Abstract:

A computer system and method where text is recognized from a real world image, and this recognized text is used as input data for a processing program selected by a user. A computer system and method where text is recognized from a real world image, and contextual information is used in conjunction with the text to develop a semantic denotation of the recognized text. The contextual information may include GPS location data. The contextual information may include previous images, captured shortly prior to the image with the recognized text. A computer system and method wherein text is recognized from a real world image, then normalized to be in the plane of the image, then translated and then the translated text is made into an image that is anti-normalized and inserted into the original image (or an image similar to the original image). In this way, the translated text will appear realistically in place of the original untranslated text of the real world image.

International Classification:

G06Q 10/10
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Methods, systems and computer program products for determining and providing an availability status of an individual in an open working environment are provided. Aspects include obtaining historical usage data, communication data, calendar data, and statuses set data from selected network-connected devices used by the individual, and calculating a current availability status for the individual based on the historical usage data, the communication data, calendar data, and the statuses set data. Aspects also include calculating a predicted future availability status for the individual based on the historical usage data, the communication data, calendar data, and the statuses set data, and visibly displaying proximate the individual's workspace the current availability status and the predicted future availability status to others in the open working environment.

Appl. No.:

14/164803

Inventors:

- Armonk NY, US
Christopher A. Robbins - Monroe Twp. NJ, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes writing, into a tree content column of a tree table, content for a plurality of rows of the tree table. The content spans multiple hierarchical levels, and the content in each of the rows is commonly aligned within the tree content column. A level-indicating icon is associated with each of the hierarchical levels of the tree table. A first level-indicating icon for a first hierarchical level of the tree table is positioned in two or more distinct rows of the tree table having content in the first hierarchical level, and a second level-indicating icon for a second hierarchical level of the tree table is positioned in at least one row of the tree table having content in the second hierarchical level. The tree table is rendered by a computer processor.

International Classification:

G06T 11/20

US Classification:

3454402

Abstract:

A technique is provided for a graphical user interface on a computer. The technique includes receiving messages individually corresponding to resources being monitored, displaying rows in a table, and generating bar graphs of the messages respectively corresponding to the resources in the rows. Each of the bar graphs displays a color coded scheme to visually distinguish severity of the messages in each of the rows for the resources. The bar graphs display the severity of the messages for one resource per the given row without requiring user intervention to view severities of the messages displayed by the color coded scheme, without requiring user intervention to view a total number of messages for the given row, while maintaining a same row height regardless of the total number of messages for the given row, and without changing a table size including a table height and a table width of the table.
