According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for tracking occupancy on a transit system is provided. The present invention may include receiving passenger information for passengers boarding a public transit system comprising one or more cars; counting the passengers within each of the cars of the public transit system based on the location of each of the passengers; identifying, based on the location of each of the passengers, whether each of the passengers is seated or standing; and displaying, based on the counting and identifying of the passengers, the current occupancy of each of the cars.

Smart train

Embodiments include methods, systems, and computer program products for modifying driving behavior. Aspects include obtaining driving data for a driver. Then developing, by a processor, a driving profile based on the driving data for the driver, wherein the driving profile includes one or more driving behaviors. Aspects also include obtaining location data for the driver and obtaining a set of driving rules from one or more databases based upon the location data for the driver. Additionally, aspects include comparing, by the processor, the driving profile to the set of driving rules to derive a set of suggested driving changes.

Modifying driving behavior

An augmented reality system is provided. Aspects includes a device comprising a user interface, a camera, and a controller, the controller operable to receive data associated with a repair item. The controller is further operable to capture, by the camera, media associated with the repair item and analyze the data and the media to determine a candidate repair component of the repair item, wherein the candidate repair component is located at a target location. The controller is further operable to provide, via the user interface, a repair method for repairing the candidate repair component at the target location.

System for maintenance and repair using augmented reality

An example operation may include one or more of a network interface configured to receive requests transmitted from client devices, each request comprising a plurality of data attributes, a processor configured to detect a pattern from within the received requests, the detected pattern comprising a plurality of requests that share one or more data attributes in common and a storage configured to store the detected pattern as a hash-linked chain of blocks within a blockchain, wherein the hash-linked chain of blocks comprises a sequence of blocks corresponding to a sequence of the plurality of requests included in the detected pattern, and, after the first block, each subsequent block in the hash-linked chain of blocks includes a hash of request data that is stored in a previous block.

Blockchain system for pattern recognition

Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods and systems for detecting incompatibilities in a computer system. The method includes logging incoming requests to a target component; receiving changes to the target component; analyzing the changed target component; performing a simulation to determine the compatibility of the target component with respect to one or more other components, and upon the finding of an incompatibility causing a notification.

Detecting software incompatibilities within a system stack

Techniques are provided for performing automated operations to analyze and prioritize incoming user messages. One or more indications of a plurality of messages sent to one or more recipient users is received. Based at least in part on one or more natural-language processing libraries, multiple messages of the plurality are analyzed. Analyzing the multiple messages includes determining one or more sentiments associated with each of the multiple messages, and generating, based at least in part on the determining of the one or more sentiments, aggregate sentiment information regarding one or more subsets of the multiple messages. Based at least in part on the analyzing of the received message, indications are provided of the aggregate sentiment information generated regarding one or more subsets of messages.

Automated message sentiment analysis and aggregation

An indication of receipt of a first e-mail is received. A determination is made whether the first e-mail matches, within a threshold, a group of e-mails. An image associated with the group of e-mails is retrieved. The retrieved image is assigned to the first e-mail and the retrieved image is displayed with the first e-mail in a list of e-mails.

Image representation of e-mails

Techniques are provided for performing automated operations to analyze and prioritize incoming user messages. An indication of a message sent to a recipient user is received. Based at least in part on configuration information associated with the recipient user, the received message is analyzed. Analyzing the received message includes at least one of determining sentiments associated with the received message, determining intentions associated with the received message, determining document classes associated with the received message, and generating summary information corresponding to the received message. Based at least in part on the analyzing of the received message, a prioritized listing of multiple messages associated with the recipient user, including the received message, is displayed to the recipient user.

Automated receiver message sentiment analysis, classification and prioritization

Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for onboarding a new employee to an organization. Aspects include receiving, by a processor, employee data comprising an employee group associated with the new employee of the organization. Identifying other employees that belong to the employee group and obtaining a set of permissions associated with each of the other employees. Determining a set of group permissions based on a combination of the set of permissions of each of the other employees. Aspects also include calculating an access score for each of the set of group permissions, and determining a set of suggested access permissions for the new employee based on the set of group permissions and the access score.

Cognitive authentication with employee onboarding

A computer-implemented method for tracking an item having an electromagnetic frequency signature is provided. The method includes obtaining, using a processor system of a device, an electromagnetic frequency signature of an item. The item associated with the obtained electromagnetic frequency signature is identified and the location of the device at the time the item is identified. The identity of the item associated with the electromagnetic frequency signature and the location of the device at the time the electromagnetic frequency signature is obtained are recorded for associating the item with the location of the device.

Item locator

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and computer program products for automatically identifying a comment change deficiency by a code editing component executed by a processor. The automatic identification of the comment changes includes determining whether one or more character changes exist between a first code version and a second code version and determining whether one or more logical changes exist between the first code version and the second code version. Note that the first code comment relates to the character or the logical changes within the first code version. Further, the automatic identification of the comment changes includes identifying the at least one comment related to the character or the logical changes and generating a notification including the at least one comment.
