According to one embodiment, the interface-providing apparatus comprises an identifying unit and a generating unit. The identifying unit identifies a keyword from dialogue data including a question text to request information, and a response text in reply thereto. The generating unit generates display information to display a user interface for receiving feedback input relating to a degree of usefulness of a keyword when searching for the requested information.

A system and method for true peer-to-peer automatic teller machine transactions using mobile device payment systems, where a user may receive physical cash in exchange for digital currency from another user, without either one of them having to have a merchant account or a credit/debit card clearing system through a payment processor, comprising a smartphone with an associate peer-to-peer ATM application, blockchain datastore, GPS satellite, cellular tower, and smart wallet application.

Method of predicting a response of a subject to food is disclosed. The method comprises: selecting a food to which a response of the subject is unknown; accessing a first database having data describing the subject but not a response of the subject to the selected food; accessing a second database having data pertaining to responses of other subjects to foods, the responses of the other subjects including responses of at least one other subject to the selected food or a food similar to said selected food; and analyzing the databases based on the selected food to estimate the response of the subject to the selected food.

A thin client may be utilized to facilitate data exchanges between two devices (e.g., a remote computer and a portable device). In some embodiments, the two devices may utilize differing communications protocols. The thin client may further be configured with a rules engine that determines one or more actions to be performed in response to one or more stimuli. The thin client may manage the processing flow between the two devices according to one or more predefined rules that are interpretable by the rules engine. The rules may be pushed to the thin client via any suitable device enabling the functionality of the thin client to be configured and/or modified without having to update the hardware and/or software of the thin client.

Systems and methods are shown for providing private local sponsored content selection and improving intelligence models through distribution among mobile devices. This allows greater data gathering capabilities through the use of the sensors of the mobile devices as well as data stored on data storage components of the mobile devices to create predicted models while offering better opportunities to preserve privacy. Locally stored profiles comprising machine intelligence models may also be used to determine the relevance of the data gathered and in improving an aggregated model for identifying the relevance of data and the selection of sponsored content items. Distributed optimization is used in conjunction with privacy techniques to create the improved machine intelligence models. Publishers may also benefit from the improved privacy by protecting the statistics of type or volume of sponsored content items shown with publisher content.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a storage device located at an edge of a network, user device data from a first user device and receiving, by the storage device, metadata associated with an environment of the first user device. The method also includes classifying, by the storage device, the metadata into a category to generate classified metadata and applying, by the storage device, a policy to the classified metadata to generate policy-based classified metadata. The method further includes assigning, by the storage device, one or more tokens to the policy-based classified metadata and assigning, by the storage device, one or more tags to the policy-based classified metadata. The method further includes transmitting, by the storage device, the one or more tags to a second user device in accordance with the one or more tokens.

In some implementations there may be provided a system. The system may include a processor and a memory. The memory may include program code which causes operations when executed by the processor. The operations may include analyzing a series of events contained in received data. The series of events may include events that occur during the execution of a data object. The series of events may be analyzed to at least extract, from the series of events, subsequences of events. A machine learning model may determine a classification for the received data. The machine learning model may classify the received data based at least on whether the subsequences of events are malicious. The classification indicative of whether the received data is malicious may be provided. Related methods and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also disclosed.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving at a head-mounted device a speech input from a user and a visual input captured by cameras of the head-mounted device, wherein the visual input comprises subjects and attributes associated with the subjects, and wherein the speech input comprises a co-reference to one or more of the subjects, resolving entities corresponding to the subjects associated with the co-reference based on the attributes and the co-reference, and presenting a communication content responsive to the speech input and the visual input at the head-mounted device, wherein the communication content comprises information associated with executing results of tasks corresponding to the resolved entities.

Apparatus for generating a putative ontology from a data structure associated with a data store, the apparatus including an electronic processing device that generates a putative ontology by determining at least one concept table in the data structure, determining at least one validated attribute within the at least one concept table, determining at least one selected attribute value from the at least one validated attribute and generating at least one ontology class using the at least one attribute value.

A method, computing platform, and computer program product are provided. A computing platform receives, for a clinical trial, study design information including a set of parameters related to a success of a clinical trial and factors related to a relevance of the parameters. The computing platform provides multiple sets of varying parameter values. At least one trained machine learning model is applied to the study design information including the sets of parameter values to predict multiple success scores including a predicted overall success score. The computing platform outputs the provided set of values for the set of parameters that are associated with the at least one trained machine learning model predicting a best overall success score for the clinical trial.
