Patents by Inventor Gary Shiffman

Gary Shiffman has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240004938
    Abstract: In some implementations, systems and methods that are capable of customizing negative media searches using domain-specific search indexes are described. Data indicating a search query associated with a negative media search for an entity and a corpus of documents to be searched are obtained. Content from a particular collection of documents from among the corpus of documents is obtained and processed. Multiple scores for the entity are computed based on processing the content obtained from the collection of documents. The multiple scores are aggregated to compute a priority indicator that represents a likelihood that the collection of documents includes content that is descriptive of derogatory information.

  • Patent number: 11836739
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for applying machine learning techniques to dynamically identify potentially anomalous activity of entities. In some implementations, peer group data is obtained. The peer group data indicates multiple entities classified as belonging to a particular peer group, and a set of attributes associated with the multiple entities. Transaction data for the multiple entities is obtained from one or more data sources. One or more transaction models are selected. The transaction models that are each trained to apply a particular set of evidence factors corresponding to the set of attributes associated with the multiple entities, and identify transaction patterns representing potentially anomalous activity. The transaction data is processed using the one or more transaction models to identify potentially anomalous activity within the transaction data for the multiple entities. A prioritization indicator is computed for each entity included in the multiple entities.

  • Publication number: 20220005042
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for orchestrating iterative updates to machine learning models (e.g., transaction models) deployed to multiple end-user devices. In some implementations, output data generated by a first transaction model deployed at a first end-user device is obtained. The first transaction model is trained to apply a set of evidence factors to identify potentially anomalous activity associated with a first target entity. An adjustment for a second transaction model deployed at a second end-user device is determined. The second transaction model is trained to apply the set of evidence factors to identify potentially anomalous activity associated with a second target entity determined to be similar to the first target entity. A model update for the second transaction model is generated. The model update specifies a change to the second transaction model. The model update is provided for output to the second end-user device.
