Abstract:

In a method and system for managing a social group, the method includes determining a group member behavior from a member position relative to the social group, and inferring a member state from the member behavior. Spatial, spatio-temporal, and biometric data may be used. A social group management system includes an inference engine that infers a member state from the behavior of a monitored member. Another social group management method includes characterizing a first monitored member of the social group as a first discrete element; characterizing at least a second monitored member of the social group as at least a second discrete element; and determining a characteristic displacement between the first monitored member and at least the second monitored member in accordance with a discrete element method.

International Classification:

A01K 29/00
A01K 11/00
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Systems and methods are discussed to monitor animal health and behavior. In some embodiments, a method may include reading an animal ID using a reader that reads the animal ID from a passive ear tag on the animal when the animal is within a monitoring area; storing a time stamp associated with the animal ID when the animal ID was read by the reader; determining a number of times the animal was within the monitoring area in a given period of time based on the time stamp and the animal ID; determining that the animal has likely has an illness based on the number of times the animal was within the monitoring area; and communicating the animal ID and an indication that the animal likely has an illness to a user device.
