  • Patent number: 11843629
    Abstract: In an approach, a processor receives a report of a push notification identified as spam. A processor determines that a threshold number of push notifications identified as spam has been exceeded. A processor, responsive to determining that the threshold number of push notifications identified as spam has been exceeded, performs an action with respect to a sender of the push notification.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220360850
    Abstract: A computer presents digital content securely. The computer identifies a display device presenting digital content to an observation zone. The computer receives a feed from a sensor monitoring the observation zone. The computer identifies content of the feed using a convolutional neural network (CNN). The computer, upon detecting a trigger condition associated with said observation zone in response the identification by the CNN, takes at least one substantially-contemporaneous remedial action.

  • Patent number: 10834219
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for providing push notifications to an active device of a user. The method includes one or more processors identifying a push notification for distribution to at least a first user, wherein the first user is associated with at least two computing devices. The method further includes retrieving historical push notification interaction information that includes data of the first user dismissing push notifications on the at least two computing devices and the first user opening push notifications on the at least two computing devices. The method further includes determining a prediction of an active computing device, of the at least two computing devices, for the first user based on the retrieved historical push notification interaction information. The method further includes the push notification to the predicted active computing device of the first user.
