Abstract: A method and corresponding system for improving an interaction process in a social network for a user with at least one other person is provided. The method comprises a step of, in a training phase, acquiring sensor data on at least a user state and interaction data on a social interaction of a human person with the at least one other person. The acquired sensor data and the interaction data is then analyzed in order to generate classifier data from the acquired sensor data and the acquired interaction data. In a subsequent application phase, the method acquires current sensor data on at least the user state of the at least one other person, predicts an interaction score for the user based on the acquired current sensor data and the classifier data, and generates an interaction identifier for the user for an interaction with the at least one other person in the social network based on the predicted interaction score.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for reminding a person to perform an activity. The system comprise a robot configured to carry out different behaviors, wherein the activity and its corresponding trigger condition are set by a user and the system selects, from the different behaviors, a first behavior assigned to the activity, senses the person, determines, based on the sensors information, whether or not the activity is performed by the person in accordance with the trigger condition. The robot carries out the selected behavior if the activity is not performed by the person in accordance with the trigger condition, wherein after or during the selected behavior is carried out, an activity of the person is determined based on the information derived from the sensors to select a second behavior from the different behaviors.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system for continuously sharing behavioral states of a creature. The system comprises a robot configured to carry out different behaviors, at least one sensing means for automatically sensing the creature, a determining means for continuously determining the state of the creature based on information derived from the at least one sensing means and a selecting means for selecting, from the different behaviors, a behavior that is assigned to the determined state, wherein the robot is configured to carry out the selected behavior.

Abstract: This document describes a computer-implemented method for guiding a user through a travel check-in procedure. The method includes receiving passenger identification information associated with a passenger checking in for a travel segment, and determining a check-in status of the passenger using the passenger identification information. The method also includes generating a check-in workflow based on the check-in status of the passenger. The method further includes providing for display on a user interface a current step in the check-in workflow, the current step corresponding to a current action in the check-in workflow to be completed by a user, and upon request of the user to continue to a next step in the workflow, providing for display on the user interface the next step in the check-in workflow, the next step corresponding to a next action in the check-in workflow to be completed by the user.

Abstract: This document describes a computer-implemented method for facilitating a check-in finalization process for a travel passenger. The method includes receiving one or more check-in parameters related to a check-in procedure for a passenger checking in for a travel segment, and determining from the received check-in parameters a check-in workflow status corresponding to which of a plurality of steps of the check-in procedure have been completed. The method also includes identifying one or more finalization actions that are available for finalizing the check-in procedure based on the check-in workflow status. The method further includes determining a primary finalization action from the one or more finalization actions, the primary finalization action being the finalization action most likely to be taken to finalize the check-in procedure.

Abstract: Scarce resources, such as goods and/or services, can be allocated to customers according to score values associated with each customer that is a candidate to receive such resources in order to achieve an optimal allocation of resources, as determined by a business or other entity or organization that provides the goods and/or services. Each score value is generated automatically according to a set of predetermined rules based on profile information associated with the customer, including attributes of the customer, and based on information regarding goods and/or services purchased by the customer. A current context is used to determine an event and/or an event class, and the set of rules associated with the event or event class is used in generating the score value for one or more customers that are implicated by the current context, such as individuals affected by or eligible for the event.
