A method for automatically generating, correlating, and presenting visual content along with an audio stream associated with an audiobook is provided. The method may further include, in response to receiving an audio stream, automatically segmenting the audio stream into audio segments. The method may also include automatically identifying keywords, topics, and entities associated with each audio segment. The method may further include automatically identifying and retrieving visual content related to the identified keywords, topics, and entities of each audio segment from a visual content repository. The method may also include automatically integrating the identified and retrieved visual content with an audio segment. The method may further include automatically generating and displaying the visual content on the display at the designated time during play of the audio stream.

An embodiment for managing peer-to-peer (P2P) donations in an online transaction is provided. The embodiment may include receiving data relating to a donation agreement from a donor. The embodiment may also include selecting one or more authentication techniques to identify a donee. The embodiment may further include generating a unique redemption authentication token for the donee. The embodiment may also include creating a transient donee account including the generated unique redemption authentication token. The embodiment may further include transferring monetary funds to the created transient donee account with instructions to redeem the transferred monetary funds. The embodiment may also include receiving a request from the donee to redeem the transferred monetary funds utilizing the generated unique redemption authentication token. The embodiment may further include in response to determining the donee is able to be verified, approving the received redemption request.

Peer-to-peer donation management

Sharing data by defining a data encoding table, maintaining a data record database, defining a data encryption code, providing the data encryption code with an outgoing call, receiving an audio response including encrypted data, decrypting the encrypted data, and updating the data record database according to the data.

Securely transmitting data during an audio call

Computer-implemented methods, computer program products, and computer systems for detecting and preventing exploitative calls. The computer-implemented methods include one or more processors configured for receiving voice call data corresponding to an active voice call with a user device, wherein the voice call data comprises caller voice data and user voice data; determining that the caller voice data includes a solicitation of information from a user associated with the user device; retrieving user profile data comprising user health data associated with the user; determining user call stress levels based on the voice call data and the user profile data; and responsive to determining that the user call stress levels exceed a predetermined threshold and that the solicitation of information includes a material information request, generating an alert.

Detecting and preventing exploitative calls

An embodiment for media transit management is provided. The embodiment may include receiving one or more images and one or more pre-set configuration criteria regarding management of an image file. The embodiment may also include monitoring for an attempted sharing of the image file. The embodiment may further include in response to determining each object in the one or more images matches each object in the image file, identifying at least one other user who is attempting to share the image file. The embodiment may also include in response to determining the at least one other user is not authorized to share the image file, analyzing the one or more pre-set configuration criteria correlated with the image file. The embodiment may further include in response to determining the image file does not meet the one or more pre-set configuration criteria, prompting the participating user to respond to a notification.

Media transit management in cyberspace

A system for transmitting an identification code in a telecommunications system via a mobile device. The mobile device includes a component to generate embed an identification code by generating an inaudible signal. The inaudible signal is either ultrasonic or infrasonic. The mobile device also generates an audible signal based on information received from a microphone associated with the mobile device, merges the inaudible signal with the audible signal to produce a combined signal, and transmits the combined signal from the mobile device to the other device via the wireless network.

System for embedding an identification code in a phone call via an inaudible signal

A computer system provides intelligent context-based control of air flow. An identity of a user and a location of the user within an area that includes one or more vents associated with a climate control system are identified. User preferences are determined based on the identity of the user. Characteristics of air flow in the area are adjusted based on the user preferences the user and the location of the user, wherein the characteristics of the air flow comprise one or more from a group of: a direction, and a flow rate. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for providing intelligent context-based control of air flow in substantially the same manner described above.

Intelligent context-based control of air flow

An online store offering a product that is currently unavailable can still fulfill an order for the product by querying a multi-store inventory database to see if the product is available from brick-and-mortar stores near the customer. Proximity of local stores is based on a customer location in the customer's profile. Local store selection can be based on product matching policies such as a threshold price difference for the product compared to the online store price. If the customer approves local store pickup, the service generates a voucher to purchase the product directly from the local stores, and presents it to the customer via the online presence. The customer can then redeem the voucher at any of the indicated local stores and pick up the product. When the system receives confirmation of redemption of the voucher, a credit is issued from the online store to the local store.

Data-driven based online-local store match

A method, apparatus and computer program product for dynamically grouping browser tabs in a web browser user interface is described. The web page content of a plurality of open web page tabs in a web browser displayed on a display of a computer are analyzed. Sets of tab group criteria, each set of tab group criteria for a respective tab group and based on user intent are used to evaluate the web page content. Based on the analyzing, which ones of the plurality of open web page tabs respectively satisfy a set of tab group criteria are determined. The plurality of open web page tabs is grouped into respective tab groups based on the determination. The tab groups are presented in the web browser display. Each tab group display contains tabs representing a subset of the plurality of open web page tabs which satisfy a respective set of tab group criteria.
