Abstract: Systems and methods for providing tactile feedback. A method for providing tactile feedback, comprises extracting a plurality of features from a visual representation of a physical object, wherein the extracting is performed using at least one image processing technique, generating a variable frequency pattern corresponding to the extracted features, sending the variable frequency pattern to a computing device, and generating the tactile feedback via the computing device in response to a stimulation applied by a user, wherein the tactile feedback is based on the variable frequency pattern.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product to optimize sleep quality by inducing sleep stages. The method includes: determining a total sleep time; calculating, using the total sleep time, a cycle duration for a sleep cycle, where the sleep cycle includes a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stage; calculating a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth stage time for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stages respectively; generating a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth external parameter for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth sleep stages respectively, where the external parameters are parameters to facilitate a transition between sleep stages; and executing the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth external parameters upon reaching the calculated stage time for the corresponding sleep stages.

Abstract: Character input error correction is provided by receiving from a keyboard character input by a user. The character input includes character input errors by the user, the character input errors being input of incorrect characters by the user via the keyboard. The character input errors of the character input are automatically identified and classified into character error classification(s). Each character error classification corresponds to a respective visual transformation of input characters. It is determined that a frequency of the identified and classified character input errors exceeds a predefined threshold confidence level for triggering application of keyboard corrections for user input. Based on the determining, keyboard corrections are applied for user input. The applying keyboard corrections includes applying a correction to character(s) displayed for or input by the user. The applied correction is based on at least one of the classification(s) into which the character input errors are classified.

Abstract: Embodiments determine historical geographic travel data of a vehicle over a contaminant exposure time period that is inclusive of a present time; identify a contaminant that is likely located on an external surface of the vehicle as a function of historic meteorological and terrain data of the historical geographic travel data of a vehicle over a contaminant exposure time period; select a cleaning solution that is appropriate for use in cleaning the identified contaminant from the external surface of the vehicle; and drive a vehicle wash system nozzle to use the selected cleaning solution to wash the identified contaminant from the external surface of the vehicle.

Abstract: A computer system monitors a user to assess product preferences. A video from an image capture device monitoring a user is analyzed. An image is selected from the video of the user for image processing, wherein the user is visible in the frame. The selected image is processed to determine one or more products used by the user. One or more product recommendations are determined based on the one or more products used by the user. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for assessing product preferences for a user in substantially the same manner described above.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for generating flavor profile models are provided. An alpha flavor model is determined. An electrode signal is transmitted to a taste simulator based on the alpha flavor model. User feedback is received. A variance between the alpha flavor model and the user feedback is determined. The variance is compared to a predetermined threshold. In response to determining that the variance is greater than the predetermined threshold, a beta flavor model is generated.
