  • Patent number: 11935080
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to providing intelligent alerting and automation for marketing analytics software. In implementation, intelligent alerting is initiated by a user, which enables deep learning models to analyze various data patterns. Intelligent alerting learns about preferences and data consumption patterns of the user with marketing analytics software. Intelligent alerting also accounts for and learns from any manually created alerts set up by the user and/or alerts created automatically by anomaly detection. Intelligent alerting analyzes all other users within the organization of the user to find similar users based on their consumption patterns. An on-demand game may be provided to the user to determine the criticality of one metric change over another. This enables intelligent alerting to automatically provide alerts which pass a critical threshold of importance to the user and context to help the user understand why a metric changes in a significant way.

  • Patent number: 11704782
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method allows a wait time to be determined automatically for a queue area. The queue is part of an environment and includes defined entrance and exit areas. A series of images showing the environment are received over time. A wait time associated with the queue area is determined by detecting a location of a object corresponding to a person in a first one of the images; associating the object with an identifier uniquely identifying the object in the first one of the images matching objects in later images; and determining the wait time based on times associated with an image in which an object associated with the identifier enters the queue area through the defined entrance area and later one of the images in which an object associated with the identifier exits the queue area through the defined exit area. An indication of the wait time is output.

  • Patent number: 11620599
    Abstract: An improved way of managing the labor expended on a construction project, whether a small-scale or large-scale, includes a system, program and method that will use the estimate of labor for a project as an input to the labor management system. The percent complete of the project will be a calculation of installed equipment as opposed to a perceived percent complete of the project. The calculation will be compared to the percent of labor hours used to then determine the state of the construction project. The labor management calculation will be facilitated through a user interface where the user can highlight one or more portions of the virtual project, where the one or more portions represent one or more installed units of the project, such as installed equipment.
