  • Publication number: 20240152736
    Abstract: A method (700) for predicting, for each device included in a set of devices, whether the device will change state at a particular future point in time. The method includes, for a first device within the set of devices, obtaining a first state value indicating the current state of the first device. The method also includes, for a second device within the set of devices, obtaining a second state value indicating the current state of the second device. The method also includes forming an input vector, the input vector comprising the first state value, the second state value, and a temporal feature (e.g., a set of one or more time values indicating the current time). The method also includes inputting the input vector into a trained machine learning (ML) model.

  • Publication number: 20180234822
    Abstract: A method and a control node for handling incoming communication directed to a first wireless device when a user of the first wireless device is driving a vehicle. The control node detects a second wireless device that is present in the vehicle. When an incoming communication directed to the first wireless device is received, the control node forwards the incoming communication to the second wireless device, to enable a user of the second wireless device to act upon the incoming communication. Thereby, the first wireless device will not emit any sound or vibration and its user will not be distracted and tempted to look at the device and/or respond to the communication. The control node may be implemented in the first wireless device, a network node or a vehicle node.

  • Patent number: 9489638
    Abstract: A method for propagating user preference information in a communications network, in which the user preference information may be available for a subset of users within the network. The method comprises generating individual user attribute vectors, based on user historical data and estimating user preference information. The method further comprises defining a community structure for the network and generating a stacked representation for users, the representation comprising the user attribute vector augmented with an aggregated vector of estimated user preferences of members of the user's community. The method further comprises learning a function relating the stacked representation to user preference, using the subset of users, and applying the learned function to users outside the subset.
