Abstract: Aspects of the invention include a method including collecting, by a processor, physiological data from a user in an environment and a sound waveform from the user's environment. The method detects and labels as a potential annoyance, by the processor, a set of potential annoyance data based on the collected physiological data and the sound waveform. The method decomposes, by the processor, the sound waveform into a first sound waveform segment associated with the set of potential annoyance data and a second sound waveform segment not associated with the set of potential annoyance data. The method predicts, by the processor, that the potential annoyance is an actual annoyance. The method filters and modifies, by the processor, the first sound waveform segment associated with the actual annoyance and provides, by the processor, the second sound waveform segment not associated with the actual annoyance to the user.

Abstract: A method and system of diagnosing a medical condition of a target area of a patient using a mobile device are provided. One or more magnetic field images of a target area of a patient are received. One or more hyperspectral images of the target area of the patient are received. For each of the one or more magnetic field images and the one or more hyperspectral images, a three-dimensional (3D) position of the mobile device is tracked with respect to the target are of the patient. A 3D image of the target area is generated based on the received one or more magnetic field images, one or more hyperspectral images, and the corresponding tracked 3D position of the phone with respect to each image. A medical condition of the target area is diagnosed or monitored based on the generated 3D image.

Abstract: Thermal imaging protection is provided by, in response to detecting input of an access code on an input device: identifying a sequence comprising the access code; generating a bait code based on the sequence; and outputting a heat signature corresponding to the bait code using heating elements, such as resistor arrays, included in the input device. In some embodiments protection includes measuring temperatures of contact surfaces of the input device where the access code has been input; and adjusting a heat level of the heating elements based on the temperatures measured. Protection is further provided by storing the bait code; and in response to receiving entry of the bait code, activating unauthorized access countermeasures. In some embodiments protection includes, in response to detecting subsequent input of the access code: generating a second, different, bait code based on the sequence; and activating the heating elements based on the second bait code.

Abstract: A result format modifying method, system, and non-transitory computer readable medium, include extracting, from a database including a plurality of display format types of a search result of a search conducted by a user, the plurality of display format types of the search result conducted by the user, and deciding a display format of the plurality of display format types to output to the user based on a time interval between a current time and the start time of the user's next activity as determined by the determining, where the display format of the search result to the user corresponds to a delivery that is digestible by the user within a specific length of a time interval out of a first time interval and a second time interval, the first time interval being longer than the second time interval.

A system is provided that a node tracking system that collects tracking information of nodes in a moving P2P network including position, connection status and computation capability; a network representation system that stores the tracking information in a dynamic graph that specifies nodes and connections between the nodes; a task manager for receiving a task submitted by a requesting node for a service implemented by a provider node; and a network allocation system that determines and allocates an optimal path back and forth between the requesting node and the provider node, wherein the optimal path is selected to minimize an overall wall-time, and wherein the network allocation system estimates future positions of moving nodes for determining the optimal path.

Abstract: A cognitive IoT gateway may receive real-time data associated with a user from sensor devices that are detecting user data in real-time. The real-time data is analyzed to determine whether the real-time data indicates a deviation from a predicted user behavior data predicted based on historical data. The real-time data is transformed into collated data that removes protected and sensitive information from the real-time data, and the collated data is transmitted to a server computer, wherein the protected and sensitive information received from the sensor devices remain local to the cognitive IoT gateway. Updated information computed by the server computer based on the collated data is received and a real-time alert is sent to a user device notifying the user of the updated information.
