`The accused instrumentality practices a method performed in a system comprising user navigable nodes (e.g.,
`Gucci.com has different product categories (nodes) such as What’s New, Women, Men, Children, etc. for selection
`by a user), documents (e.g., products webpages) attached to the user navigable nodes (e.g., Gucci.com has different
`products categories (nodes) such as What’s New, Women, Men, Children, etc. for selection by a user), keywords
`(e.g., products webpages are tagged using keywords such as boot, etc.) associated with the user navigable nodes (e.g.,
`Gucci.com has different products categories (nodes) such as What’s New, Women, Men, Children, etc. for selection
`by a user), and having search (e.g., search box) and navigation capability that allows users to move from node to
`node via links between the nodes (e.g., from the home page node, users can go to nodes such as “What’s New”,
`“Women”, “Men”, “Children”, etc.; and then within a node, such as Men, Gucci.com contains nodes of particular
`categories such as “Bags”, “Ready to Wear”, “Shoes”, etc. which in turn contain particular products nodes) and make
`selections when at individual nodes (e.g., a desired products node).

`keyword), navigating through the system to a current node (e.g., a products node desired by the user) from the user
`navigable node (e.g., home page node) based upon at least one additional input (e.g., a user input to select a desired
`products) from the user that was provided while at the user navigable node (e.g., home page node).

`the selection of the desired product by the user.

`
`The accused instrumentality practices following presentation of the at least one response (e.g., displaying at the user
`device), learning one or more associations between the unknown word (e.g., a word which is not a keyword such as
`“drsse”) and one or more keywords (e.g., keywords related to the product node) from the documents (e.g., webpage
`of a product) attached to the current node (e.g., a products node), such that a direct relationship is formed between
`the unknown word (e.g., a word which is not a keyword such as “drsse”) and the one or more keywords (e.g.,
`keywords related to the products node).
`
`As shown below, when a user searches for “drsse”, a misspelled word, the accused instrumentality directs the user
`to a desired product based on the user selection. The accused instrumentality learns the misspelled word and
`associates it with the keywords related to the desired product. Shown page has different results then that are available
`
`following presentation
`of the at least one
`response, learning one
`or more associations
`between the unknown
`word and one or more
`keywords from the
`documents attached to
`the current node, such
`that a direct
`relationship is formed
