The method includes receiving data associated with a family origin and identifying a set of characteristics from the data, which are associated with an individual within a family tree. The method further includes creating an object pattern from the set of characteristics, to define a scoring model, and providing a recommendation using an electronic device to members of a family based on the created object patterns. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for making individualized recommendations, comprising: receiving, by one or more processors, a plurality of genetic and hereditary data associated with a family origin; identifying, by one or more processors, a set of characteristics associated with an individual, from the plurality of genetic and hereditary data, in a tree; based on the set of characteristics associated with the individual, creating, by one or more processors, an object pattern used to define a scoring model; and providing, by one or more processors, a recommendation to one or more members of a family, using an electronic device, wherein the recommendation is based on the individual and the object patterns associated with the set of characteristics. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving, by one or more processors, a plurality of reference data, wherein the plurality of reference data comprises geo-location data, time of day data, and weather data; and associating, by one or more processors, the plurality of reference data with the received plurality of genetic and hereditary data. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of genetic and hereditary data associated with a family origin is collected from at least two different input modes, and wherein the input modes comprise at least one of: a mobile device, a wearable device, a computing device, a tablet, and a smart textile. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the set of characteristics comprise: physical characteristics of an individual changed over time, social networks of the individual, friend networks of the individual, responses to events, family intellectual capital, physiological data obtained via wearable devices or smart textiles, financial history, medical history, and personal preferences of the individual changing over time. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein providing a recommendation to one or more members of a family, further comprises at least one of: providing the recommendation, using voice playback software in a simulated voice of an individual family member; and providing the recommendation, using video playback software, which provides an image of the individual family member. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein a set of characteristics from the plurality of genetic and hereditary data comprises individual preferences for each family member. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein a recommendation comprises at least one of: precautions to be taken with diet based on hereditary predicative analysis; preventative tests based on personal data or lifestyle data; a set of preferences of an individual family member; medical direction associated with a medical history of a family member; dietary restrictions; travel recommendations based on location data; physical strengths; and physical weaknesses. ### Claim 8 A computer program product for making individualized recommendations, comprising: a computer readable storage medium and program instructions stored on the computer readable storage medium, the program instructions comprising: program instructions to receive a plurality of genetic and hereditary data associated with a family origin; program instructions to identify a set of characteristics associated with an individual, from the plurality of genetic and hereditary data, in a tree; program instructions to, based on the set of characteristics associated with the individual, create an object pattern used to define a scoring model; and program instructions to provide a recommendation to one or more members of a family, using an electronic device, wherein the recommendation is based on the individual and the object patterns associated with the set of characteristics. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, further comprising: program instructions to receive a plurality of reference data, wherein the plurality of reference data comprises geo-location data, time of day data, and weather data; and program instructions to associate the plurality of reference data with the received plurality of genetic and hereditary data. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the plurality of genetic and hereditary data associated with a family origin is collected from at least two different input modes, and wherein the input modes comprise at least one of: a mobile device, a wearable device, a computing device, a tablet, and a smart textile. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the set of characteristics comprise: physical characteristics of an individual changed over time, social networks of the individual, friend networks of the individual, responses to events, family intellectual capital, physiological data obtained via wearable devices or smart textiles, financial history, medical history, and personal preferences of the individual changing over time. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, wherein the program instructions to provide a recommendation to one or more members of a family, further comprise at least one of: program instructions to provide the recommendation using voice playback software in a simulated voice of an individual family member; and program instructions to provide the recommendation using video playback software, which provides an image of the individual family member. ### Claim 13 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, wherein a set of characteristics from the plurality of genetic and hereditary data comprise individual preferences for each family member. ### Claim 14 (depends on 8) The computer program product of claim 8, wherein a recommendation comprises at least one of: precautions to be taken with diet based on hereditary predicative analysis; preventative tests based on personal data or lifestyle data; a set of preferences of an individual family member; medical direction associated with a medical history of a family member; dietary restrictions; travel recommendations based on location data; physical strengths; and physical weaknesses. ### Claim 15 A computer system for making individualized recommendations, comprising: one or more computer processors; one or more computer readable storage media; program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising: program instructions to receive a plurality of genetic and hereditary data associated with a family origin; program instructions to identify a set of characteristics associated with an individual, from the plurality of genetic and hereditary data, in a tree; program instructions to, based on the set of characteristics associated with the individual, create an object pattern used to define a scoring model; and program instructions to provide a recommendation to one or more members of a family, using an electronic device, wherein the recommendation is based on the individual and the object patterns associated with the set of characteristics. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The computer system of claim 15, further comprising: program instructions to receive a plurality of reference data, wherein the plurality of reference data comprises geo-location data, time of day data, and weather data;
