  • Patent number: 11333794
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, a computer program product, and a computer system for generating a wind map based on multimedia analysis. A computer receives a multimedia source configuration and builds a wind scale reference database. In addition, the computer extracts and processes both wind speed data and contextual data from the multimedia. Moreover, the computer analyses temporal and spatial features, as well as generates a wind map based on the extracted context, extracted wind speed, and analysed temporal and spatial features. Lastly, the wind map generator validates and modifies the wind scale reference database.

  • Patent number: 11334757
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for processing suspect duplicate records in a master data management system. A master data management module identifies two or more suspect duplicate records in the master data management system based on scores. A matching engine classifies the two or more suspect duplicate records, by comparing the scores against threshold values, into one of: a match, a non-match, and a possible match. The master data management module re-classifies the suspect duplicate records and adjusting the threshold values of the matching engine for classification of future records, in response to receiving, by a data stewardship client, a user input indicating an incorrect classification of the suspect duplicate records.

  • Patent number: 10262149
    Abstract: The program controls access to data objects stored on a tangible device of a computer system within an enterprise. A user request to access a data object identifies a user role by looking up the user identification in an enterprise directory. The program determines whether the role of the user is permitted access to a system and also determines a risk score representing a risk of dissemination of the requested data object. The program compares the risk score of the requested data object to a pre-configured threshold value of the requested data object and controls access to the requested data object, based on the role of the user, and the risk score associated with the risk of disseminating the requested data object.
