An infection risk prediction system may receive a query associated with an infection risk assessment for a geographic location for an infectious disease and obtain associated infectious disease data. The system detects a plurality of objects at the geographical location and a plurality of material categories for the plurality of objects associated. The system determines a usage frequency indicator and spatial-temporal features for each object and creates a risk prediction model based on the lifespan of the virus on the plurality of material categories for each of the plurality of objects based on the viral disease data and the spatial-temporal features for each object. A risk assessment score for each object is determined and an associated heat map is provided to alert a user of potential virus exposures or to provide a routing application to generate a route that minimizes potential pathogen exposure.

Examples of the disclosure enable an information processing system to automatically implement a user interaction diagnostic engine. In some examples, the information processing system analyzes documents to identify parameters associated with profile features and performance metrics. Based on the parameters, correlation values between the profile features and one or more performance metrics are determined. Based on the correlation values, at least one profile feature is identified to improve a parameter associated with the performance metrics. A predictive model associated with the profile features and the performance metrics is generated. One or more actionable items configured to modify the at least one profile feature are determined such that, based on the predictive model, a parameter associated with the performance metrics are predicted to improve upon execution of the one or more actionable items.

A system for media placement comprises a receiving unit to receive media, a scanner to detect an object in the media for placing a placeholder, a checker to provide the placeholder to a user for feedback and receive the feedback. The system also includes an instruction receiving unit to receive instructions for adding special effects to the placeholder, a template generator to generate a template indicating the placeholder in the media, and a machine learner to store the feedback for the placeholder and selection of the special effects for the placeholder. Further, the scanner detects another object in the media or another media and determines a position of another placeholder, based on the stored feedback. The scanner also suggests special effects for addition to the other placeholder, based on the stored selection of the special effects.

A machine learning image processing system performs natural language processing (NLP) and auto-tagging for an image matching process. The system facilitates an interactive process, e.g., through a mobile application, to obtain an image and supplemental user input from a user to execute an image search. The supplemental user input may be provided from a user as speech or text, and NLP is performed on the supplemental user input to determine user intent and additional search attributes for the image search. Using the user intent and the additional search attributes, the system performs image matching on stored images that are tagged with attributes through an auto-tagging process.

Examples of the disclosure enable an information processing system to automatically generate a common data repository including a plurality of documents. In some examples, the information processing system is configured to analyze the documents to identify a plurality of topics. Based on the identified topics, the documents are classified into a plurality of sets. A set is associated with a corresponding topic. One or more correlations between the documents are identified and, based on the identified correlations, one or more user interaction tools are generated including an interaction script.

A digital media playing system includes, in one embodiment, a digital video and/or audio media object, such as a portable digital media container adapted to hold one or more digital storage mediums, that includes a radio frequency identification tag containing RFID tag information. The digital media playing system also includes a trusted media content playing device that has a radio frequency identification tag reader operatively coupled therewith, to read the RFID tag information from the RFID tag that is located on the portable media container and that securely downloads remotely stored audio and/or video media based on the RFID tag information. The RFID tag information that is in the RFID tag includes, in one embodiment, encrypted tag identification information and unencrypted remote content identification information as well as, if desired, portable digital media container authentication data (e.g. player ID). Other RFID enabled digital video and/or audio media objects include movie tickets, concert tickets, 3-D objects, clothing and other forms.

RFID enabled media system and method

An audio and/or video media content providing device includes a controller, such as a server, that is responsive to RFID tag based information obtained from a remote RFID enabled media object. The controller is operative to facilitate access to media content associated with a stored periodically changing media content list. For example, a content registry database may be periodically updated through a suitable user interface to change a link between content identification information read from a remote RFID enabled media object, with media application information so that the same RFID tag may allow the downloading of different media. The link between the content ID and the media ID may be dynamically changed through the controller. This may be advantageous, to provide for example, a Top 10 song card or other RFID enabled object that stays the same but can be used to securely download different media over time.
