Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for optimizing remuneration for computing services. Computing services are registered which stores registration data comprising remuneration associations between computing services and consumers. A hierarchical computer model is generated based on the registration data, where the model represents dependencies between consumers and providers of computing services. For a service request from a consumer, each transaction with each computing service in a service invocation chain associated with the service request is identified and a cost of each transaction is calculated. The calculated cost of the service invocation chain is optimized based on applying an optimization algorithm to a cost function applied to a selected portion of the hierarchical computer model corresponding to the service invocation chain.

Abstract: A method for a story fill authentication process includes, responsive to receiving a first authentication request to authenticate a user, displaying a first generated story with one or more obfuscated portions, where the first generated story is based on event data associated with a first previously captured event and additional data utilized to enrich the event data for the first previously captured event. The method also includes, responsive to determining text provided for the one or more obfuscated portions of the first generated story at least meets a comparison threshold level to a first complete generated story based on a semantic comparison, granting the user access to a resource associated with the first authentication request.

Abstract: A method, programming product, and/or system is disclosed for accounting for random (idiosyncratic) factors (Z) in a loss function influenced by both systemic factors (Y) and random factors (Z) and includes: computing an initial center of gravity (initial COG) of a loss function; and adjusting the initial COG of the loss function toward an Origin to a New COG to account for the random factors (Z). The New COG is determined in an approach and includes: performing a Monte Carlo sampling around an Origin to identify a Max loss at the Origin; performing a Monte Carlo sampling around the Initial COG to identify a Max loss at the Initial COG; and computing a distance to the New COG from the Initial COG using geometric ratios. In a further aspect, an importance sampling is performed about the New COG.

Abstract: A mobile robot includes a non-inverted pendulum body hereafter referred to as NPB with at least one pivot axis and this pivot axis divides the NPB into two portions. One portion of the NPB contains the center of mass of the NPB that can have structures to carry external payloads. The second portion of the NPB can have one or more manipulator arm and vision units. On the pivot axis is disposed at least one leg rotatabily coupled to the NPB. The other end of the leg has a foot joint on which is disposed a drive wheel or a foot. With additional degrees of freedom for each leg the robot can move similar to humanoids, be able to carry and sustain heavy loads with minimal leg joint torques and/or manipulate heavy loads and forces with self-compensating mass of the NPB while using minimal leg joint torques.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying suspicious behavior. Requests to provide digital identification (ID) document(s) to a computing device of a verifier by a computing device of a consumer based on a validation context are detected. Responses to such requests are also detected in which the computing device of the consumer provides digital ID document(s) to the computing device of the verifier. A score is then generated corresponding to a likelihood of fraud in the transaction involving the consumer and the verifier using an artificial intelligence model based on the validation context, the digital ID document(s) requested to be provided by the computing device of the consumer and the digital ID document(s) provided to the computing device of the verifier. The computing device of the verifier may then be informed that there is evidence of fraud based on a value of the score.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for verifying a user meets identification (ID) requirements for an associated activity or event. A request for a set of digital ID documents to be provided to the computing device of the verifier by the computing device of the device holder is detected. A response to the request is then detected which provides only a subset of the requested digital ID documents. Alternative digital ID document(s) are then identified to replace the digital ID document(s) that were requested but not provided by the device holder. An instruction is then issued to the computing device of the verifier to request one or more of the identified alternative digital ID documents from the computing device of the device holder in order to complete the verification process in determining if the device holder meets the ID requirements for an associated activity or event.

Abstract: In an approach to transient identification generation, one or more computer processors receive a request for one or more identification artifacts associated with a user from a requesting entity. One or more computer processors determine a first set of identification artifacts. One or more computer processors transmit the first set of identification artifacts to the requesting entity. One or more computer processors determine whether the first set of identification artifacts is an approved response to the request for the one or more identification artifacts. In response to determining the first set of identification artifacts is the approved response to the request for the one or more identification artifacts, one or more computer processors generate a transient identification that includes the first set of identification artifacts. One or more computer processors transmit the transient identification to the requesting entity.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of performing an electronic search. The computer-implemented method includes receiving, using a processor, a composite electronic image including a plurality of electronically identifiable objects, wherein the composite electronic image is associated with a user. The processor is used to segment the composite electronic image into sub-images by providing at least one of the sub-images for each of the plurality of electronically identifiable objects. For each of the sub-images, the processor is used to perform personalized sub-image search operations. The personalized sub-image search operations include selecting a sub-image-to-be-searched from among the sub-images; associating the sub-image-to-be-searched with personalized metadata of the user; and searching, based at least in part on the personalized metadata of the user, a database to return a set of search images.
