  • Implementing dynamically and automatically altering user profile for enhanced performance
    Patent number: 11954564
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, and a computer system are provided for implementing dynamic and automatic altering a user profile based on machine learning and cognitive analysis to improve user performance. The user profile is dynamically altered based upon live data from multiple external data sources using machine learning and cognitive application programming interfaces (APIs) without explicit input from the user. The altered user profile is automatically stored for the user. The stored user profile is deployed for multiple selected user applications enabling enhanced performance for the user.
