  • Patent number: 11722857
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to an interactive text message based coaching program. A computer system generates customized messages for a first user containing information related to a health-related campaign program. The computer system generates the messages via a user interface in response to user-input provided by a second user. Messages are included in interaction components that include a user-specified link that logically connects the interaction component to another interaction component in a decision tree. The decision tree defines a sequence of messages to be sent to the first user. For example, a next message of the sequence can be based on a response from the first user to a previous message of the sequence.

  • Patent number: 11710558
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for identifying radiation therapy treatment data for different patients, such as field geometry. A central server collects patient data, radiation therapy treatment planning data, clinic-specific rules, and other pertinent treatment/medical data associated with a patient. The server then executes one or more machine-learning computer models to predict field geometry variables and weights associated with the patient's treatments. Using the predicted variables and weights, the server execute a clinic-specific set of logic to identify suggested field geometry, such as couch/gantry angles and/or arc attributes. The server then monitors whether end users (e.g., medical professionals) revise the suggested field geometry and trains the model accordingly.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method reduces an amount of machine health data to be stored in a data storage device while preserving details of extrema values occurring within incremental measurement time intervals in an extended time period during which the data were collected. The method includes: sensing an operational characteristic of a machine and generating an operational characteristic signal; generating machine health parameter data that include amplitude values and associated time values; for each incremental measurement time interval, calculating an average value of the amplitude values, identifying a maximum value of the amplitude values, and identifying a minimum value of the amplitude values; and storing a compressed machine health parameter data set in the data storage device. The compressed machine health parameter data set includes the calculated average values and the identified maximum and minimum values for the incremental measurement time intervals.

  • Patent number: 11711327
    Abstract: In some examples, user models are generated to represent experience of users with respect to their roles. Models that represent conditions are also generated. As part of generating a support element for a particular user, a triggering event is detected (e.g., an update to a user record), a condition is identified, a condition model and a user model are compared to identify a condition preparedness score. This score is used to generate the support element, which is shared with a user device of the user.

  • Patent number: 11705247
    Abstract: In an approach to predictive contact tracing, a computer receives a query associated with contact tracing of a person with an infection. A computer retrieves timestamped location data associated with the person over a period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer creates a contact graph associated with the person, where the contact graph depicts one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. A computer retrieves medical data associated with the person and the one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer builds a probabilistic model. A computer runs the probabilistic model to provide a prediction of a probability of infection of the one or more other people over the period of time as a result of being in contact with the person.
