Cognitive platform and method for energy management for enterprises
First Claim
1. A method for processing information for resource management, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving data related to at least one resource from a plurality of data sources;
(b) performing at least one learning operation, via a cognitive decision maker, to improve resource optimization using a cognitive or machine learning process that assesses the effect of parameter variation in reaching a predetermined goal and maintains feedback information, wherein said at least one learning operation uses a priori and derived knoweledge using plurality of processes, wherein the said plurality of processes extracts one or more features from the data based on said a priori and derived knowledge and maps one or more features using a classification system employing at least one ordering selected from a group of rank, score and weights;
(c) providing at least one command or processed information to any one of;
an equipment, an external application or a storage element, based on parameters to best reach said predetermined goal and maintain feedback information.

Abstract
This invention is a platform and method for using cognition for managing enterprise energy needs. Cognitive platform allows for dynamic management of energy consumption, demand and baseline calculations by use of a cognitive platform and cognitive device. Employees as well as internal and external stakeholders can set performance indicators and monitor the parameters against the energy performance indicators. Based on the initial knowledge, the system identifies improvements in order to reach the energy key performance indicators. Depending on the feedback, the system learns and improves the accuracy of the predictions and suits them to a given industry or given enterprise scenario. Enterprise-wide energy and/or environmental management covers policies, planning, key performance indicators, goals, targets, works flows, user management, asset mapping, input-output energy flows, conservation options, performance management, analytics. The system and method allow for monitoring and verification by internal and/or external stakeholders.

14. At least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoded with processing instructions performed by at least one processor, said at least one computer readable storage medium and at least one processor comprising an information processing system for resource management, said system comprises:
-
(a) a module for receiving data related to at least one resource from plurality of data sources; (b) a module for performing at least one learning operation, via a cognitive decision maker, to improve resource optimization using cognition or machine learning wherein the said at least one learning operation uses a priori and derived knowledge using plurality of processes, wherein said plurality of processes extracts one or more features from the data based on said a priori and derived knowledge and maps one or more features using a classification system employing at least one ordering selected from a group of rank, score and weights; (c) a module for providing processed information or at least one command to any one of an equipment, external application or storage of any type. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
