Patent number: 11244362Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of networked sensing devices monitor one or more activities of a first user, wherein the one or more activities of the first user are associated with a subject area. Information associated with the one or more activities of the first user from the plurality of networked sensing devices is analyzed to determine a level of expertise of the first user with respect to the subject area. A review by the first user is generated for an item offered on a network site, wherein the item pertains to the subject area. The item is displayed on the network site with the review and determined level of expertise of the first user in response to a search for the item for a second user.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2018Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Sonia L. Sequeira, Sachin K. Mahajan, Hemant Kumar Sivaswamy

Patent number: 10956449Abstract: One or more processors divide an OLAP cube into one or more cubelets. One or more processors determine a weight corresponding to each node present within each of the one or more cubelets. One or more processors determine a total cost corresponding to each of the one or more cubelets. One or more processors assign execution of a portion of a workload corresponding to each of the one or more cubelets to a data processing element. The assignment of the execution of the portion of the workload corresponding to a cubelet to a data processing element is based on the determined total cost corresponding to the cubelet.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2015Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Chandrashekhar K. Jain, Sonia L. Sequeira

Patent number: 10659559Abstract: Provided are systems, methods, and media for identifying and purging unwanted contacts. An example method includes monitoring electronic group communication that is conducted between two or more people and building a persona profile for a person of the electronic group communication during a first period of time based, at least in part, on extracting during the first period of time, from the monitored electronic group communication, behavior data associated with a first contact number. The method includes detecting, during a second period of time, whether the person associated with the first contact number has changed. The method includes transmitting an alert to at least one person of the two or more people indicating that the person associated with the first contact number has changed.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2017Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Sonal Bhatt, Sonia L.

Patent number: 10262287Abstract: A method for comparing and analyzing data based on data analysis reports is provided. The method may include receiving a first dataset. The method may also include identifying a first portion of the first dataset and a second portion of the first dataset. Additionally, the method may include comparing and analyzing the first portion of the first dataset with the second portion of the first dataset. The method may also include receiving a second dataset from a location different from the first dataset. The method may further include comparing and analyzing the first portion and second portion of the first dataset with the second dataset. The method may also include receiving a plurality of first analysis results and a plurality of second analysis results based on the comparisons and the analyzes. The method may also include presenting the plurality of first analysis results and the plurality of second analysis results.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2016Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Priyam Aneja, Laxmi V. Bhatt, Sonal Bhatt, Meghali V. Munoli, Sonia L. Sequeira, Hemant K. Sivaswamy

Publication number: 20180107750Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for analytics on a set of data. Reports are visualizations of a data model. Because the data model is limited, pre-defined, and structured in typical hierarchies, an end-user can only obtain answers to queries based on data inputted into the data model. When the obtained answers insufficiently respond to the queries, the present invention refines the data model by modifying elements and dimensions of the data model. Thus, the refined data model is able to respond sufficiently to the queries.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2017Publication date: April 19, 2018Inventors: Sonal Bhatt, Sonia L. Sequeira, Hemant K. Sivaswamy

Patent number: 9560152Abstract: A method for generating an output of users that are communicating online in which one or more processors gathers data of topics of interest for each group member. One or more processors receive content of an online communication session and sends the content to a cognitive engine to determine the topic and summary information of the session. The cognitive engine sends the topic to a graphic engine to obtain a pictorial representation of the topic. One or more processors receive the summary information and pictorial representation and generates personalizes summaries for the group members based on the interests determined for each group member from prior online sessions.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2016Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Rohan M.
