Patent number: 11204591Abstract: The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product of modeling and calculating aggregate power of a set of renewable energy source stations using power output from representative renewable energy source stations. In an embodiment, the present invention includes receiving location, power output time series, and weather time series data of renewable energy source stations in a geographic region and aggregate power output time series data for the geographic region, for each cluster of stations, normalizing the aggregate power value to a representative renewable energy source station, learning a regression model, and de-normalizing a normalized aggregate output power model with respect to a maximum possible power value, and applying a combined model to the received data and power output of representative renewable energy source stations for a particular day, resulting in a total aggregate power value of the renewable energy source stations for the particular day.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2017Date of Patent: December 21, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Umamaheswari Devi, Amith Singhee, Mathieu Sinn, Vincent Lonij, Amar P.

Patent number: 11010689Abstract: Techniques that facilitate semantic and time series analysis using machine learning are provided. In one example, a system includes a data analysis component, a prediction component and a learning component. The data analysis component that establishes one or more relationships between one or more elements of semantic data, including one or more time series identifiers, and one or more elements of time series data in a relationship database. The prediction component generates one or more advisory outputs, wherein generation of the one or more advisory outputs is performed in response to a trigger event. A learning component that determines the one or more relationships in the relationship database, wherein determination of the one or more relationships is based on information indicative of whether the advisory outputs satisfy a defined criterion.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2017Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Bradley Eck, Vincent Lonij, Pascal Pompey

Patent number: 10594817Abstract: A social network platform and method thereof for providing Internet of Things (I-o-T) devices with social behavior for communicating natural language (NL) text messages. An I-o-T device is provided with a social device application to form a unit capable of: reading free form NL messages, and responsively perform an action. The social device application generates NL text in response to reading a text message and/or in response to receiving readings from a set of sensors. Types of messages generated include messages for initiating social relationships with other devices which may communicate an acceptance/declination. The platform may be centralized with a server for ranking the importance of read messages based on the relationships and addressing NL text messages to other social units or groups of social units based on the relationships. The platform further enables direct messaging between social unit devices, brokering trust, and moderating information flow between devices.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2017Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Vincent Lonij, Bradley Eck, Amadou Ba
