Publication number: 20250139326Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to methods and systems for predicting water quality of a river having a varying river ecosystem. Due to multiple and diverse factors, understanding and estimating the water quality of the river stream (river itself) is extremely and technically challenging. The present disclosure discloses a development of a river digital twin model utilizing a multi-modeling approach to comprehensively model the river and its varying ecosystems. The agents encompass entities that directly or indirectly introduce effluents or withdraw water from the river. Agents and their interactions are defined using a combination of behavior rules, correlations, and physics principles, creating the digital twin model that closely mimics the real river system. Physics-based equations are also employed in the present disclosure to capture the dynamics of the river, while relationships between different agents are established.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Surabhi SHRIVASTAVA, Shankar Balajirao KAUSLEY, Souvik BARAT, Vinay KULKARNI, Beena RAI

Patent number: 12277184Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to the field of retrieval and extraction for designing formulated products by constructed ingredient-functionality lists for formulated products using search engine result excerpts in an automated manner. Many ingredients used in formulated products are multi-functional. Conventionally, in a given category of formulated product, only a single functionality or subset of functionalities of an ingredient is used ignoring other functionalities of which the ingredient is representative. However, there is a need to put together representative ingredients before proceeding further with process steps of making and testing the formulated product. The present disclosure addresses unresolved problems of the conventional methods by obtaining information regarding the functionalities of ingredients used in formulated products using search engines based on a loop processing involving query formation, and construction of a list of ingredients and functionalities till exhaustion.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2023Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES LIMITEDInventors: Sagar Sunkle, Vinay Kulkarni, Deepak Shyamsunder Jain, Beena Rai

Publication number: 20250087998Abstract: Existing electricity consumption prediction approaches depend largely on data-based models, which may be statistical techniques or more precisely time-series predictions that predict based on the auto-regressive nature of the load curve with a few external variables at best, such as calendar events and ambient temperature. While these models are effective to a certain degree for the overall grid level requirements, they may not be able to predict disruptive changes that may happen over longer periods of time, such as the demographic shifts, etc. Method and system disclosed herein predict the electricity consumption by taking into consideration various parameters associated with such disruptive changes, and then predict the electricity consumption in a target area by aggregating the electricity consumption predicted at the agent level.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2024Publication date: March 13, 2025Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: SIVAKUMAR SUBRAMANIAN, PRANAV GUJAR, SRI HARSHA NISTALA, GOPAL SHINDE, ROSHNI AGRAWAL, VENKATARAMANA RUNKANA, VINAY KULKARNI

Publication number: 20250013805Abstract: Dependency on limited availability of subject matter experts (SMEs) who are well versed in Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) technology is a significant barrier to MDE utilized for generating conceptual models. In the present disclosure, MDE and generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) operate in a symbiotic relationship complimenting respective strengths and overcoming limitations. The generative AI techniques lower the knowledge barrier and enable domain SMEs to construct purposive models by operating at natural language level instead of at MDE technology level, thereby simplifying the method of generating conceptual models that are purposive. When operating at natural language level, the method and system of the present disclosure ensures that the generative AI receives focused and well directed prompts to optimize the number of interactions and reduce computing power utilized.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2024Publication date: January 9, 2025Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: JAYA DUTTA, SOUVIK BARAT, SREEDHAR SANNAREDDY REDDY, VINAY KULKARNI

Publication number: 20220318676Abstract: The disclosure generally related to a learning-based modelling of an emergent behavior of a complex system. Existing decision-making at complex systems primarily relies on qualitative approaches, which often results in inaccurate outputs. The disclosed system includes a digital twin of the complex system and a digital twin of an environment of said complex system, and captures an interaction and dynamic behavior of agents of the digital twins. The agents of the digital twins are simulated and modelled using learning-based models such as RL and genetic algorithms that learns the behavior (i.e. actions and their outcomes) over a period of time. Hence, the agents (or actors) of the digital twins are dynamic in nature. The actor-based bottom up simulation approach is capable of producing sufficient insight for effective decision making prior to implementation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2021Publication date: October 6, 2022Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: PRASENJIT DAS, SOUVIK BARAT, VINAY KULKARNI, PRASHANT KULMAR, KAUSTAV BHATTACHARYA, SANKARANARAYANAN VISWANATHAN
