Abstract: A processor coupled to memory is configured to receive an identification of a geographical location associated with a target specified by a user remote from a vehicle. A machine learning model is utilized to generate a representation of at least a portion of an environment surrounding the vehicle using sensor data from one or more sensors of the vehicle. At least a portion of a path to a target location corresponding to the received geographical location is calculated using the generated representation of the at least portion of the environment surrounding the vehicle. At least one command is provided to automatically navigate the vehicle based on the determined path and updated sensor data from at least a portion of the one or more sensors of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for managing a shift schedule, involving obtaining employee data for employees, a payroll constraint for a time period, and an employer requirement for the shift schedule, and collecting an employee availability schedule from each employee. The method further involves generating shift schedules based on the payroll constraint, employee data, employer requirement, and employee availability schedules, determining a payroll budget associated with each shift schedule, ranking the shift schedules based on the payroll budget to obtain a ranked list of shift schedules, and presenting the ranked list of shift schedules to an employer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing a payroll. The method steps include obtaining a compliance rule of a tax agency regarding the payroll, obtaining an update of a payroll parameter from a financial management application (FMA), analyzing the update of the payroll parameter based on the compliance rule of the tax agency to detect a schedule changing event, adjusting the payment schedule of the tax agency based on the schedule changing event to generate an adjusted payment schedule of the tax agency, submitting the adjusted payment schedule of the tax agency and an amount of the payment to the tax agency to a user for approval, accessing a payroll tax paying website of the tax agency, and making the payment to the tax agency using the payroll tax paying website in response to receiving the approval from the user.

Abstract: A method for managing financial accounts, comprising obtaining a data item, a first account, and a second account, generating a plurality of change requests comprising the data item, sending the one of the plurality of change requests to a first financial institution managing the first account, wherein the data item is used by the first financial institution to update the first financial account, sending one of the plurality of change requests to a second financial institution managing the second account, wherein the data item is used by the second financial institution to update the second financial account, receiving a plurality of notifications associated with a status of the first account and a status of the second account, and reporting the plurality of notifications.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method to interview a candidate.

Abstract: A method for upgrading from a stand-alone product to an integrated financial product, that includes generating a plurality of product accounts associated with a user of the stand-alone product, modifying, while using the stand-alone product, the plurality of product accounts with financial transaction data associated with the user, activating the integrated financial product after modifying the plurality of product accounts, and accessing the financial transaction data using a financial module of the integrated financial product, wherein functionality provided by the stand-alone product is distinct from functionality provided by the financial module.

Abstract: A system that facilitates using information about a financial transaction to augment information in a representation of a social network. During operation, the system receives parameters for a financial transaction involving a number of entities.
