Publication number: 20240185140Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure use one or more processor(s) to receive a consumable preference and a daily score intake value associated with a user and to obtain a content data regarding consumable item including an amount of a first nutrient found in the consumable item. The processor(s) utilizes, in real-time, a nutrient prediction machine learning model to ingest the content data regarding the consumable item and predict an amount of a second nutrient in the consumable item based on the content data and a decision tree library of thousand nutrient decision trees. The processor(s) determines zero-scored consumable item based on the daily score intake value, the amount of the first nutrient, the amount of the second nutrient, and the consumable preference. The processor(s) instructs a computing device to utilize a graphical user interface element to identify the zero-scored consumable item on a screen of the computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2023Publication date: June 6, 2024Inventors: Gary Foster, Ute Gerwig, Laura Smith, Reka Daniel-Weiner, Michael Skarlinski, Judith Bünker, Jacquelyn Zaydel

Publication number: 20240173643Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for recovering at least one product from a fermentation broth. The invention relates to the use of a vacuum distillation vessel to recover products, such as ethanol, from a fermentation broth, where the fermentation broth comprises viable microbial biomass, and where the recovery of the product is completed in such a manner to ensure the viability of the microbial biomass. The invention provides for product recovery at an effective rate so as to prevent the accumulation of product in the fermentation broth. To ensure the viability of the microbial biomass, the invention is designed to reduce the amount of stress on the microbial biomass. By ensuring the viability of the microbial biomass, the microbial biomass may be recycled and reused in the fermentation process, which may result in an increased efficiency of the fermentation process.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2024Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Paul Alvin Sechrist, Nicholas Bourdakos, Robert John Conrado, Allan Haiming Gao, Jason Carl Bromley, Christophe Daniel Mihalcea, Michael Emerson Martin, Ignasi Palou-Rivera, Joseph Henry Tizard

Patent number: 11985124Abstract: Leveraging secure tokenization, such as a Non-Fungible Token (NFT), for purposes of multifactor and/or elevated user authentication. In this regard, an authentication NFT is generated based at least on a user's authentication credentials. Subsequently, the authentication NFT is verified/validated via a private distributed trust computing network and stored, in a deactivated state, on a distributed ledger. Once the user is confronted with an elevated and/or multifactored authentication process, the user may initiates use of the authentication NFT by checking-out the authentication NFT from the distributed ledger and moving the authentication NFT from the deactivated state to an activated state, in which the user credentials are accessible to the user for purposes of authentication.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Anna Kristen Pingel Berry, Shweta Ambulkar, Benjamin Daniel Hardman, Angela Ianni, Olga Kocharyan, Luqman Sharief, Michael Wm.

Patent number: 11973762Abstract: When a system tries to access a network (e.g., another system, an application, data, or the like) at least two-factor authentication may be used to validate the system. At least one authentication factor may include utilizing authentication credentials of the entity or system accessing the network. At least a second authentication factor may include using an environment hash of the system, which is a representation of the configuration (e.g., hardware, software, or the like) on the system trying to access the network. The environment hash may be compared to hash requirements (e.g., authorized environment hashes, unauthorized environment hashes, or the like) to aid in the validation. The system may only access the network when both the authentication credentials and the environment hashes meet requirements.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: George Albero, Elijah Clark, Scot Lincoln Daniels, Emanuel David Guller, Konata Stinson, Rick Wayne Sumrall, Jake Michael Yara
