  • Patent number: 10762169
    Abstract: A system for determining adverse effects associated with a substance includes a side-effect recognizer, a relationship extractor, a processor, and a reporting system. The side-effect recognizer utilizes a first recurrent neural network (RNN) to identify a first portion of received data associated with an adverse effect to thereby determine the adverse effect associated with the received data. The relationship extractor utilizes a second RNN to identify a second portion of the received data associated with a substance and a third portion of the received data that indicates a relationship between the substance and the adverse effect to thereby determine the substance associated with the received data and the relationship between the substance and the adverse effect. The processor is in communication with the adverse effect recognizer and the substance relationship extractor and aggregates and relates the adverse effect, substance, and relationship.

  • Patent number: 10762253
    Abstract: Increases in global population have led to unprecedented challenges in meeting every day needs. Vehicle parking is one such challenge given the limited parking spaces available at any destination, whether at work, at a shopping center, or any other location. A parking resource analysis system includes a stepwise simulator system and a role based access system. The stepwise simulator system tests, simulates, and tunes specific models for issuing parking control actions with respect to a specific lot. The role based access system may be physically located at the parking lot. The role based access system implements dynamic loading or dynamic access of role specific models for issuing parking control actions tailored to the role of the particular individual searching for a parking space.

  • Patent number: 10762340
    Abstract: A device receives, as part of a gesture translation service, data that depicts gestures, wherein the data is image data or multimedia data. The device converts a set of frames that include the data to another set of frames that include modified data identifying a grayscale or black and white depiction of the gestures and generates graphical representations of the gestures identified by the modified data. The device selects, using a matching technique, a graphical representation of corresponding gestures that matches or satisfies a threshold level of similarity with the graphical representations of the gestures identified by the modified data. The device identifies response data that is representative of the corresponding gestures based on the response data being stored in association with an identifier of the graphical representation that has been selected. The device provides the response data to be displayed, via an interface, as text data or audio data.

  • Patent number: 10762524
    Abstract: A device obtains data, for a current media plan, that includes a cost adjustment factor, a duration of an unexecuted portion of the current media plan that is divisible into periods of time, and an unutilized budget, for the duration, that is divisible into budget portions based on the periods of time. The device generates a predictive baseline cost parameter by adjusting, by the cost adjustment factor, a baseline cost parameter of a previously implemented baseline media plan. The device predicts cost metrics for the current media plan using the predictive baseline cost parameter, and predicts performance metrics for the current media plan based on the cost metrics and predictive baseline cost parameter. The device determines target cost per point (CPP) values for the current media plan based on the cost metrics and performance metrics, and causes an action to be performed based on the target CPP values.

  • Publication number: 20200272915
    Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based data processing system employs a trained AI model for extracting features of products from various product classes and building a product ontology from the features. The product ontology is used to respond to user queries with product recommendations and customizations. Training data for the generation of the AI model for feature extraction is initially accessed and verified to determine of the training data meets a data density requirement. If the training data does not meet the data density requirement, data from one of a historic source or external sources is added to the training data. One of the plurality of AI models is selected for training based on the degree of overlap and the inter-class distance between the datasets of the various product classes within the training data.

  • Patent number: 10754718
    Abstract: All modern enterprises rely completely on the continual correct execution of hardware and software resources that constitute the information technology (IT) infrastructure environment for the business. At the same time, hardware and software resources continually evolve, and the enterprise must often make changes to its infrastructure to incorporate the new or updated hardware and software resources. These changes are risky, and failure to properly execute the changes can result in infrastructure roll-backs and other failure modes that are often very disruptive to the enterprise. A guidance system for changes in infrastructure increases the likelihood of successful implementation of the changes. In some implementations, for example, the guidance system provides clear guidelines and checklists that depict success criteria, along with a scoring interface that pro-actively indicates the factors that can go wrong, and how to mitigate and plan for the factors in advance.

  • Patent number: 10754328
    Abstract: A device intelligence architecture configures and controls on-site devices and performs environment monitoring to facilitate effective device functionality. The architecture facilitates efficient use of devices (e.g., robotics) in an unstructured and dynamic environment, which will allow deployments in many more environments than is currently possible. The architecture stores and shares information between segregated devices to avoid the silo effect of vendor specific stacks. The architecture also models capabilities of devices and maps actions to intelligence packages to deploy a specific intelligence package to the device. The architecture also implements distributed processing. For instance, computationally intensive tasks may be offloaded to the back end processing, with action updates resulting from the processing pushed to the devices.
