  • Patent number: 10031965
    Abstract: In a computing device that implements a data object classification tool, a method for classifying data may include detecting change in spatial coordinates for each of at least two of a set of data objects within a canvas space. Each of the data objects may be associated with a vector of features. A rule set may be generated based on the vector of features associated with each of the at least two data objects. The rule set may use feature(s) that explain the changed spatial coordinates. The data objects may be selectively rearranged within the canvas space by applying the generated rule set to any remaining data objects among the set of data objects so as to assign spatial coordinates to the remaining objects. For each of the data objects, the spatial coordinates may be stored as new semantic feature(s) within the vector of features for that data object.

  • Publication number: 20170042461
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present application, an operator provides entries into the computer workstation indicative of an evaluation. Assessment of the entries takes place relative to data representative of a corresponding multiple resource neuroenergetic model for the cognitively demanding activity. Generation of an operator instruction results from the assessment that is provided to the operator through the computer workstation. The operator instruction directs the operator to take a break from the cognitively demanding activity based on the assessment.
