Abstract

In an approach to adjusting user permissions based on mental acuity, one or more computer processors determine whether an individual is within a threshold proximity to a monitored location. In response to determining that an individual is within a threshold proximity to the monitored location, the one or more computer processors identify a required mental acuity for the monitored location. The one or more computer processors determine a current mental acuity for the individual. The one or more computer processors compare the determined mental acuity for the individual with the required mental acuity for the monitored location.

Claims (13)

1 . A method for adjusting user permissions based on mental acuity, the method comprising:

determining, by one or more computer processors, whether an individual is within a threshold proximity to a monitored location;

in response to determining that an individual is within a threshold proximity to the monitored location, identifying, by the one or more computer processors, a required mental acuity for the monitored location;

determining, by the one or more computer processors, a baseline mental acuity for the individual based on previously received sensor data and biometric feedback that includes heartbeats per minute and pupil reflex latency;

determining, by the one or more computer processors, a current mental acuity for the individual;

comparing, by the one or more computer processors, the determined mental acuity for the individual with the required mental acuity for the monitored location, wherein comparing, by the one or more computer processors, the determined current mental acuity for the individual with the required mental acuity for the monitored location includes comparing the current mental acuity data of the individual to an established baseline mental acuity of the individual from historical data, comparing current mental acuity data of the individual to the required mental acuity level that is preset based on one or more performance requirements, and comparing current mental acuity data of the individual to the required mental acuity level that is based on regulations associated with the monitored location;

determining, by the one or more computer processors, whether the determined mental acuity of an individual at least meets the required mental acuity for the individual to access the monitored location based on the comparison of the determined mental acuity for the individual with the required mental acuity for the monitored location;

responsive to determining that the mental acuity of an individual at least meets the required mental acuity for the individual to access the monitored location, adjusting, by the one or more computer processors, one or more user access permissions associated with the individual to grant user access permissions;

determining, by the one or more computer processors, whether the determined mental acuity of an individual falls below the required mental acuity for the individual to access the monitored location based on the comparison of the determined mental acuity for the individual with the required mental acuity for the monitored location;

responsive to determining that the mental acuity of an individual falls below the required mental acuity for the individual to access the monitored location based on a heartbeat reduction of ten beats per minute and a pupil reflex latency of five milliseconds, adjusting, by the one or more computer processors, one or more user access permissions associated with the individual to limit one or more user access permissions;

creating, by the one or more computer processors, the established baseline mental acuity by applying a supervised learning classifier and a time-series model to the historical data associated with the individual;

determining, by the one or more computer processors, one or more data characteristics associated with an increased mental acuity, the established baseline mental acuity, and a decreased mental acuity for one or more types of historical data associated with the individual; and

comparing, by the one or more computer processors, the current mental acuity of the individual to the established baseline mental acuity of the individual by making one or more determinations associated with the increased mental acuity, the established baseline mental acuity, and the decreased mental acuity for the one or more types of historical data associated with the individual.
