Abstract: Aspects differentially drive the graphic display of links overlaid between people in a group photograph as a function of associated relationship type. Individuals are distinguished within the photograph and relationships are identified among the individuals that differ from one another with respect to type of relationship, by extracting relationship data via natural language processing relative to social network data of one or more of the identified individuals. Thus, a graphic display device is driven to display the identified relationships via each of different overlay elements that are depicted directly on the photograph, link respective ones of the identified individuals, and use different graphic elements to convey differences in respective types of the relationships that are determined among the identified individuals.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for repairing a broken object. A processor retrieves information describing the size and shape of a broken object. A processor retrieves information describing the size and shape of an intact object, wherein the intact object includes a part missing from the broken object. A processor generates a first three-dimensional model of the broken object based, at least in part, on the information describing the size and shape of the broken object. A processor generates a second three-dimensional model of the intact object based, at least in part, on the information describing the size and shape of the intact object. A processor generates a third three-dimensional model based, at least in part, on a difference between the first and second three-dimensional model. A processor sends one or more instructions to a three-dimensional printer to create an object based, at least in part, on the third three-dimensional model.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method manages displayed content on a reshaped flexible display. One or more processors detect a location of a bend in a flexible display, where the bend reshapes the flexible display to define at least two sections of the flexible display. One or more processors identify a type of application being used to generate content that is displayed on the flexible display, and then divide the content into a first content portion and a second content portion, based on the type of application being used. One or more processors then display the first content portion on a first section of the flexible display and the second content portion on a second section of the flexible display.

Abstract: Aspects automatically direct data requests from a specific application of a mobile programmable device to a designated WiFi network pathway without interaction from a mobile device user in response to determining that an initial data network pathway does not meet a satisfactory service threshold for forwarding the data requests to an event web server. Aspects also predict total attendance within a venue of the event and within a communication range of a designated WiFi service node by device users as function of real-time levels of social media following activity associated with the event and an available venue occupancy, a historical attendance at similar events within similar venues, and a time of the event. Aspects predicting a bandwidth requirement for usage of a WiFi pathway of the WiFi node for requests as a function of the predicted attendance.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The methods include, for instance: collecting user data from the user, analyzing a context of an event including one or more actions from the user data; identifying subsequent actions of the event based on the context of the event, creating one or more context-personality-cognitive state (CPC) mapping and building up a knowledgebase by machine learning, predicting a cognitive state of the user while performing a of the event based on the knowledgebase. The method generates the alarm for the subsequent action based on the predicted first cognitive state of the user and notifying the generated alarm to the user.

Abstract: A set of data is presented on a user interface, which is on a touch screen that is capable of detecting touch inputs. The set of data is initially in a first state. One or more processors detect a touch input from the touch screen. The touch input is a unique touch pattern that has been predefined as a user request to transform the set of data into a second state. The set of data is then displayed in the second state on the user interface.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide approaches for communicating availability of a mobile device. Specifically, at least one approach includes: determining a current status of a mobile device operated by a receiving user, the current status including an operating state and an operating time zone; and providing the current status of the mobile device to a sender via the sender's mobile device by performing either of the following: annotating a contact list with visual data indicating the operating state and the operating time zone of the mobile device, and generating a graphic indicating the operating state and the operating time zone of the mobile device when the sender initiates communication with the mobile device. Based on the current status, a warning can be communicated to the sender indicating that is inadvisable to continue with the communication, as the receiving user is unlikely to be available and/or willing to respond.

Abstract: A method for selectively blocking content on a transparent electronic display is provided. Unstructured information is analyzed using natural language processing techniques. A portion of the unstructured information is classified as protected content. An emissive layer displays the protected content over a substantially opaque portion of the selectively transparent layer. A user is provided with a prompt that identifies the protected content. The substantially opaque portion of the selectively transparent layer become substantially transparent in response to receiving an interaction with the prompt from the user.
