  • Methods and apparatus for determining wait times
    Patent number: 11928897
    Abstract: In some examples, a system may include a first computing device communicatively coupled to a second computing device. Additionally, the first computing device is configured to obtain, from the second computing device, check-in data indicating an arrival of the user of the second computing device at a first location, and in response to obtaining the check-in data, determine current wait times. Moreover, the first computing device is configured to determine a first number of customers waiting for service, determine a first number of associates available to assist the first number of customers, and determine an expected wait time for the user operating the second computing device based at least on the current wait times. In some examples, the first number of customers waiting for service, and the first number of associates available. Further, the first computing device is configured to transmit the expected wait time to the second computing device.

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DATA ANALYSIS WITH VISUALIZATION
    Publication number: 20190377728
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for data analysis with visualization. The method includes; generating a visual result; generating a second visual result according to the second query condition and the visual parameter; generating a recommended query condition; and generating a final visual result according to the recommended query condition selected by the user. By using the analysis method or system in the present invention, a new query in which the user may be interested is generated based on an original user query, to guide the user to quickly understand knowledge hidden in the data. An analysis result is presented to the user visually, and is more visual, clearer, and easier to understand compared with a numerical calculation result. In addition, the result can be displayed by using a variety of graphics.
