Abstract:
Using an analytical model, a problem related to a product is identified from a collection of report data, the product being a three dimensional (3D) solid having a shape and produced from a manufacturing process. The problem is correlated with a set of factors. The set of factors describes a circumstance in which a user performs an operation of the product. According to a weight assigned to the problem, the problem is selected for prototyping. Using a processor and a memory, the set of factors and the operation are simulated by using a modified design of the product. In response to the modified design solving the problem, a specification of the modified design is provided for 3D printing to the user.
Abstract:
A vehicle accident detection method and system is provided. The method includes receiving location coordinates associated with a location of an occurring vehicular accident. Data associated with possible causes of the vehicular accident is received from sensors. Traffic related rules associated with a geographical location are retrieved and analyzed with respect to the data. Parameters associated with at least one vehicle involved in the vehicular accident and a possible cause are determined via execution of programming logic and transmitted to additional systems. The possible cause for the vehicular accident is determined from all possible causes based on matching current and historical accident circumstances. Additionally, weighting factors may be available and adjusted over time for accurate accident detection. A possible cause comprising a greatest weighting factor may be used to identify a most likely cause.
Abstract:
A method and system implemented for generating a music recommendation intended to surprise and delight a user using data and computer analytics. The method and system collects and categorizes musical preferences using past preferences, user demographics, social media data and psychological variables which include the Big-5 personality traits of the user to generate a profile containing preferred musical parameters. The method and system categorize music based on different dimensions and compare music with a user generated profile containing preferred music parameters. The method and system may search for additional music across two vectors, parameters that closely resemble the preferred musical parameters, and outlying parameters that extend outside the preferred parameters, in order to locate and present musical recommendations that have similarities to the preferred music of the user, but variable enough to surprise and delight the user.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing a food product recommendation are disclosed. A computer-implemented method includes: determining, by a computing device, that a user with a mobile device enters a store; obtaining, by the computing device, user data that is based on wearable health data, taste data, and preference data of the user; obtaining, by the computing device, store data for plural food products; determining, by the computing device, a recommended food product from the plural food products based on comparing the user data to the store data; and providing, by the computing device, an indication of the recommended one of the plural food products for display on the mobile device of the user. The user data may be that of a single user or plural users, such as a family.

Abstract:
A method and system for analyzing customer feedback is provided. The method includes accessing a keyword and word mapping database and receiving consumer feedback data associated with a product or service. The consumer feedback data includes feedback data groups. Each group is divided into segments based on word analysis. Each segment is analyzed with respect to the keyword and thesaurus database. A score is generated for each segment and a composite score is generated for each feedback data group. Each composite score is stored.
Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide geospatial-temporal next-best-action decisions. Specifically, a predictive modeling tool is configured to receive, from a user, a first instance of unstructured data, the unstructured data containing an indicator of a transacting opportunity, and generate a profile for the user by combining the unstructured data with structured data, the profile including personality characteristics and identifying information of the user. The profile is used to identify the user as a producer of a second instance of unstructured data by comparing the personality characteristics and identifying information of the user to the second instance of unstructured data. A commercial offer is then generated based on information from the profile of the user and at least one of the first instance of unstructured data or the second instance of unstructured data, and the offer is communicated to the user when the user is located within a predetermined proximity to a retailer.
Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide data clustering and user modeling for next-best-action decisions. Specifically, a modeling tool is configured to: receive indicators within unstructured social data from a plurality of users; analyze the unstructured social data of each of the plurality of users to assign a set of feature vectors to each of the plurality of users, each feature vector corresponding to one or more personality characteristics of each of the plurality of users; and analyze the feature vectors to identify two or more users from the plurality of users sharing a set of similar feature vectors. The modeling tool is further configured to: group the two or more users from the plurality of users sharing the set of similar feature vectors to form a cluster; identify attributes of the cluster; and input the attributes of the cluster into a predictive model to determine an offer corresponding to the cluster.
Abstract:
A method and system are provided for next location prediction. The method includes inferring, by a hardware processor, a store layout, based on user location data and user transaction data for a plurality of users. The method further includes clustering, by the hardware processor, the plurality of users based on the user transaction data to form a set of clusters. The method also includes ensembling, by the hardware processor, users within each of the clusters and building a location prediction model for each of the clusters. The method additionally includes predicting, by the hardware processor, a next location of a particular user from the plurality of users based on a weighted vote taken over the location prediction model for the cluster corresponding to the particular user. The cluster corresponding to the particular user includes at least one other user from the plurality of users in addition to the particular user.
Abstract:
A method and system for improving wearable device function control is provided. The method includes detecting a first gesture executed by a user. A speed and direction of the first gesture; an eye focus of the user, and a time period associated with eye focus being directed towards a display portion of a wearable device are detected. The first gesture is analyzed with respect to previously determined mapping data, the speed and direction of the first gesture, the eye focus of the user, and the time period. In response, a specified function of the wearable device associated with the first gesture is determined and executed.
