Abstract
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer-usable program product for generating unique cohort groups using multimodal sensory device. Multimodal sensory data is received from a set of multimodal sensors in a public environment. The set of multimodal sensors are associated with a network. The multimodal sensory data is received from the set of multimodal sensors over the network. The multimodal sensory data is processed to generate a plurality of attributes to form cohort attributes. A plurality of unique cohort groups is generated using the cohort attributes and the multimodal sensory data. Each member of the cohort group shares at least one common attribute.
