Patent number: 11138243Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system provides access to geographic information. The system generates an index including information and one or more identifiers each indicating a corresponding geographic area pertaining to the information. The system processes a query against the index to provide information aggregated for corresponding geographic areas. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for providing access to geographic information in substantially the same manners described above.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2014Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: William J. Oliver, Wojciech J. Wyzga

Patent number: 10074008Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method for facial recognition processing using biometric pre-filters. The computer identifies two eyes and a nose of a face in an image. The computer generates a triangle defined by points corresponding to the centers of the eyes and a nose-tip of the face. The computer receives a selection of a demographic characteristic. The computer determines a search range for the first triangle based on the demographic characteristic and a range of a length for at least one side of the first triangle. The computer identifies another image. The second image includes another face with a triangle formed by the eyes and nose of that face that is included in the determined search range for the first triangle. The computer determines at least one potential identity that is associated with the first detected face based on an identity of the second face.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Pawel G. Musial, William J. Oliver, Wojciech J. Wyzga

Patent number: 9733101Abstract: A method for vehicle convergence analysis based on a plurality of sparse location data is provided. The method may include obtaining a plurality of vehicle location data. The method may also include receiving a plurality of input data. The method may further include calculating, for each vehicle a probabilistic street network route based on each sequential piece of timed data and each piece of location data included in the obtained plurality of vehicle data and the received plurality of input data. The method may include identifying a plurality of overlapping routes between two vehicles based on the calculated probabilistic street network route. The method may include displaying the identified plurality of overlapping routes between the two vehicles as a meeting area.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2015Date of Patent: August 15, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Robert J.

Patent number: 9665766Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method for facial recognition processing using biometric pre-filters. The computer determines a first eye-to-eye distance of a first detected face of a first image, and wherein the eye-to-eye distance is a biometric measurement. The computer receives a selection of a demographic characteristic. The computer determines a search range for the first eye-to-eye distance based, at least in part, on the selection of the demographic characteristic, and the first eye-to-eye distance. The computer identifies a second image from a plurality of images, wherein the second image includes a second eye-to-eye distance that is included in the determined search range for the first eye-to-eye distance. The computer applies a facial recognition algorithm to the second image to determine at least one potential identity that is associated with the first detected face.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2014Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Pawel G.

Publication number: 20020107871Abstract: A system for data mining and warehousing is provided. The system includes a client computer running a web browser. In conjunction with the web browser is an applet that helps to sort, decompress, compress, encrypt and unencrypt data. A remote server is coupled to the client computer and sends the web browser search forms after the web browser requests them and receives a search query from the web browser. A connect/detect database is coupled to the remote server that receives the search query at a database view. Data is then retrieved from a database table. The database tables contain data from one or more legacy databases. The data in the legacy databases are copied to the database tables using a migration engine coupled to a migration database. The database can be search to retrieve data related to a search term or retrieve the data related to a search term and additional data associated with the data related to the search term.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 5, 2002Publication date: August 8, 2002Applicant: Knowledge Computing CorporationInventors: Wojciech J.
