Abstract: In automatically modifying message signatures, a system extract message content from the message text from a sender to a recipient. Using at least the message content, the system determines: a relationship context capturing a nature of the relationship between the sender and the recipient, a temporal context capturing temporal features of the message content, a historical context capturing a nature of electronic interactions between the sender and the recipient over time, and a tone category capturing a primary tone and strength of the primary tone of the message content. The system selects a signature template associated with contextual data that includes the relationship, temporal, and historical contexts and the tone category. The signature template includes a set of sections where a signature is modified by inserting section values associated with the contextual data into the set of sections. The modified signature is inserted into the message text.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system, and program product for event detection and/or notification of events occurring. A user monitoring system sends messages based on determinations of impacts associated with the user. The monitoring system receives data from at least one computing device affixed to a user. The data corresponds to a pattern of movement of the user. The monitoring system determines that the user is performing an activity that has an associated known pattern of impacts. The system generates a customized pattern of impacts for the activity by modifying the known pattern of impacts based on the pattern of movement of the user. The system generates a message based on a comparison of measured movement data of the user and the customized pattern of impacts.

A parse tree representation is then generated based on the natural language content, wherein visual characteristics of each node of a plurality of nodes within the parse tree representation depend on the part of speech and slot name of each word. A bounding box identifying a span category is then generated around a set of nodes on the parse tree representation by a machine learning model.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for implementing enhanced cognitive searches optimized to integrate deployment with development testing. An initial body of works is ingested into a system capable of answering questions. A series of queries is analyzed against the initial body of works utilizing a set of scorers utilizing criteria to form assessments, wherein each scorer uses the criteria against the query and the initial body of works to form the assessment. The assessments are analyzed to determine a usefulness of a set of entries in the initial body of works. Content are deployed using the identified selected first set of entries as deployment ready, enabling enhanced cognitive search results.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes initiating a plurality of devices, each device corresponding to a member of a group, the group including a plurality of members; monitoring proximity information for each of the plurality of devices relative to at least one other one of the plurality of devices; establishing a maximum distance for the devices to be spaced from each other; and in response to one of the devices being separated from another of the devices by more than the maximum distance, sending an alert to at least one of remaining devices.
