  • Patent number: 11544783
    Abstract: A heuristic engine includes capabilities to collect an unstructured data set and a current business context to calculate a credit worthiness score. Providing a heuristic algorithm, executing within the engine, with the data set and the context may allow determination of predicted future contexts and recommend subsequent actions, such as assessing a credit risk of a customer transaction and reducing the risk of customer transactions by processing the available data. Such heuristic algorithms may learn from past data transactions and appropriate correlations with events and available data.

  • Patent number: 11544792
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, data is received indicative of a plurality of insurance claims. It may then be automatically determined that a first insurance claim is associated with a first type of insurance and that a second insurance claim is associated with a second type of insurance. The received data associated with the first insurance claim may be analyzed in accordance with first segmentation logic to determine a first segment classification appropriate for the first insurance claim. Similarly, the received data associated with the second insurance claim may be automatically analyzed in accordance with second segmentation logic to determine a second segment classification appropriate for the second insurance claim. Indications of the first and second segment classifications may then be transmitted (e.g., to a load balancing and assignment engine that automatically selects claim handlers for insurance claims).
