  • Patent number: 11989628
    Abstract: Machine teaching in an embodiment can include receiving a user annotated concept for a given image in given context. The given image can be broken into parts and classified. Relationships can be determined associated with the parts. The created relationships can be stored along with the user annotated concept in a knowledge base. One or more similar images can be annotated using the parts and relationships. A second image associated the given context can be retrieved, decomposed into parts. The parts can be classified. Relationships can be determined associated with the second image's parts.

  • Publication number: 20220405065
    Abstract: A method and system of generating a documentation includes monitoring user actions regarding a model development, wherein the user actions are captured in a source code development environment. Semantic meaning is provided for each user action captured in the source code development environment. A degree of impact of each user action is determined in connection with the model. Actions having a degree of impact in the development of the model that is above a predetermined threshold are identified as impactful actions. An interactive knowledge graph is identified based on the user actions, semantic meaning of each action, and the determined degree of impact of each user action. The interactive knowledge graph is provided to be displayed in a navigable way.

  • Patent number: 10958531
    Abstract: Sensor data is detected from at least one sensor selected and installed for detecting operating conditions of at least one equipment. The sensor data includes an operating condition of at least one equipment. The sensor is selected dependent on indications of a user restriction and a predictive model. A sensor data signal is generated dependent on the sensor data. The sensor data signal is transmitted to a network device for collecting the sensor data and transforming the collected sensor data into a formatted transmission signal having a format for transmission over a network to a network server. The network server receives the formatted transmission signal for performing on-demand service of at least one of analysis, reporting and visualization dependent on the operating condition.

  • Patent number: 10860120
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for mapping input devices in real time. The method may include controlling a camera to capture a plurality of images, performing object recognition on the images to identify a plurality of objects, determining properties for each identified object that enable the corresponding object to provide spatial data and interaction data of a preferred input device, ranking the objects according to the determined properties, presenting the identified objects in an order corresponding to the rank that enables a user to select one of the presented objects, tracking the selected object and a human being, generating spatial data and interaction data from a result of the tracking, and providing the generated spatial data and interaction data to a computer to emulate the events of the preferred input device.

  • Patent number: 10770072
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a computer-implemented method that includes receiving, at a triggering system, input data about an environment. Machine learning (ML) algorithms extract features from the input data and analyze relationships among and between the features to generate user-interaction-readiness model of person-A's readiness to participate in a human interaction with other persons in the environment. The ML algorithms to apply real-world data about person-A to the user-interaction-readiness model to generate a first classification output comprising data representing person-A's readiness to participate in a human interaction with other persons in the environment. Based at least in part on a determination that person-A and another person(s) in the environment are interaction candidates, the triggering system triggers the initiation of human interaction strategies configured to facilitate human interactions between person-A and the previously identified another person(s) in the environment.
