  • Patent number: 11640698
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programming products for generating, rendering and/or displaying a computer-generated virtual environment as augmented reality and/or virtual reality. The physical boundaries containing the active area where the virtual environments are rendered and displayed are established. Based on the constraints and characteristics of the physical boundaries, virtual environments are mapped using assets from real, historical and/or fictitious locations. The assets can be dynamically re-sized and distanced to fit constraints of the physical space. Based on historical levels of interactivity with the selected environments, the virtual assets can be sorted and tagged as points of interest or filler assets, then mapped to the virtual environment using GAN technology and other machine learning techniques to re-create unique versions of the selected environments.

  • Publication number: 20230111056
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programming products for dynamically managing the uninstallation and/or re-installation of software applications stored or accessed by a computing system, including mobile devices. Management of the applications by the system can be periodically managed automatically or based on recommendations. Management of applications being uninstalled or reinstalled may be determined based on a rate a user accesses the application and/or data published or accessible by an application storefront, such as user reviews, storefront rankings, user feedback and uninstallation rates of the applications by other users. Applications experiencing a decreased level of average user satisfaction below a predetermined threshold can be proposed for deletion or automatically deleted. Replacement of underperforming or unsatisfactory applications with alternative applications having similar functionality but a higher rate of user satisfaction can be recommended or installed.

  • Patent number: 11625237
    Abstract: A computer generates a profile, where the profile comprises one or more programs to monitor. The computer determines a baseline for each of the one or more programs by collecting one or more values associated with a normal operation for each of the one or more programs. The computer detects an anomaly based on deviation of the one or more values from the normal operation. Based on identifying a playbook for the anomaly, the computer applies the playbook on the program from the one or more programs. The computer organizes chat services based on identifying one or more members associated with the anomaly.

  • Publication number: 20230100411
    Abstract: Head movements can be detected by various sensors. The head movements are tracked over time, and the data is stored in a knowledgebase. User actions are also detected and tracked in the knowledgebase. Therefore, associations between head movements and user actions can be learned and predicted. Upon detecting a head movement associated with a user action, the user action can be executed.
