Patent number: 12023146Abstract: Determining lung capacity of includes capturing an audio waveform of the user performing an utterance presented to a user. A video of the user performing the utterance can be captured. The captured audio waveform and the video are analyzed for compliance. Based on the audio waveform, an indicator of respiratory function is determined. The indicator is compared with a reference indicator to determine health of the user. A machine learning model such as neural network can be trained to predict the indicator of the respiratory function based on input features comprising audio spectral and temporal characteristics of utterances. Determining the indicator or respiratory function can include running the trained machine learning model.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2020Date of Patent: July 2, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Samuel Thomas, Nalini K.

Patent number: 10832820Abstract: A computer-implemented method, data processor and computer program product determine exposure levels to external stimuli. At least one environmental condition is monitored and an external stimulus event is identified based on the at least one environmental condition. An intensity level of the external stimulus event is determined to exceed a predetermined threshold. An exposure level of the external stimulus is determined by integrating the intensity level over time. At least one human biometric quantity of a user is measured and a personal exposure level limitation is determined for the user based on the measured at least one human biometric quantity. When the exposure level exceeds the personal exposure level limitation, the user is warned of the exposure level. The human biometric quantity is one of: heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, glucose level, blood oxygen level, muscle activity, electrolyte level, and lactic acid level.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2017Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jonathan Hudson Connell, II, Nalini K.

Publication number: 20200242142Abstract: A textual message that is nonconforming to a grammar of a language is received. The textual message is transformed into a grammatically structured interrogative form. A first sentence of a received content is scored relative to the interrogative form. The received content includes a proposal for an action in a form of a plurality of grammatically compliant structures. Based on the scoring, a response sentence having a highest score is selected. Responsive to the highest score corresponding to the response sentence being above a threshold, the response sentence is transformed into a corresponding summary phrase that is not constrained by the grammar.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2019Publication date: July 30, 2020Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jonathan Hudson Connell, II, Sharathchandra Pankanti
