Patent number: 10043366Abstract: A baseline historical record for a person is formed by monitoring information about the person derived from at least one information source over a baseline period of time. A baseline pattern of behavior of the person is established by applying analytic analysis to the baseline historical record. A current pattern of behavior of the person is determined by monitoring current information about the person derived from the at least one information source. A behavior change assessment is determined by comparing the current pattern of behavior to the baseline pattern of behavior. Whether the behavior change assessment for the person meets at least one safety concern criterion is determined by comparing the behavior change assessment to safety concern criteria comprising the at least one safety concern criterion. Responsive to determining the behavior change assessment for the person meets the at least one safety concern criterion, an action is automatically performed.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2016Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Richard Gorzela, Asima Silva, Jaime M.
