Mechanisms are provided to hypothetical scenario evaluations with regard to infectious disease dynamics based on similar regions. A user definition of a hypothetical scenario for a target region is received which specifies scenario features affecting an infectious disease spread amongst a population within the target region. Other predefined regions, in the set of predefined regions, having similar region characteristics to the target region are identified and attributes of the other predefined regions corresponding to the scenario features are identified. Modified model parameter(s) for an infectious disease computer model are derived based on the identified attributes. An instance of the infectious disease computer model is configured with the modified model parameter(s) and the instance is executed on case report data for the target region to generate a prediction for an infectious disease spread in the target region according to the hypothetical scenario, which is then output.

Hypothetical scenario evaluation in infectious disease dynamics based on similar regions

Mechanisms are provided for compartmental epidemiological computer modeling based on mobility data. Machine learning training of an isolation rate prediction computer model is performed to generate a trained isolation rate prediction model that predicts an isolation rate of a biological population. Isolation data is received which comprises data indicating a measure of mobility of the biological population. The trained isolation rate prediction model is executed on input features extracted from the isolation data to generate a predicted isolation rate. A compartmental epidemiological computer model, comprising a plurality of compartments representing states of a population with regard to an infectious disease, is executed to simulate a progression of the infectious disease and flows of portions of the population from between compartments in the compartmental epidemiological computer model are controlled based on the predicted isolation rate.

Controlling compartmental flows in epidemiological modeling based on mobility data

A computer system manages a health condition based on conditions of an environment. Health information of a user is analyzed to determine a health condition affected by environmental conditions. One or more events for the user are obtained based on personal information. The environmental conditions for one or more event locations are determined. One or more preventive items are indicated for the user to attend the one or more events in order for the health condition to tolerate the environmental conditions of the one or more event locations. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for managing a health condition based on conditions of an environment in substantially the same manner described above.

Managing health conditions using preventives based on environmental conditions

For locations along a route a user will be traveling, the alert system for environmental changes compares first and second sets of images associated with first and second timestamps, respectively. The alert system determines degrees of environmental changes for the locations based on the comparisons. The alert system then generates and sends an alert to a user device. In determining the degrees of environment changes, the alert system retrieves first and second set of images matching a given location and associated with first and second timestamps. The alert system identifies first and second sets of objects and extracts first and second sets of attributes for the first and second sets of images. The alert system compares the first and second sets of attributes and the first and second set of objects, and determines a given degree of environmental changes at the given location based on the comparisons.

Alert system for environmental changes

A computer system monitors users to capture contextual and environmental data for managing adverse events of those users. A level of risk for occurrence of an adverse event from performing a medical related activity is determined based on the medical related activity, a medical profile, and a risk profile of the user. The user is monitored to capture environmental and contextual information for the adverse event. The captured information is stored to associate the captured information with the adverse event. In response to occurrence of the adverse event, the user is prompted to provide information pertaining to conditions surrounding the adverse event. The stored information for the adverse event is updated with the user-provided information, and is transmitted to a provider associated with the medical related activity. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for managing adverse events in substantially the same manner described above.

Monitoring users to capture contextual and environmental data for managing adverse events

A bioinformatics system for autonomous hypothesis generation for relatedness of seemingly independent concepts having tenuous or no prior known relationship in a knowledgebase. Independent concept pairs are identified in a question, and they are evaluated in light of lists of their similar concepts, and in light input documents, word embeddings, and co-occurrence matrices that are organized as a time series. Relationships between the independent concepts are hypothesized based on temporal analysis of relatedness measures of their similar concepts, measured via candidate connecting concepts.

Autonomous system for hypotheses generation

Communication session data pertaining to a first user can be received during an electronic communication session in which the first user and at least a second user participate. The communication session data can be analyzed. Based on the analysis, a concentration level score of the first user can be determined. A contextual indicator indicating the concentration level score of the first user can be generated. The contextual indicator can be communicated to a second client device used by the second user. Communicating the first contextual indicator to the second client device can initiate the second client device to present, in a user interface used by the second user for the communication session, a first user interface element indicating the concentration level score of the first user.
