Abstract: The present design is directed to a system for measuring values qualitatively across a terrain including multiple dimensions using cognitive computing techniques, comprising a plurality of event reception components configured to operate on each event in a stream relevant to the terrain, the plurality of event reception components including a threshold application component configured to apply a threshold to each element in the stream, a terrain updater configured to update the terrain based on at least one event, an outlier analysis module configured to determine any outlier in the stream of events, a threshold violation predictor configured to predict threshold violations based on the stream of events, a time-ordered behavior evaluator configured to evaluate behavior based on the stream of events, and a graph updater to update a graph based on the stream of events.

Abstract: The present design is directed to a cognitive system including a receiver configured to receive a set of actors and associated actor information and receive assets and their associated asset information, a creation apparatus configured to create data dictionary entries for a taxonomy based on the set of actors and the assets and create a cognitive model using the data dictionary entries for a time period, and a computing apparatus configured to compute trust of the cognitive model as a fuzzy number and activate the cognitive model if trust of the cognitive model is above a cognitive model trust threshold. When the cognitive model is activated, the cognitive modeling system is configured to schedule a collection of tasks to run that perform regular extraction of actions from an original data source and perform at least one anomaly analysis associated with the cognitive model.

Abstract: The present design is directed to a system for detecting and adjusting qualitative contexts across multiple dimensions for multiple actors with cognitive computing techniques including a series of periodic execution components configured to operate over full or partial sets of received data, the series of periodic components comprising a peer to peer analyzer configured to detect anomalous behaviors among work-specific peer actors sharing similar types tasks, an actor behavior analyzer configured to examine change in an actor's behavior over time by comparing the similarity of past behavior and current behavior, a rate of change predictor configured to study changes in behavior over time for peer to peer performance according to the peer to peer analyzer, actor behavior change according to the actor behavior analyzer, and actor correlation analysis, and a semantic rule analyzer configured to encode conditional, provisional, cognitive, operational, and functional knowledge, and a plurality of signal managers.
