  • Publication number: 20230175851
    Abstract: Data-analysis-based processing is provided to detect that a potential traffic event identified by a navigation system for a travel route is FALSE. The processing obtains movement data from multiple devices associated with one or more vehicles passing along the travel route in the vicinity of the potential traffic event, where the multiple devices are multiple electronic devices with Global Positioning System (GPS) capability, and obtains, based on the movement data, relative movement data between devices of the multiple devices associated with the one or more vehicles. Based at least in part on the relative movement data between devices of the multiple devices, the processing ascertains that the detected potential traffic event is FALSE, and initiates an action based on determining that the detected potential travel event is a FALSE traffic event.

  • Patent number: 10878202
    Abstract: Ingesting user information from one or more forms of electronic communication. Parsing the ingested user information. Based on the parsed user information, one or more trigger words are determined. Receiving monitored audio of a surrounding environment. Transcribing the monitored audio into a textual format. Parsing the transcribed text. Identifying one or more trigger words. Determining a context of the one or more trigger words. Determining the context satisfies a user criteria. Translating the monitored audio in real-time.

  • Patent number: 10829135
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, a system, and a computer program product for managing safety for a railway system. A computer system generates a probability of a safety issue for a particular section of a railroad track in the railway system using information from a set of weather event sources. A set of unmanned aerial vehicles is dispatched to the particular section of the railroad track when the probability of the safety issue exceeds a threshold. A number of images of the particular section of the railroad track is received from the set of unmanned aerial vehicles. A risk score for the safety issue at the particular section of the railroad track is generated using the number of images by the computer system. An action is performed to resolve the safety issue using the risk score, enabling the computer system to manage safety issues for the railway system.

  • Patent number: 10629037
    Abstract: A processor may identify that a first device is in a first state. The first device may be paired with a second device that is configured to analyze one or more physical characteristics of an object. The processor may identify, using the second device, a physical characteristic of the object while the first device is in the first state. The processor may determine that the first device has transitioned to a second state. The processor may identify the physical characteristic of the object while the first device is in the second state. The processor may compare the physical characteristic of the object when the first device was in the first state to the physical characteristic of the object when the when the first device is in the second state. The processor may alert a user of the comparing.

  • Publication number: 20190215772
    Abstract: A cognitive assistant for mobile devices in low power mode. A first signal may be received from a mobile device via a communication network, the first signal indicating that the mobile device entered low power mode. Responsive to receiving the first signal, communications from a plurality of servers directed to the mobile device may be registered to be rerouted to another device. Communications' content may be analyzed and the communications assigned weights. A selected set of communications that are assigned weights exceeding a threshold value is transmitted to the mobile device in low power mode.

A first signal may be received from a mobile device via a communication network, the first signal indicating that the mobile device entered low power mode. Responsive to receiving the first signal, communications from a plurality of servers directed to the mobile device may be rerouted to another hardware processor, wherein the hardware processor receives the communications instead of the mobile device receiving the communications. The hardware processor may analyze the communications' content and assign weights to the communications. A selected set of communications that are assigned weights exceeding a threshold value is transmitted to the mobile device in low power mode.
