  • Patent number: 10026330
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include computerized methods and systems, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for objectively characterizing an impact of an intervention on individuals or groups. For example, a computing system may obtain, and store in a data lake, intervention data identifying interventions, and objective data characterizing an impact of these interventions on at least one individual. The computer system may also populate a queryable interface with query parameters (e.g., at least one of the interventions and at least a portion of the objective data), which may be presented to a user via a device. The computer system may obtain stored intervention and objective data consistent with a received query, which may be provided to the device for presentation to the user. The disclosed embodiments also provide a visual representation of trends in the stored data and candidate interventions the address the identified trends without user input.

  • Patent number: 10019640
    Abstract: An intelligent automatic license plate recognition (IALPR) system implements technical solutions that improve the accuracy of automatic license plate recognition. The IALPR analyzes an image of a vehicle proximate to a toll collection point using optical character recognition (OCR), and determines candidate license plate identifications based, at least in part, on the corresponding OCR confidence level. The IALPR can also perform fingerprinting for candidate license plate images and matching analysis with a knowledge base, resulting in additional confidence levels. The IALPR can also perform behavioral analysis on the candidate license plate identifications, including trip context analysis, historical behavioral analysis, or other analytics. The IALPR can generate an overall confidence level for the candidate license plate identifications responsive to the OCR and vehicle fingerprint confidence levels and the behavioral analysis.

  • Patent number: 10015167
    Abstract: An extensible key management system includes a developer services portal for accessing an application. The system may identify initiation via the developer services portal of an association of the application with an external API of a third party provider service and automatically obtain a sub-key for the external API from the third party provider service on behalf of a developer of the application. The sub-key may be obtained in accordance with authorization provided by a master key previously provided from the third party provider service. The system may map an association between the sub-key, the application and the external API and store the association. Upon receipt of a service call message resulting from a request from a user device executing the application, the system may identify and replace a developer API key included in the service call message with the sub-key based on the stored association.

  • Patent number: 10007849
    Abstract: Computerized methods and systems, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, may detect event shown within digital video content captured by one or more video cameras, and correlate these detected events to real-world conditions that may not be captured within the digital video data. For example, a computing system may detect events shown within digital video content captured by one or more video cameras, and may obtain data that identifies at least one external event. The computer system may establish a predictive model that correlates values of event parameters that characterize the detected and external events during a first time period, and may apply the predictive model to an event parameter that characterizes an additional event detected during a second time period. Based on an outcome of the predictive model, the computing system may determine an expected value of the external event parameter during the second time period.

  • Publication number: 20180173808
    Abstract: According to an example, intent and bot based query guidance may include receiving a query associated with a domain, and identifying, based on an analysis of the query, an intent of the query by extracting an action associated with the query and an entity associated with the query. An intent model associated with the query may be generated based on a mapping of the action and the entity with a domain model of the domain. An intent domain specific language representation of the intent model associated with the query may be generated. Based on an analysis of the intent domain specific language representation, a plurality of bots may be identified, and a parameterized bot chain may be generated to respond to the query. A runtime binding of bots of the parameterized bot chain may be performed, and invoked to generate the response to the query.

  • Patent number: 9998286
    Abstract: A system may provide hardware acceleration for blockchain-based record entry. Client circuitry may provide record entry information to node circuitry. The node circuitry may compile the record entry information into a record entry for submission to blockchain management circuitry (BMC). The BMC may access a consensus operating procedure. The BMC may apply the consensus operating procedure to the record entry to gain append permissions for a blockchain. After completing the consensus operating procedure, the BMC may append a block generated based on the record entry to the blockchain. Accordingly, the system may ensure that blocks added to the blockchain were generated in compliance with the consensus operating procedure.

  • Patent number: 9996749
    Abstract: Computerized methods and systems, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, may detect events shown within digital video content captured by one or more video cameras during a prior time period, and predict an occurrence of an additional event during a future time period based on time-varying patterns among the detected events. For example, a computing system may detect events shown within digital video content captured by one or more video cameras, and may establish a predictive model that identifies one or more time-varying patterns in event parameter values that characterize the detected events within the prior time period. Based on an outcome of the predictive model, the computing system may determine an expected value of one of the event parameters during the second time period.

  • Publication number: 20180150550
    Abstract: According to an example, customized visualization based intelligence augmentation may include accessing, based on a user request, a domain model, and mapping the user request to the domain model. Based on the mapping, a guided query that includes a relevant refinement question may be generated. A response may be received to the refinement question. Based on the received response, a refined user request may be generated, and classified into an intelligence augmentation category. Based on the classification, an intelligence augmentation analyzer may be accessed to analyze the refined user request to generate an insight output that is classified to a visualization. Based on the classification of the insight output to the visualization, responsive to the user request, a display of the visualization may be generated.

  • Publication number: 20180143891
    Abstract: A mobile application portfolio management system that estimates performance of a mobile application portfolio on various metrics and provides suggestions for improvements is disclosed. The mobile application portfolio manager calculates different KPIs for estimating performance of the mobile applications within the mobile application portfolio. The KPIs that underperform their respective thresholds are analyzed to isolate the elements of the KPIs that result in subpar performances by the KPIs. Various corrective actions to improve the performance of the elements of the KPIs can be derived based on the rules configured within the mobile application portfolio management system.

  • Patent number: 9967096
    Abstract: A system includes circuitry for rewriting blockchains in a non-tamper-evident or tamper-evident operation using a key secret held by a trusted party. The blockchains may include a series of blocks secured by a chameleon hash that may prevent non-tamper-evident rewrites by non-trusted parties that are not in possession of the key secret. Rewrite circuitry of the system may determine randomness data from the chameleon hash and altered data from a rewrite. The randomness data may be written to the randomness field of a block overwritten with the altered data such that the block remains coding-consistent with the chameleon hash and other blocks in the blockchain.
