Abstract: A method of dynamically adapting an environment may include collecting sensor data from a biological sensor and an environmental sensor. The method may also include, based on the sensor data, determining whether an optimal environmental state exists in an environment. The optimal environmental state may be defined in a health and wellness policy and may be configured to promote an optimal biological state of an individual in the environment. In response to the optimal environmental state not existing in the environment, the method may include identifying an environmental condition that differs from the optimal environmental state and generating a command configured to alter an operational state of an environmental device that affects the environmental condition.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a method includes accessing data streams from a first group of physiological sensors monitoring a person, a second group of deconfounding sensors monitoring the person, and a third group of sensors monitoring a stressor, analyzing data sets collected from the person when the person is exposed and not exposed to the stressor, and determining a current stress factor for the stressor with respect to the person based on the analysis.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a method may include calculating an influence score relating to an action performed by a user of a social network, the influence score for the user being based on performance of the action by a contact of the user and occurring after performance of the action by the user and calculating an action score based on the influence score for the user.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a method includes accessing an original data stream from a sensor, associating a timestamp with each of the samples in the data stream based on a system clock, and recording the original data stream with the associated timestamps.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a method includes accessing data streams from a mood sensor and one or more of a heart-rate monitor, a blood-pressure monitor, a pulse oximeter, or an accelerometer monitoring a person, analyzing data sets collected from the person when the person is stressed and unstressed, analyzing the data sets, and determining a current stress index of the person based on the analysis.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a method includes accessing data streams from at least two of an accelerometer, a heart-rate monitor, a blood-pressure monitor, a pulse oximeter, or a mood sensor monitoring a person, analyzing data sets collected from the person when the person is engage and not engaged in a therapy, and determining a current stress factor for the therapy on the person based on the analysis.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a method includes receiving and recording inputs identifying a mood of a person, a mood intensity level of the mood, an activity of the person coinciding with the mood, and time of the mood.

Abstract: Implementing an expanded search and providing expanded search results comprises receiving a search query generated by a user. A type of expansion to apply to the search query is determined. Expanded search queries are automatically generated according to the determined expansion type without intervention from the user. A search is executed on each one of the expanded search queries to retrieve search results, and the search results are provided for presentation to the user in modules. A module comprises search results for one of the expanded search queries.

Abstract: Intelligently sorting search results includes retrieving search results according to a search. A criterion to apply to the search results to organize the search results into clusters that present content of the search results is determined. The criterion is applied to the search results, and the search results are presented in clusters. Each cluster represents a category of the criterion applied to the search results.

Abstract: To implement an expanded search and to provide expanded search results, a first search query generated by a user is received. A type of expansion to apply to the first search query is determined. Expanded search queries associated with the first search query are automatically generated according to the determined expansion type without intervention from the user. A search is executed on each one of the expanded search queries to retrieve search results. A second search query is received, and the second search query is one of the expanded search queries. Expanded search queries associated with the second search query are automatically generated according to the determined expansion type without intervention from the user. A search on each one of the expanded search queries associated with the second search query to retrieve search results is executed. The search results are provided for presentation to the user in modules.
