“…Another body of work for reminder systems is based on the context. In [6], the author proposes an offline strategy to collect context in the form of stored messages, emails, logs, chat history, call history, and events such as birthdays. However, they do a very highlevel analysis of emails, messages, etc., for composing reminders such as reminding missed class, unread emails, and so on.…”

Intelligent recommendation and reminder systems are the need of the fast-pacing life. Current intelligent systems such as Siri, Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortona, etc., have limited capability. For example, if you want to wake up at 6 am because you have an upcoming trip, you have to set the alarm manually. Besides, these systems do not recommend or remind what else to carry, such as carrying an umbrella during a likely rain. The present work proposes a system that takes an email as input and returns a recommendation-cumreminder list. As a first step, we parse the emails, recognize the entities using named entity recognition (NER). In the second step, information retrieval over the web is done to identify nearby places, climatic conditions, etc. Imperative sentences from the reviews of all places are extracted and passed to the object extraction module. The main challenge lies in extracting the objects (items) of interest from the review. To solve it, a modified Machine Reading Comprehension-NER (MRC-NER) model is trained to tag objects of interest by formulating annotation rules as a query. The objects so found are recommended to the user one day in advance. The final reminder list of objects is pruned by our proposed model for tracking objects kept during the "packing activity. " Eventually, when the user leaves for the event/trip, an alert is sent containing the reminding list items. Our approach achieves superior performance compared to several baselines by as much as 30% on recall and 10% on precision.

“…From our analysis, we find that people usually suggest reminder items on travel websites such as Tripadvisor 5 in reviews. However, most of them might go waste as users are hardly reading them due to the explosion of big data 6 . As such, users feel lost while looking for relevant and meaningful information from travel websites.…”
