  • Patent number: 11811921
    Abstract: An approach is provided in which the approach receives a request to upload a file at a server system that includes metadata encoded with a non-invertible key. The metadata includes contact information corresponding to an owner of the file. The approach establishes both a photon channel and a classical channel between the server system and a client system, which are both secured using one or more shared secret keys. The approach interfaces with the client system over the photon channel and the classical channel to decode the contact information at the server system, and sends an upload request from the server system to the owner of the file using the contact information. The approach authorizes the upload request at the server system in response to receiving an upload approval from the owner.

  • Patent number: 11810029
    Abstract: In an approach for predictive forecasting of food allocation, a first data is received from one or more sensors. The amount and condition of available food is determined from the first data. The number and location of people is determined from the first data. The received data is modified to create a second data. One or more food requirements for the people are predicted based on the number and location of people and the second data. An optimal food allocation for the people is predicted based on the amount and condition of food available and the one or more food requirements. The optimal food allocation is reported.

  • Patent number: 11768678
    Abstract: By analyzing execution of a set of transactions by an application, a set of actual code execution paths of the application are determined. From the set of actual code execution paths, a set of predicted execution paths of the application are predicted using an execution prediction model. The set of predicted execution paths includes the set of actual code execution paths. By determining that paths in the set of predicted execution paths have above a threshold similarity to each other, a cluster of predicted execution paths is identified. The cluster of predicted execution paths is recommended, using a recommendation model, for implementation as a single execution path in a revised version of the application.

  • Publication number: 20230281924
    Abstract: In an approach for improving operational efficiencies in IoT agricultural ecosystems, a processor receives a request from a user for a production plan to modify one or more values of a set of values of an area of interest. A processor maps the area of interest using a set of data originating from a LIDAR instrument to create a digital elevation model of the area of interest. A processor creates a knowledge set to train a decision engine. A processor calculates one or more modifications to be made to the one or more values of the set of values of the area of interest. A processor generates a map of applicable land options that the user may interact with to select the one or more modifications to be made to the one or more values of the set of values. A processor plots a finalized rendering of the production plan.

  • Patent number: 11719547
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining whether an electric vehicle (EV) requires a current charge. The method analyzes a set of EV data, wherein the set of EV data comprises a battery level, a destination, a current position, and a predicted arrival time to the destination. The method further constructs a charging regulation model for the EV, based on the analyzed set of EV data. The method further computes a risk score pertaining to charging the EV, based on the constructed charging regulation model for the EV, and determines whether the EV requires a current charge based on the computed risk score. The method further engages one or more wireless charging points on a roadway, if the computed risk score is below a threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20230229707
    Abstract: An embodiment includes analyzing a first digital image using a first trained neural network that classifies the first image as having a first context based on a plurality of characteristics of the first image. The embodiment generates a data structure that associates first and second elements depicted in the first image based on an affinity detected between the first and second elements in the first context. The embodiment executes a querying process that searches for information requested by a user, and detects that a search result from the querying process conveys a second context that is different from the first context. The embodiment identifies a third element in the data structure having an affinity with the first element in the second context. The embodiment renders a machine-generated image that is generated using a second trained neural network and depicts the first element and the third element in the second context.
