A method, computer program product, and computer system for public speaking guidance is provided. A processor retrieves speaker data regarding a speech made by a user. A processor separates the speaker data into one or more speaker modalities. A processor extracts one or more speaker features from the speaker data for the one or more speaker modalities. A processor generates a performance classification based on the one or more speaker features. A processor sends to the user guidance regarding the speech based on the performance classification.

Multimodal neural network for public speaking guidance

Systems and methods for natural language generation by an edge computing device are disclosed. In one embodiments, a method comprises: receiving, by an edge computing device, event data from an edge event; determining, by the edge computing device, that a network connection to a cloud server is not available; extracting, by the edge computing device, features of the event data; predicting, by a local neural network of the edge computing device, an action for the edge computing device to take based on the features of the event data, wherein the action is associated with a confidence level; and determining, by the edge computing device, whether the confidence level meets a predetermined threshold value.

Natural language generation by an edge computing device

Computer technology for sending an image a device to be authenticated. The image is designed to be classified to a first category by an image classifier, and the first category is different from a nature category of the image. A response message can be received from the device. The response message indicates a second category of the image determined by the device. Then, the device is determined to be an authorized device in response to the second category being consistent with the first category.

Authentication based on image classification

A computer implemented method for matching services to potential receivers of the services that includes registering at least one of service providers and service receivers as members to a service matching system. The service matching system collects data from the members. Permission to collect data from the members is revocable at any time by the members. The method further includes taking an order from a first service receiver to receive goods from a service provider; and calculating a route of the first service receiver to obtain the goods from the service provider. The method further includes matching the route of the first service receiver with a potential delivery route to a second service receiver having an order with the service provider; and offering a promotion to the first service receiver to deliver the order by the second service receiver with the service provider over the potential delivery route.

Intelligent service and customer matching using an information processing system

A method and system for improving an automated facial recognition software system is provided. The method includes automatically detecting a face of a user via an IOT device. An image of the face is retrieved and image portions are extracted from the image and represented as a vector. The user is classified via determined facial feature attributes with respect to a plurality of user type weights stored in a cache and an initial user type of the user is determined. The vector and data indicating the initial user type are transmitted to a server and a process for inferring with respect to the initial user type, the vector, and images in a specified database associated with the initial user type, a final user type of the user s performed. An identity of the user is determined based on the inferring and the identity is transmitted to the IOT device.

Automated facial recognition detection

An approach is provided to provide URLs based on a digital subject matter image (DSMI) received from a requestor. The approach identifies a set of classification labels pertaining to the DSMI and matches the set of classification labels against multiple sets of predefined labels with each of the sets of predefined labels corresponding to a URL. The matching results in a selected URL pertaining to the DSMI with this URL being returned to the requestor. In one embodiment, the approach is performed by a domain name system (DNS).

Image-based domain name system

Aspects generate recommendations in response to messaging content, wherein processors are configured to identify keywords within text content extracted from a received message that are assigned to a topic leaf node within an event taxonomy and a root event node from which the topic leaf node depends; identify a plurality of recommendation items that each match a type of event of the root event node and are linked to the topic node of the identified keyword; determine, for each of the recommendation items, a sender sentiment value as a function of a preference of the sender, and a recipient sentiment value as a function of a preference of the recipient; and present to the sender and the recipient as an event recommendation a subset of the recommendation items that each satisfy a sentiment threshold for the sender sentiment value and the recipient sentiment value.
