Patent number: 10708749Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for validating and supplementing emergency call information removing private information. A Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) receives an emergency (e.g., 911) call from a mobile device. Parts of the emergency call are processed to identify an emergency call location. Characteristics of the emergency call are combined with characteristics of other signals to identify an emergency call event, including an event location. The emergency call event is sent to the PSAP. Prior to receiving phase II data, and possibly even prior to receiving phase I data, the PSAP receives the event. The PSAP tailors dispatch of emergency resources responding to the emergency call based on characteristics of the event, including the event location. A privacy infrastructure spans signal ingestion, event detection, and event notification and protects the integrity of private information.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2020Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Inventors: Damien Patton, Rish Mehta, Christian Gratton, Michael B.

Patent number: 10701544Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for validating and supplementing emergency call information removing private information. A probability that an emergency call originated from a location is derived from features of a normalized signal version of the emergency call. An additional normalized signal is accessed within a specified distance of the location. The location is validated from features of the additional signal. An event is detected from the features of the normalized signal version of the emergency call based on the validated location. The validated location is associated with an obtained event truthfulness probability for the event. The event is sent to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP). A privacy infrastructure spans signal ingestion, event detection, and event notification and protects the integrity of private information.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2020Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Banjo, Inc.Inventors: Damien Patton, Rish Mehta, Christian Gratton, Michael B.

Publication number: 20200174857Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for storing and validating the integrity of event related information. An event notification is accessed. The event notification indicates that an event was detected from a first normalized signal and a second normalized signal. The integrity of the event is verified. Integrity verification includes simulating detection of a simulated event based on contents stored in a distributed ledger. Integrity verification also includes comparing the event to the simulated event and determining that the simulated event verifies the event. Based on the integrity verification, a physical resource is allocated. The physical resource may be selected from among: a first responder resource, a hospital resource, a delivery service resource, a media outlet resource, a government entity resource, a social worker resource, or a disaster relief resource.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2020Publication date: June 4, 2020Inventors: Damien Patton, Rish Mehta

Patent number: 10671651Abstract: The invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for deriving signal location information. A raw signal is ingested and normalized, including deriving a partially normalized signal. The partially normalized signal can be a signal including a Time, a Context and possibly a non-dispositive location hint. A list of one or more geo cells where the raw signal potentially originated is accessed. In one aspect, the one or more geo cells are accessed based on the non-dispositive location hint. A location annotation identifying a geo cell from among the one or more geo cells is formulated. The partially normalized signal can be annotated with the location annotation. A location in a two dimensional space is determined from the location annotation. The location is inserted into the partially normalized signal forming a fully normalized signal. The fully normalized signal can include a Time, a Location, and a Context.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2019Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Banjo, Inc.Inventors: Christian Gratton, Rish Mehta, Damien Patton, K W Justin Leung, Cameron Holt

Publication number: 20200162534Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting events from signal data. A signal is ingested. A first score is computed from a selected portion of the signal. The first score indicates a likelihood of the signal including information related to an event type. It is determined that processing of another signal is warranted based on the indicated likelihood. Resources are allocated to process the other signal. The other signal is ingested. Parameters associated with the other signal are accessed. A second score is computed from the parameters utilizing the allocated resources. A previously unidentified event of the event type is identified based on the second score and utilizing the allocated resources. An entity is electronically notified about the previously unidentified event.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2020Publication date: May 21, 2020Inventors: Rish Mehta, Damien Patton

Publication number: 20200151456Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for ingesting streaming signals. Signal ingestion modules sample a frame from a raw streaming signal. A preliminary severity or possible event type is computed from the sampled frame. A deeper inspection request is triggered of the raw streaming signal or of another raw streaming signal. Segments of content from the raw streaming signal or the other raw streaming signal are inspected. An actual severity or actual event type is computed from the inspected content. The actual severity or actual event type can be included in a normalized signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2020Publication date: May 14, 2020Inventors: KW Justin Leung, Michael Avner Urbach, Armando Guereca-Pinuelas, Christopher E.

Patent number: 10599491Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for storing and validating the integrity of event related information. To facilitate auditing and traceability, raw signals, normalized signals, detected events, event expirations, and event notifications can be stored in a queryable distributed ledger (e.g., a blockchain). Personal information can be stripped (or otherwise rendered inert, for example, unrecognizable, unreproducible, etc.) prior to storage into the distributed ledger minimizing the possibility of a person being identified. Ledger data can be used to verify actual data as well as for forensics purposes, such as, to audit data, recreate events, etc., in view of an error or inconsistency to investigate, diagnose, remediate, etc.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2019Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: Banjo, Inc.Inventors: Damien Patton, Rish Mehta

Publication number: 20190391987Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for consolidating information from different signals into an event. Aspects of the invention used a multiphase approach to consolidating information from different signals into (e.g., deduplicating) an event. Detected events are held in the event holding cache for some amount of time after detection in accordance event holding criteria. As events are detected, an information consolidator compares currently detected events to previously cached events. Events determined to be the same event are grouped into an event group. When holding criteria expire for an event in the event group, the event group is published to one or more entities. As such, each new detection of the event does not trigger a corresponding new notification. Different portions of content from the same signal can also be monitored to reduce duplicate detections based on different content types in the same signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2019Publication date: December 26, 2019Inventors: Christian Gratton, Damien Patton, Rish Mehta, KW Justin Leung
