G06F 21/57 - Certifying or maintaining trusted computer platforms, e.g. secure boots or power-downs, version controls, system software checks, secure updates or assessing vulnerabilities
G06F 21/55 - Detecting local intrusion or implementing counter-measures
A computer-implemented system, method, and computer program product are described that predicts a time in which a participant of a group of participants may speak in a group meeting. The prediction is based in part on latency between each participant in the group of participants and learned voice patterns of each respective participant. Once a prediction is determined, a cue to speak or remain silent is provided as one of a visual or aural cue to the participant to speak during the group meeting. Predicting a time in which the participant of a group of participants may speak includes training a lingual processing model iteratively for each respective participant to learn voice patterns of participants.
A dynamic user interface (UI) input system and method for smart glasses based on availability states of a user is provided. In embodiments, a method includes determining, by a computing device of smart glasses, an initial availability state of a user's hands for a user interface (UI) navigation event based on incoming image data; selecting, by the computing device, a UI configuration and a control profile for the UI navigation event from stored UI configurations and control profiles of the user based on the initial availability state of the user's hands; and initiating, by the computing device, the UI navigation event based on the selected UI configuration and the control profile, wherein content is displayed in a virtual UI of the smart glasses according to the UI configuration, and UI navigation by the user is controlled based on the control profile.
A computer-implemented method includes: monitoring, by a computing device, outputs of sensors associated with a machine that receives magnetic stripe cards; in response to the monitoring, detecting, by the computing device, the output of at least one of the sensors indicates an event; in response to the detecting the event, determining, by the computing device, a number of the sensors whose output indicates a respective event during a predefined time period; selecting, by the computing device, a security action from a plurality of predefined security actions based on the determined number of the sensors whose output indicates a respective event during the predefined time period; and initiating, by the computing device, the security action.
