  • Publication number: 20160154948
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to managing companionship data. The managing of companionship data includes establishing a set of companion data. The set of companion data relates to a user. A computer establishes the set of companion data. The computer also collects a set of stimuli. The set of stimuli is associated with the user. Based on the set of stimuli, a portion of the set of companion data is determined. The portion of the set of companion data is provided to the user.

  • Publication number: 20160124946
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure include managing a set of data associated with a corpus. By analyzing the corpus, a domain is established to characterize the subject matter of the set of data. A user identifier is generated for a portion of the set of data. Based upon a credibility computation, a quality factor for a portion of the set of data is determined. The credibility computation includes using both the domain and the user identifier to determine the quality factor for the portion of the set of data. The quality factor for the portion of the set of data is compared with a threshold. In response to a quality factor for a portion of the set of data exceeding the threshold, the portion of the set of data is selected.

  • Publication number: 20150066439
    Abstract: Obtaining physical model data for CAD model generation with a process that includes: receiving a first acceleration-based path data set including acceleration data for an accelerometer device as it was traced over a first path along the surface of a physical object, converting the first acceleration-based path data set to a first position-based data set including position data for the accelerometer as it was traced over the first path along the surface of the physical object, and generating a three dimensional object model data set based, at least in part on the position data of the first position-based data set.
