Abstract: In an approach for conversational interchange optimization, a processor monitors conversations in a communication system. A processor generates a list of topics in the conversations. A processor determines a flow for each topic based on length of time, number of participants, and sentiment associated to each topic. The flow is the progress of interactions and shifts for each topic. A processor builds a statistical model for each topic based on the flow to predict success or failure of a topic progression for an incoming conversation. A processor updates the topic progression for the incoming conversation based on the predicted success or failure.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention include receiving a data erasure request associated with a user and identifying, based at least in part on the data erasure request, an entity associated with the user and one or more identifiers for the user. Aspects also include identifying, based at least in part on the one or more identifiers for the user, a cohort that includes the user and comparing the one or more identifiers for the user to identifiers of a plurality of users that are not members of the cohort. Aspects further include identifying a replacement user from the plurality of users based on the comparison and replacing the entity associated with the user in the cohort with an entity associated with the replacement user.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for managing a calendar application. A need to optimize a calendar is identified. Furthermore, a period of time to optimize the calendar is received or identified. All the scheduled events (e.g., scheduled meetings) in the calendar are then selected during that period of time. The attendees, topics and flags, if any, for each of the selected scheduled events during the period of time are extracted. Prior collaborations with the user involving the extracted attendees and/or topics of the selected scheduled events are identified. Collaboration data (e.g., participants/senders/attendees, topics) is then extracted from the identified prior collaborations. A list of actions (e.g., delegate scheduled event to another user) is generated to be performed on a selected scheduled event based on the extracted collaboration data. The generated list of actions to be performed on the selected scheduled event is then presented to the user.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for improving the discoverability of messages on a social network. The creation of a proposed message that requests a response from a target audience is detected. The social network is then searched to identify search terms and posts related to the proposed message. Upon identifying the search terms, the search terms are ranked in order of usage among the identified posts. A list of identified search terms in order of rank is then presented to the user to modify the proposed message. The proposed message is modified using a search term selected by the user from the list of search terms. The modified message is then posted on the social network. In this manner, the message created by the user has been modified to improve the discoverability of the message on the social network and to increase responses from an appropriate target audience.

Abstract: Managing data in a distributed computing environment, such as a cloud computing platform for healthcare. The platform selects a set of hierarchical resources deployed in the distributed computing environment, wherein the set of hierarchical resources comprises a resource member. The platform converts the set of selected hierarchical resources to a localized schema. The platform determines a score for the resource member based on the proximity of the resource member to the healthcare privacy dictionary, wherein the proximity is determined using the localized schema. The platform updates the set of hierarchical resources based on the determined score. The platform controls access to a resource member based on the score determined based on a proximity of a localized schema representation of the resource member to a healthcare privacy dictionary.

Abstract: Online outreach based reward model generation is described. A set of features that are indicative of an online outreach for a user are determined, the online outreach originating from a particular online network. Based on this set of features, an online outreach for the user originating from the particular online network is determined. A reward model is derived from the online outreach for the user. The reward model indicates locations within the particular online network that are to be searched for user information.

Abstract: Conversation slipstream propagation can include using machine learning to construct a conversations graph representing conversations conducted over an electronic communications network by a plurality of participants and collected from one or more messaging platforms. A conversation slipstream comprising one or more communications extracted from the conversations can be generated in response to receiving a secondary communication over the electronic communications network. Each of the one or more communications extracted is represented by a sub-graph of the conversations graph, each sub-graph corresponding to a graph of the secondary communication. The conversation slipstream can be presented to at least one participant to the secondary communication.

Abstract: Systems and techniques that facilitate quantum circuit valuation are provided. In various embodiments, a system can comprise an input component that can access a first quantum circuit. In various embodiments, the system can further comprise a valuation component that can appraise the first quantum circuit based on one or more factors (e.g., frequency factor, complexity factor, resource factor, similarity factor), thereby yielding a value score that characterizes the first quantum circuit. In various instances, the system can further comprise an execution component that can recommend deployment of the first quantum circuit based on determining that the value score exceeds a threshold.

Abstract: Interleaved conversation concept flow enhancement can include detecting a topic of an on-going conversation over an electronic communication system. In response to detecting a topic newly introduced into the on-going conversation, a topic-divergence metric (TDM) with respect to the original topic and the newly introduced topic can be determined. A topic-divergence response action can be initiated in response to the newly introduced topic diverging from the original topic by more than a predetermined threshold based on the TDM.

Abstract: A system determines a shape of incoming data, and determines, based on the shape, whether the data should be passed on to support answering a query. If the shape of the data suggests that the data is insufficient or may even be misleading, the system can gate the data or prompt for more.

Abstract: A plurality of instances of a patient's health condition are received as patient health information from a plurality of sources. Ground-truth health conditions of the patient are generated based on the patient health information and expert review of the patient's level of engagement for each instance of provider assessment. A regression model predicting a probability of patient engagement level with a provider is generated, based on the instances of patient condition assessment and the engagement level expert review associated with each instance. A current set of patient information and natural language processing results of a dialog between the patient and a provider performing a condition assessment of the patient, are received. The current patient information and the dialog are applied to the regression model, determining a probability of patient engagement level. An indicator of the patient engagement level is sent to the provider's computing device.

Abstract: A geographic location to which a user intends to travel, medical information pertaining to the user and conditions at the geographic location that impact health of human beings can be identified. A health impact model can be created for the user, the health impact model analyzing the determined conditions at the geographic location in a context of the accessed medical information pertaining to the user. Based on the analyzing by the health impact model, a score can be assigned to an anticipated health impact on the user of the identified conditions at the geographic location. If the score assigned to the anticipated health impact on the user of the identified conditions at the geographic location exceeds a threshold value, at least one action for the user can be automatically initiated and controlled.
