  • Publication number: 20240086821
    Abstract: A computer is used to generate dynamic supply chain delivery options for a product. Data is received at the computer, regarding a delivery of a product to a customer, the delivery is implemented using a delivery system. A change in a delivery time or location of the product is determined using the computer based on updated data received at the computer. A simulation is generated, using the computer, of simulated delivery plans based on the received data and the updated data. The simulated delivery plans are evaluated to determine an updated delivery plan based on parameters. The updated delivery plan is selected based on the parameters, and communicated to the delivery system.

  • Patent number: 11711860
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a computer program product for device pairing by cognitive computing. A cognitive computing system creates a knowledge corpus about the historical activities of pairing devices of a user. The cognitive computing system predicts needs of device pairing of the user, based on analysis of the historical activities. The cognitive computing system identifies devices that can be paired in a surrounding area. An augmented reality device tracks an eye direction of the user at a device, extrapolates the eye direction to create an eye focus direction of the user, obtains from the cognitive computing system an eye focus line with an arrow pointing to the device, and creates an augmented reality overlay which shows the eye focus line. The augmented reality device pairs a user currently used device and the device, upon user approval.

  • Patent number: 11665373
    Abstract: A live event virtual experience is provided. Emotions of virtual spectators to a current situation occurring in a live event at a physical venue are determined from received data regarding reactions of the virtual spectators to the live event using bias detection. A historical sound clip that matches the emotions of the virtual spectators to the current situation occurring in the live event is retrieved. The historical sound clip that matches the emotions of the virtual spectators to the current situation occurring in the live event is input into a machine learning model that performs inverse bias mitigation to amplify bias and applies in-process adversarial fairness debiasing. The historical sound clip after performing the inverse bias mitigation to amplify the bias and applying the in-process adversarial fairness debiasing is converted to a standardized historical sound segment length. A sound representation is generated from the standardized historical sound segment length.
