Abstract: A system and associated method provides a visualization of a life cycle of a trade order. The visualization may be in the form of a tree structure with a plurality of linked nodes. Each node may be associated with an event that occurs during the life cycle of the trade. A monitoring system receives information associated with a plurality of events associated with the trade order, generates a plurality of nodes based on the received information, stores identifiers associated with each of the plurality of nodes, and links the plurality of nodes based on the identifiers to create the tree structure. The monitoring system also performs a verification process to determine whether the visualization is missing information or includes incorrect information and alerts to a discrepancy identified during the verification process.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a computer implemented method in a data processing system comprising a processor and a memory comprising instructions, which are executed by the processor to cause the processor to implement the method of identifying negative communications from a plurality of electronic communications, including: extracting a plurality of terms from the plurality of electronic communications, wherein the plurality of terms include subjects, action verbs, adjectives and business objects; identifying variations of each term and grouping the variations for each term to form a dictionary; generating a co-occurrence graph to illustrate relationships between different terms in the plurality of terms; assigning each term with an entity type; identifying a negative intent for each business object using the co-occurrence graph; providing one or more semantic rules, and identifying one or more negative communications having the negative intent based on the one or more semantic rules.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for detecting market abuse in a data processing system, the method comprising: collecting a plurality of first events associated with a first stock trade occurring within a predetermined period of time; grouping the plurality of first events into different event groups, each group having a different type of first events; encoding each first event as one or more characters, and encoding each type of first events as a first string; collecting all the first strings in a sequence corresponding to different types of first events; feeding the sequence of first strings into a trained machine learning model; and determining, by the trained machine learning model, whether there is market abuse in the first stock trade.

Abstract: Under the present invention, item verification is automated and expedited. Specifically, items to be purchased can be scanned by the shopper using a barcode reader (e.g., a scanner), attached to or positioned near the checkout station. As items are scanned, they are identified based on their barcode, and added to an item list. Item verification can then be performed at checkout using imaging technology. Specifically, as items are scanned, an item verification unit will capture an appearance thereof (via a camera). Item verification software within the item verification unit will access a database that associates items with their images/appearances. The appearance will be compared for consistency to the identity as determined based on the scan. In general, the item verification unit is a separate unit from the cash register, but adapted to work in conjunction therewith (e.g., as a pluggable system, via wireless communication, etc.).

Abstract: A method, system, and article for dynamic management of two or more operating system images for at least two client machines operating in a computer system sub-network. Different physical areas of the sub-network support separate image of the operating system images. As the client machines may be individually subject to movement within the sub-network, an appropriate operating system image is dynamically selected and uploaded to one or more of the individual client machines based upon the physical location thereof.

Abstract: A computer system generates video based cohorts. Digital video data is processed to identify a set of color and texture based attributes associated with clothing worn by a set of objects. The digital video data comprises metadata describing the set of objects. The set of color and texture based attributes are analyzed using cohort criteria to form a result. The cohort criteria specify attributes that are associated with members of a given cohort. A set of cohorts is generated based on the result. Each cohort in the set of cohorts comprises a subset of objects from the set of objects that share at least one color and texture based attribute in common.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for forming a business entity model. A selection of business components is received from a business function model to be selected business components. Activities are found in an industry reference model to be selected activities corresponding to selected business components. Based on the selected activities, industry reference model is scoped to be a scoped industry reference model, which includes reducing business process models in the industry reference model to selected business process models corresponding to selected activities, reducing data models in the industry reference model to selected data models corresponding to use cases of selected activities, and reducing service operations in the industry reference model to selected service operations corresponding to the selected activities. Selected activities and scoped industry reference model are customized.
