A computer-implemented system includes an edge module and at least one input device coupled to the edge module. The at least one input device is configured to generate data input signals. The system also includes a cognitive module coupled to the edge module. The cognitive module includes a perception sub-module coupled to the edge module. The perception sub-module is configured to receive the data input signals. The cognitive module also includes a learning sub-module coupled to the perception sub-module. The learning sub-module is configured to adaptively learn at least in part utilizing the data input signals.

Computer-implemented system with adaptive cognitive features and method of using the same

A system and method for identifying characters using a processor and a sparse distributed memory (SDM) module. The system and method are configured to receive image data relating to an object having a surface with physical markings thereon. The physical markings include characters-of-interest. The system and method are also configured to analyze the image data to convert at least one of the characters-of-interest in the image data into a corresponding feature vector. The system and method are also configured to identify the characters-of-interest using the feature vector and the SDM module. A suggested identity for the characters-of-interest is provided.

System and method for identifying physical markings on objects

A system for processing a computational task is presented. The system includes a plurality of nodes operationally coupled to one another via one or more networks. The plurality of nodes includes a base node including a processing subsystem configured to receive the computational task, select a subset of available nodes from the plurality of nodes based upon a present status, processing capability, distance, network throughput, range, resources, features, or combinations thereof of the plurality of nodes, divide the computational task into a plurality of sub-tasks, distribute the plurality of sub-tasks among the subset of available nodes based upon a number of nodes in the subset of available nodes, completion time period allowed for the plurality of sub-tasks, a distribution criteria, level of security required for the completion of the plurality of sub-tasks, resources available with the subset of available nodes, processing capability of the subset of available nodes, range of the subset of available nodes, features in the subset of available nodes, reliability of the subset of available nodes, trust in the subset of available nodes, the current load on the subset of available nodes, domain of the plurality of sub-tasks, or combinations thereof, receive sub-solutions corresponding to the plurality of sub-tasks from the subset of available nodes in a desired time period, and reassemble the sub-solutions to determine a solution corresponding to the computational task.

Method and system for distributed computation having sub-task processing and sub-solution redistribution

A system for determining instances when a vehicle's indicated speed exceeds a governing speed includes a receiver to receive information from which a vehicle's location envelope, indicated direction of travel, and indicated speed can be derived, and a processor. The processer is configured to ascertain a location envelope in which the vehicle is located, an indicated speed of the vehicle, and a direction of travel of the vehicle at a sample time. It is also configured to select the governing speed for the vehicle at the sample time, which includes ascertaining possible road segments with at least a portion within the location envelope, eliminating road segments with a road segment direction of travel inconsistent with the indicated direction of travel, and selecting as the governing speed a speed associated with a remaining road segment. The processor will then determine if the indicated speed exceeds the governing speed.
