Benefits of technology

The patent is about a system and method for analyzing data from multiple sources to create a better understanding of patterns and potential incidents related to specific groups of people. The data is aggregated and mapped to a common cohort, and can be used to identify potential risks and create visual cues to help make the analysis easier. The technical effect is a more effective way to analyze data from multiple sources to create a better understanding of patterns and potential incidents related to specific groups of people.

Problems solved by technology

Early detection of events can be challenging, especially when the event occurs in a public venue and crowds are involved.

Abstract

A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a crowdsourcing data analysis operation. More specifically, the crowdsourcing data analysis operation receives data from a plurality of crowd sourced devices, aggregates the data received from the plurality of crowd sourced devices and maps the data received from the plurality of crowd sourced devices to a cohort (i.e., a group of individuals used in a study who have something in common). In certain embodiments, the crowdsourcing data analysis operation analyzes the data received from the plurality of crowd sourced devices to provide a deterministic analysis to infer a likelihood of potential incidents related to a group of individuals at any given time. Additionally in certain embodiments, the mapping of the data received from the plurality of crowd sourced devices includes binding the data to a physical or logical location.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to information handling systems. More specifically, embodiments of the invention relate to crowd sourcing of device sensor data for real time response.[0003]Description of the Related Art[0004]Early detection of events can be challenging, especially when the event occurs in a public venue and crowds are involved. It can be especially desirable to detect negative events in such a situation. Early detection of negative events, or identifying the precursors for such events can help in preventing the occurrence of the negative event. Additionally, should such an event occur, early detection of the event can significantly reduce any negative impacts of the events and aid in a prompt response to the event. For example, with a performance such as a music concert in a large venue, early detection of a crowd moving towards exits of the venue at an unexpected time can provide an indication of panic.
