  • Patent number: 11763239
    Abstract: A system and related method are provided to receive user streaming interaction data (USID) and determine a context of the interaction. Processed stream data is stored, and emotion information (EI) is created by analyzing the processed stream data, producing an EI-tagged interaction record. An overall first EI value (EIV) reflects a value of an EI at a first time, and an overall second EIV reflects a value of an EI at a second time. Indicators related to the EIs are provided on a device of a service representative (SR). When the second EIV is more negative than the first EIV, the system communicates a recommended action to the service representative that is dependent upon on the context of the interaction and the EI.

  • Patent number: 11709860
    Abstract: Some implementations herein relate to a graphical user interface (GUI) that facilitates dynamically partitioning agricultural fields into clusters on an individual agricultural field-basis using agricultural features. A map of a geographic area containing a plurality of agricultural fields may be rendered as part of a GUI. The agricultural fields may be partitioned into a first set of clusters based on a first granularity value and agricultural features of individual agricultural fields. The individual agricultural fields may be visually annotated in the GUI to convey the first set of clusters of similar agricultural fields. Upon receipt of a second granularity value different from the first granularity value, the agricultural fields may be partitioned into a second set of clusters of similar agricultural fields. The map of the geographic area may be updated so that individual agricultural fields are visually annotated to convey the second set of clusters.

  • Patent number: 11637921
    Abstract: A computing device supports both audible notifications and vibration notifications that are used to notify a user of various different events, such as an incoming voice call or text message. The computing device predicts when a user will have difficulty hearing an audible notification from the computing device due to environmental noise. In response to predicting that a user will have difficulty hearing an audible notification from the computing device due to environmental noise, the computing device enables vibration notifications (if not already enabled) on the computing device. The computing device also optionally communicates with one or more additional devices (e.g., a smartwatch or other wearable device) connected to the computing device to cause those additional devices to also enable vibration notifications. In response to subsequent events for which the user is to be notified, the computing device (and optionally additional devices connected thereto) provides a vibration notification.
