Data characterizing a system is received at an electronic processor. For example, parking event data from parking sensors of a parking facility is received. The electronic processor constructs a current state for the system (e.g. parking occupancy state of the parking facility) at a current time from the received data. State probabilities at a future time are computed (e.g. occupancy state probabilities are computed for the parking facility) using a continuous-time Markov chain model modified by multiplying the time input to the model by a random variable and scaling the state probabilities by an expectation of the random variable. In parking occupancy forecasting, parking guidance information is generated based at least on the computed occupancy state probabilities, and is transmitted to an electronic device other than the electronic processor (e.g. a parking recommendation transmitted to a vehicle navigation device, or a control signal transmitted to a “lot full” sign).
A computer-implemented system and method for providing available parking spaces is provided. Parking spaces, each associated with a hold time, are monitored.

A number of the possible parking spaces is reduced by removing those available parking spaces that fail to satisfy one or more parking preferences of the user. The remaining available parking spaces are sent to the user for selection.

Efficient optimization of schedules in a public transportation system
Methods and systems are disclosed for optimizing public transportation schedules. Shifts from current schedules associated with a public transportation system can be evaluated. The impact on waiting times can then be determined, based on evaluating the shifts from the current schedules. Schedules associated with the public transportation system are then optimized based on the impact on the waiting times. Public transport schedules can thus be optimized by minimizing the waiting time during, for example, transfers. Using ticket validation data to construct a realistic scenario-based model of the waiting times, a goal of this approach is to compute shifts of the current schedules that reduce the overall expected waiting time.

Method and system for data processing to recommend list of physical stores in real-time
The disclosed embodiments illustrate method and system for data processing to recommend a list of physical stores in real-time for user-specified products and/or services. The method includes receiving a request, that comprises one or more products and/or services and one or more user-defined parameters, from a user-computing device. The method further includes aggregating information associated with the received request, profile information of a user, real-time traffic information, and geographical locations of a plurality of physical stores. Further, the method includes generating a recommendation list based on the aggregated information and a similarity score of the user for each of the one or more products and/or services. The method further includes transmitting the generated recommendation list to the user-computing device. The user may select a recommendation from the recommendation list for purchasing and/or availing products and/or services based on the selected recommendation.
The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for generating recommendations for client process execution of one or more client processes corresponding to a plurality of clients of an organization. The method comprises retrieving an event log including event data captured during execution of one or more processes in the organization to service a plurality of clients of a predefined type. The event log is analyzed across the plurality of clients to determine cross-clientele information including a process compliance deviation between an observed and an expected client process execution of the one or more processes. Thereafter, a set of root-causes of the process compliance deviation is determined based on process models of the one or more processes and/or decision rules of the organization. Further, one or more recommendations for the client process execution of the one or more processes of the organization are generated, based on the set of root-causes.
A pruning method includes representing a set of sequences in a data structure. Each sequence s includes a first symbol w and a context c of at least one symbol. Some of the sequences are associated with a conditional probability p(w|c), based on observations of cw in training data. For others, p(w|c) is computed as a function of the probability p(w|ĉ) of the respective symbol w in a back-off context ĉ, p(w|ĉ) being based on observations of sequence ĉw in the training data. A scoring function ƒ(cw) value is computed for each sequence in the set, based on p(w|c) for the sequence and a probability distribution p(s) of each symbol in the sequence if it is removed from the set of sequences. Iteratively, one of the represented sequences is selected to be removed, based on the computed scoring function values, and the scoring function values of remaining sequences are updated.
A method and a system for response evaluation of users from electronic documents are disclosed. In an embodiment, one or more questions and a first response pertaining to each of the one or more questions are extracted from one or more first electronic documents. Further, a second response pertaining to each of the one or more extracted questions and metadata are extracted from one or more second electronic documents. For the second response pertaining to each of the one or more extracted questions, a score is determined based on one or more similarity measures that correspond to a category of each of the one or more extracted questions. Thereafter, the response evaluation is rendered on a user interface displayed on a display screen. The response evaluation comprises at least the determined score for the second response pertaining to each of the one or more extracted questions.

The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods of data processing for training a target domain classifier to label text segments. The method includes identifying a set of common keywords with same label from a set of source keywords and a set of target keywords. The method includes training a first classifier, based on the set of common keywords, to label a first set of target text segments. The method includes training a second classifier based on at least a subset of the labeled first set of target text segments. The method includes training a third classifier, based on the first classifier and the second classifier, to label a second set of target text segments, wherein a subset of the labeled second set of target text segments is utilized for re-training the second classifier. The method further includes determining labels of another plurality of target text segments based on the re-trained second classifier.
A system and method for facilitating parking enforcement officer performance in real time with the aid of a digital computer is provided. A time-based active representational model of the city is created by fusing sensory data collected from various sources around a city with numerical data gleaned from historical and on-going activities, including parking regulation citation and warning numbers, resource allocations, and so on. The model can be used to form quantitative predictions of expected violations, revenue stream, and so forth, that can then be used as recommendations as to where to enforce and when, so as to maximize the utilization of the limited resources represented by the officers on the street. Moreover, the performance of the officers can be weighed against expectations of performance postulated from the quantitative predictions.
