  • Patent number: 11893033
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described in which unstructured computer text is analyzed for generation of an enforcement action database. A computing device receives a digital document comprising a corpus of unstructured text and converts each sentence into tokens. The computing device identifies entities in the tokens and classifies each sentence as relevant or not relevant to an enforcement action. For each relevant sentence, the computing device generates a record in a first data structure and generates a record in a second data structure. The computing device maps the records in the first data structure to the records in the second data structure based upon an enforcement attribute to generate a third data structure. The computing device aggregates the records in the third data structure based upon a name of the entity and a type of the entity in the sentence to determine an aggregated first enforcement attribute for each entity.

  • Patent number: 11895015
    Abstract: A packet to be forwarded over a computer network to a destination is received. A group of multiple network paths is available to forward to the packet to the destination. One or more path selection factors are determined to be used to identify a specific network load balancing algorithm to select a specific network path from the group of multiple network paths. The one or more path selection factors include at least one path selection factor determined based at least in part on a dynamic state of the computer network or a network node in the computer network. In response to selecting, by the specific network load balancing algorithm, the specific network path from among the group of multiple network paths, the packet is forwarded over the specific network path.

  • Patent number: 11880402
    Abstract: A system for detecting a conflict of interest between entities includes a server and a database. The server selects a category to be evaluated for detecting whether or not two entities have a conflict of interest. A tree structure is created including the category and child and descendent categories of the category. The category and the child and descendent categories are hierarchically arranged as nodes of the tree structure. For the two entities, a conflict potential value is iteratively computed for each node based upon a previous conflict potential value of that node, previous conflict potential values of neighbouring nodes and distances between that node and neighbouring nodes. A conflict index value is computed for each node based upon the conflict potential value for that node for each entity. A conflict of interest between the entities is detected if the conflict index value of a node matches a predefined criteria.
