  • Patent number: 11972278
    Abstract: Systems and techniques that facilitate computing touchpoint journey recommendations are provided. In various embodiments, an input component can receive a computing context of a client and a computing profile of a client. In various instances, the client can be engaged in a computing touchpoint journey. In various embodiments, a prediction component can predict, via a first machine learning classifier, a negative event likely to occur on the computing touchpoint journey. In various cases, the first machine learning classifier can receive as input the computing context and the computing profile and can generate as output the predicted negative event. In various embodiments, a decision component can recommend in real-time, via a second machine learning classifier, a computing touchpoint to which to transfer the client.

  • Patent number: 11704363
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, devices, and the like for generating highly scalable temporal graph databases. In one embodiment, a novel architecture is presented that enables the identification of mutation or changes in graphs. For the identification a combination of graph-based modeling and journal entry is used. Events occurring are consumed and changes are ingested, transformed for use by a graph simulation system. The changes are journaled using a vertex centric temporal journaling schema.

  • Publication number: 20130262213
    Abstract: A system including a memory storing user account information, wherein the information comprises funding sources including multiple non-cash, non-credit based funding options; and one or more processors for communicating the multiple non-cash, non-credit based funding options on a merchant site; receiving a selection of a first option of the multiple non-cash, non-credit based funding options made by a user from the merchant site; and processing a payment using the selected first option.

  • Publication number: 20080306823
    Abstract: An electronic publication advertising system including establishing sponsorship standards for reviewing advertisements for inclusion in an electronic publication. At least one advertisement is reviewed to determine whether the at least one advertisement complies with the sponsorship standards. The electronic publication is reviewed to determine a placement location of the at least one advertisement. The electronic publication is distributed with the at least one advertisement in the placement location. The electronic publication is reviewed by a person affiliated with the use of the distributed electronic publication to determine if the at least one advertisement meets the sponsorship standards.

  • Patent number: 6580470
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes means for inputting an interlaced video signal comprising signals representative of successive fields in image data produced by scanning successive image frames. Fields of image data that have been derived from single frames of the scanned image frames are determined, and signals produced representative of each of the image frames. A DMD for each color channel is addressed with signals representative of the frames.
