Media sequencing method to provide location-relevant entertainment
Systems, methods, and computer-program products are described for determining current location information which includes determining whether an object is moving by comparing the current location information with previous location information. Future location information is calculated and a point of interest is filtered using the future location information. A media asset is then matched to the filtered point of interest and a current score is determined for the matched media asset. Determining a current score includes determining a window in which the matched media asset is geographically relevant to the future location information, and updating the matched media asset score when the future location information changes. An ordered playlist is dynamically generated according to the future location information by repeatedly prioritizing and sequencing matched media assets according to the current score for each matched media asset, and matched media assets are played or displayed in the ordered playlist.
METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTING INFORMATION VIA MULTIPLE FORMS OF DELIVERY SERVICES
A content distribution facilitation system is described comprising configured servers and a network interface configured to interface with a plurality of terminals in a client server relationship and optionally with a cloud-based storage system. A request from a first source for content comprising content criteria is received, the content criteria comprising content subject matter. At least a portion of the content request content criteria is transmitted to a selected content contributor. If recorded content is received from the first content contributor, the first source is provided with access to the received recorded content. The recorded content may be transmitted via one or more networks to one or more destination devices. Optionally, a voice analysis and/or facial recognition engine are utilized to determine if the recorded content is from the first content contributor.
COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHOD FOR IMPROVING A SOCIAL NETWORK SITE COMPUTER NETWORK, AND TERMINAL, SYSTEM AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR THE SAME
A method, at a terminal in a digital communications network, comprising: establishing direct or indirect communication access and linkage between the user-operated terminal and at least one remote computer(s) on which are stored, or by which access is available to prevent legible display of, stored user account object data; displaying indicia, or broadcasting data, representative of or indicating one or more predetermined criteria for selecting a subset of the stored user account object data; collecting data, representative of, or indicating, only the subset of the stored user account object data; and transmitting instructions to prevent legible display of the subset of the stored user account object data, according to the collected data representative of, or indicating, the one or more predetermined criteria for selecting the subset of the stored user account object data, from the terminal to the at least one remote computer(s). A terminal, system, and computer readable medium are also disclosed.
Customized recommendations of multimedia content streams
Customized recommendations of multimedia content streams are provided herein. A method can include facilitating, by a network device of a wireless network and comprising a processor, an output of a recommendation of a first multimedia content stream at a communications device based on a monitored interaction determined to have been performed by an identified entity at the communications device. The method can also include facilitating, by the network device, a first transmission of the first multimedia content stream to the communications device in response to an acceptance of the recommendation of the first multimedia content stream received from the communications device. The first multimedia content stream can be renderable for consumption at the communications device.
System and method for crime investigation
A system and method for investigating crimes occurring at locations that are communicatively connected by a central server is disclosed. The investigation is highly automated and obtains evidence using computer aided searches of historic surveillance data gathered at locations within a computer search area. The investigation also utilizes active searches of real-time surveillance data gathered at the locations in response to a be-on-the-look-out (BOLO) alert sent to the locations from the central server. Based on evidence obtained from these searches, the search area may be updated and the searches may be repeated to follow a moving crime pattern/route. In addition, the information provided from the searches may facilitate the prediction of a location that is likely to experience a crime in the future. Accordingly, the central server may transmit a high alert to the predicted location.
ELEVATOR ROUTE SELECTION SYSTEM
A method and system for providing destination dispatch in an elevator control system, includes identifying a user, retrieving a user profile associated with the user, receiving a destination request associated with the user, analyzing the user profile and the destination request, determining a plurality of assignments, identifying a preferred assignment of the plurality of assignments, and prompting the user to opt-out of the preferred assignment.
CONTENT RECOMMENDATION USER INTERFACE
A computing device presents a user interface in which graphical representations of content may be positioned based on user input. Inclusionary and exclusionary portions of metadata associated with the content may be ranked based on the positions and/or positional relationships of the graphical representations in the user interface. The computing device generates content recommendations based on the rankings. Presented content associated with the content recommendations may be provided to a user in response to selection of a content recommendation. The content recommendations may be modified in response to changes to the user interface received from a user.
ASSURANCE OF IDENTITY INFORMATION
A computer-implemented method for assuring identity information representing identity of an entity is provided. The method determines (210) that a payment is made to a payment recipient using an account associated with the entity. The identity information of the entity is determined (220). A type of the payment recipient is determined (230). The method determines (240) a level of assurance associated with the identity information based on the type of the payment determining that a payment is made to a payment recipient.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PROCESSING AND DISPLAYING REVIEW DATA BASED ON ONE OR MORE STORED RELATIONSHIP ASSOCIATIONS AND ONE OR MORE RULE SETS
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and systems for processing and displaying online review data of products. In one implementation, a method for processing and displaying online review data may include: acquiring the review data of a target object in accordance with an access trigger instruction of a target user; determining whether an association relationship exists between the target user and a user corresponding to the review data in a pre-established multidimensional user relationship table; in response to the association relationship existing, acquiring the association relationship; and displaying an identifier of the association relationship. Embodiments consistent with the present disclosure optimize the display of review data of a target object, which can help a user better understand the target object, thereby improving the credibility of the review data of the target object and improving user experience.
