  • Publication number: 20230186115
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for data collection and development as well as providing user interaction policies are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes collecting contextual data for a first subset of a plurality of users. The method further includes generating a first set of contextual profiles for the first subset of the plurality of users based on the collected contextual data. Additionally, the method includes training one or more imputation models to develop the contextual data for the second subset of the plurality of users. The method also includes generating the contextual data for the second subset of the plurality of users using the one or more imputation models. Further, the method includes generating a second set of contextual profiles for the second subset of the plurality of users based on the generated contextual data for the second subset of the plurality of users.

  • Publication number: 20230051289
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods of updating patient scheduling information. In one aspect, the method includes receiving patient data for a patient having a scheduled appointment on a future date, the patient data including a metric value for a biomarker and time and date information associated with the scheduled appointment. The method further includes comparing the metric value with one or more conditions established based at least in part on a patient history of the patient or population health data. The method also includes, after determining that the metric value satisfies at least one of the one or more conditions, rescheduling the scheduled appointment.

  • Patent number: 8421747
    Abstract: Object detection and user setting techniques are described. In an implementation, an object placed on a surface of the client is detected by the client. A determination is made as to which of a plurality of users correspond to the detected object. One or more user settings are located that correspond to the determined user.

  • Publication number: 20100149096
    Abstract: A computing system is provided to make managing the devices and content on a network easier by making the process intuitive, tactile and gestural. The computing system includes a display surface for graphically displaying the devices connected to a network and the content stored on those devices. A sensor is used to recognize activity on the display surface so that gestures may be used to control a device on the network and transport data between devices on the network. Additionally, new devices can be provided access to communicate on the network based on interaction with the display device.

  • Publication number: 20100153996
    Abstract: A computing system includes a display surface that displays an electronic program guide. A sensor is used to sense the presence of an object adjacent to the display surface. Based on the data from the sensor about the object adjacent to the display surface interacting with the electronic program guide, the system determines which gesture of a set of possible gestures the object is performing. For example, the system may determine that a hand is sliding across the display surface or rotating an icon on the display surface. The system will perform a function related to the electronic program guide based on the determined gesture.

  • Publication number: 20100077431
    Abstract: A user interface having zoom functionality is described. In an implementation, a user interface is displayed having representations of a plurality of content. Each of the representations is formed using a respective picture-in-picture stream of respective content. When an input is received to select a particular one of the representations, the respective content is displayed by zooming in from the picture-in-picture stream of the respective content to a respective video stream of the respective content.
