Abstract: A method for classifying records by relevance to nodes of a hierarchical structure representative of a classification scheme for different classification options. The method includes receiving an input record having a plurality of record content features, and a contextual attribute indicative of a context of the receipt of the input record, retrieving relational data indicative of one or more nodes of the hierarchical structure that are associated with the contextual at-tribute of the received input record, and determining a relevance score for one or more of the nodes of the hierarchical structure to classify the input record. The relevance score of each node is determined in dependence on a comparison of the plurality of record content features of the input record relative to the classification option represented by said node, and further wherein the relevance score of each node depends on the retrieved relational data.

Abstract: A contingency forecasting system for computer generating a contingency forecast simulation of a monitored system to receive a plurality of monitored event records each describing a state of the monitored system during a monitored event of the monitored system having a monitored attribute for each of a plurality of variables. An extraction module extracts one or more of the plurality of monitored event records as exceptions if the monitored values satisfy respective regularity condition. A modification module is configured to generate one or more modified event records. A selection module is configured to select a subset of contingency event records from a set of event records having the extracted exceptional event records and the generated modified event records. A forecast simulation module is configured to apply one or more forecasting techniques to the selected subset of contingency event records to generate contingency forecast simulation parameters.

Abstract: Embodiments for detection of energy consumption anomalies in one or more energy consumption systems in a cloud computing environment by a processor. Energy consumption anomalies associated with a selected facility, a selected object, or a combination thereof may be detected and diagnosed according to feedback and simulation data generated from a scenario-based simulation operation.

Abstract: A method incrementally solves a current journey planning request from a user. The solving step performs a current search for at least one journey plan that satisfies the request by accessing a database storing journey planning information derived from results to a plurality of previous requests. The solving step stores, in the database, information discovered during the current search for responding to a subsequent request. The information discovered during the current search for responding to the request includes a reusable portion of a search graph, pairs of a state and a lower bound on a best arrival time and pairs of a state and an exact value for the arrival time. The lower bound is employed to increase an accuracy of a pre-computer heuristic function which guides the search based on state dominance in search spaces in which heuristic values are back propagated and stored in the database.

Abstract: Embodiments for providing data content consumption support by a processor. Data from one or more data sources may be captured and received by one or more data capturing devices while a user is consuming the data on the one or more data sources. A domain knowledge may be automatically updated with the data. A response may be provided to one or more queries based upon information accessed from the knowledge domain.

Abstract: Embodiments for implementing intelligent automation of opportunity transaction workflows by a processor. One or more tasks identified in an existing transaction opportunity workflow suitable for automation may be automated in a current transaction opportunity workflow. The automated tasks may be scheduled and executed in the current transaction opportunity workflow. The automated tasks in the current transaction opportunity workflow may be monitored.

Abstract: Embodiments for intelligent career planning assessment in a computing environment by a processor. A career planning pathway of a career planning model for a user may be monitored for achieving a career goal. One or more deviations from the career planning pathway may be identified according a user profile, one or more behaviors of the user, one or more environmental factors, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: A system and method for combined route planning and opportunistic searching in variable costs environments are presented. A route for a vehicle may be dynamically planned according to an opportunistic search of an unknown domain to achieve one or more secondary objectives while both progressing towards a primary objective and minimizing travel costs using one or more Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and computing devices and a knowledge of a location of the vehicle relative to one or more waypoints.

Abstract: A method and system are provided. The method includes incrementally solving, by a processor-based journey plan incremental searcher, a current journey planning request from a user. The solving step includes performing a current search for at least one journey plan that satisfies the current journey planning request by accessing a database storing journey planning information derived from results to a plurality of previous journey planning requests. The solving step further includes storing, in the database, at least part of the information discovered during the current search for responding to a subsequent journey planning request. The solving step also includes providing the at least one journey plan to the user.
