  • Patent number: 11293766
    Abstract: A system and method for cognitive journey monitoring are presented. Embodiments comprise journey prediction, parsing of data sources, risk assessment and mitigation, and natural-language user interaction by a cognitive processor. Data is gathered from a plurality of data sources and analyzed in the context of one or more of the user's intention(s). A dialogue with the user, in natural language, aims to provide and select one or more suggestions relating to the one or more user intention(s) such that the risk(s) relating to the one or more user's intention(s) is reduced. During the dialogue, cognitive reasoning may be performed, wherein the cognitive reasoning includes the ability to justify each suggestion and the ability to infer information from the interaction such as, for example, data obtained in a dialogue may inform subsequent inferences. The embodiments may use speech synthesis and speech recognition in an interactive spoken dialogue.

  • Patent number: 11276176
    Abstract: Embodiments for implementing intelligent boundary delineation of a region of interest of an organism in two spatial dimensions in a computing environment by a processor. Time series data of a contrast agent in one or more regions of interest captured from multispectral image streams may be collected. One or more regions of interest having one or more perfusion patterns may be identified from the time series data. Boundaries of the one or more regions of interest may be delineated into at least two spatial dimensions, wherein the boundaries of the one or more regions of interest include one or more selected labels.

  • Patent number: 11145052
    Abstract: Embodiments for implementing intelligent classification of region of interest in an organism in a computing environment by a processor. Time series data of a contrast agent in one or more regions of interest captured from multispectral image streams may be collected. The one or more regions of interest may be classified into one of a plurality of classes by applying one or more perfusion models, representing spatio-temporal behavior of the contrast agent reflected by the time series data, and by using a machine learning operation.

  • Patent number: 10768002
    Abstract: A system and method for learning and predicting personalized risk associated with a journey for a user are presented. Contextual data may be gathered and analyzed from a plurality of data sources relating to a journey of a user. A risk associated with the journey may be learned for the user according to the contextual data. One or more risk models may be generated according to the learned risks. One or more potential risks associated with a subsequent journey may be predicted using the one or more risk models.
