20100231714 | VIDEO PATTERN RECOGNITION FOR AUTOMATING EMERGENCY SERVICE INCIDENT AWARENESS AND RESPONSE - Video analysis capabilities can be integrated into an emergency response system and/or a video operations center (VOC) monitoring for emergency incidents. At least one computer program driven response action involving detecting patterns in video streams that comprise video of an incident can be performed. This response action can be directed to VOC personnel and/or to emergency response system personnel. Further, the response action can result in an automated responses to an emergency incident and/or to an alerting of humans monitoring video to focus on a particular video stream/incident. One such response action, which increases video capture activity at a geographic location of the incident, can occur responsive to a receipt of an emergency call by the emergency response system. Another response action can analyze at least one video stream of the geographic location and can automatically dispatch (in approximately real time) an emergency responder to the geographic location. Still another action can analyze the video stream of a geographic location, can determine a high likelihood of an emergency incident, and can provide an alert in a user interface of the emergency response system or a VOC. Video of the incident can also be provided in the user interface. | 09-16-2010 |
20150058154 | SHOPPING LIST OPTIMIZATION - An optimization server optimizes a shopping list. The server receives a shopping list including a plurality of items to purchase. The server determines a discount to the price of one or more of the plurality of items, a sentiment score for one or more of the plurality of items, and a sentiment score for a retailer of one or more of the plurality of items. The server groups the plurality of items into a plurality of sub-lists, transmits the plurality of sub-lists to a respective plurality of retail servers, and receives a plurality of bids in response. The server generates optimized shopping lists based at least on the discount, the sentiment scores, and the plurality of bids. The server regenerates at least one of the optimized shopping lists based at least on a dynamic discount condition, a dynamic price condition, or a dynamic inventory condition. | 02-26-2015 |
