Patent number: 11715001Abstract: This disclosure provides a computer-implemented method. The method may comprise estimating a value range of a water body parameter based on measured data for a water quality indicator of a first set of time-spatial points and measured data for the water quality indicator of a second set of time-spatial points; and determining an optimal value of the water body parameter from the estimated value range by comparing the measured data for the water quality indicator of the second set and simulated data for the water quality indicator of the second set, wherein the simulated data for the water quality indicator of the second set is obtained based on a fluid dynamic model using the measured data for the water quality indicator of the first set as an input of the fluid dynamic model and using a value in the estimated value range as a parameter of the fluid dynamic model.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2018Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Jin Dong, Liang Liu, Zhuo Liu, Junmei Qu, Hong Zhou Sha, Wei Zhuang

Patent number: 11244091Abstract: An input data set for a model for estimating a missing value of a sensor in a sensor network is determined. The input data set includes one or more sensor readings selected according to a temporal-spatial parameter which is dynamic and specific to the sensor. Then the missing value of the sensor is estimated using the determined input data set as an input to the model.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2017Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Liang Liu, Junmei Qu, Hong Zhou Sha, Wei Zhuang

Patent number: 10649670Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relates to data block processing in a distributed processing system. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method is proposed. A first performance indicator for processing a data block by a first processing module is obtained, where the data block is loaded into the first processing module. Then, a second performance indicator for processing the data block by a second processing module is obtained, where the first and second processing modules being logical instances launched in a distributed processing system for processing data blocks. Next, one processing module is selected from the first and second processing modules for processing the data block based on a relationship between the first and second performance indicators.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2016Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Liang Liu, Junmei Qu, Hong Zhou Sha, Wei Zhuang
