Patent number: 11593419Abstract: One embodiment provides a method that includes determining candidate ontologies for alignment from multiple available knowledge bases. An initial target ontology is selected from the candidate ontologies and correcting the initial selected ontology with received refinement input. Concepts in the selected initial ontology are aligned with concepts of the target ontology using a deep learning hierarchical classification with received review input. A user is assisted to build, change and grow the selected initial ontology exploiting both the target ontology and new facts extracted from unstructured data.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2018Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Petar Ristoski, Anna Lisa Gentile, Daniel Gruhl, Alfredo Alba, Chris Kau, Chad DeLuca, Linda Kato, Ismini Lourentzou, Steven R.

Patent number: 11588625Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use with a physical computing device to process a data access request. The requested data is encrypted with two keys, including a physical device authentication key and a transient key. Access to the data requires authentication on both the device level and situational level. Device situational data is monitored, which includes selectively enabling access to the requested data and de-activation of the transient key in response to a change in the monitored situational data. The transient key de-activation removes access to the requested data.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2021Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Chad DeLuca, Daniel Gruhl, Linda Kato, Cartic Ramakrishnan, Chris Kau, Alfredo Alba

Patent number: 11163952Abstract: One embodiment provides a method for relevant language-independent terminology extraction from content, the method including extracting lexicon items from the content based on context extraction patterns using statistical processing. Feedback on the extracted lexicon items is received to automatically tune scores and thresholds for the context extraction patterns. Available Linked Data is leveraged for a bootstrap source. The relevant language-independent terminology extraction is bootstrapped using the bootstrap source.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2018Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Anna Lisa Gentile, Daniel Gruhl, Petar Ristoski, Steven R.

Patent number: 11151175Abstract: One embodiment provides a method for on-demand relation extraction from unstructured text that includes obtaining a text corpus of domain related unstructured text. Representations of the unstructured text that capture entity-specific syntactic knowledge are created. Initial user seeds of informative examples containing relations are received. Extraction models in a neural network are trained using the initial user seeds. Performance information and a confidence score are provided for each prediction for each extraction model. A next batch of informative examples are identified for annotation from the text corpus based on training a neural network classifier on a pool of labeled informative examples. Stopping criteria is determined based on differences of the performance information and the confidence score in relation to parameters for each extraction model. Based on the stopping criteria, it is determined whether to retrain a particular extraction model after the informative examples have been labeled.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2018Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Ismini Lourentzou, Anna Lisa Gentile, Daniel Gruhl, Alfredo Alba, Chris Kau, Chad DeLuca, Linda Kato, Petar Ristoski, Steven R.

Patent number: 11044078Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use with a physical computing device to process a data access request. The associated data is encrypted with a key pair that includes both a persistent key and a transient key. Both keys require authentication to access the requested data. The transient key is subject to real-time monitoring, with changes in situational data selectively affecting the validity of the transient key, and selectively changing the physical state of the physical computing device.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2018Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Chad DeLuca, Daniel Gruhl, Linda Kato, Cartic Ramakrishnan, Chris Kau, Alfredo Alba

Patent number: 10887267Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use with a computer platform to process and physically convey a notification to a physical medium. In response to receipt, a notification is processed against a hierarchical arrangement of categories. The notification is processed in real-time, including translation of the notification with respect to a tier in the hierarchy. A delivery mechanism and associated instruction is dynamically determined, which includes adaptively assigning the translated notification together with a delivery instruction to a destination device. A physical medium and associated physical device are identified, and the notification is physically conveyed to the physical device across the physical medium.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2018Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Daniel Gruhl, Chris Kau, Linda Kato, Alfredo Alba, Chad DeLuca

Publication number: 20200118233Abstract: Examples of techniques for rating and notifying volunteer responders are disclosed. Aspects include receiving a notification of a medical emergency at a first location and obtaining a plurality of candidate volunteer responders from a volunteer responder database. Aspects also include ranking the plurality of candidate volunteer responders based on a location of each of the plurality of candidate volunteer responders, a type of the medical emergency, and a characteristic of each of the plurality of candidate volunteer responders. Aspects further include notifying a highest ranked candidate volunteer from the plurality of candidate volunteer responders of the medical emergency, wherein the notification includes the type of the medical emergency and the first location.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2018Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventors: CHAD DELUCA, KEVIN D.
