Patent number: 11562227Abstract: An interactive troubleshooting assistant and method for troubleshooting a system in real time to repair (fix) one or more problems in a system is disclosed. The interactive troubleshooting assistant and method may include receiving multimodal inputs from sensors, wearable devices, a person, etc. that may be input into a feature extractor including attention layers and pre-processing units of a cloud computing system hosted by one or more servers, such as a private cloud system. A pre-processing unit converts the raw multimodal input into a structed form so that an attention layer can give weights to features provided by the pre-processing unit according to their importance. The weighted extracted features may be provided to an actions predictor. The actions predictor generates the most suitable action based on the weighted extracted features generated by the feature extractor based on the multimodal inputs.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2019Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Kumar Abhinav, Alpana Dubey, Sakshi Jain, Michael L.

Patent number: 11551204Abstract: A system supports symmetric release of cryptologically-locked asset transactions. A leading exchange party and a reciprocal exchange party establish, at least in part, a peer challenge in a pre-exchange proposal. The reciprocal party uses the peer challenge to lock a cryptologically-locked asset transaction. The solution to the peer challenge corresponds to an exchange key controlled by the leading exchange party. After establishment of the cryptologically-locked asset transaction, the leading party may request that exchange logic initiate release of the cryptologically-locked asset transaction. In response to the request, the exchange logic may execute a symmetric release of the exchange key and/or signature to the reciprocal exchange party and cryptologically-locked asset transaction (such that the asset is transferred to the leading exchange party).Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2019Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Janis Olekss, Fraser Edwards, Peter Jacobus Nicolaas de Rooij

Patent number: 11552935Abstract: A system includes circuitry for rewriting blockchains in a non-tamper-evident or tamper-evident operation using a key secret held in portions by multiple individually untrusted parties. The blockchains may include a series of blocks secured by integrity codes that may prevent non-tamper-evident rewrites by non-trusted parties that are not in possession of the key secret or individually-untrusted parties in possession of only a portion of the key secret. In some cases, multiple individually-untrusted parties may combine their portions into the key secret. As a group, the multiple individually-untrusted parties may perform non-tamper-evident operation with respect to at least one integrity code within the blockchain.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2020Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignees: Accenture Global Solutions Limited, GSC Secrypt, LLCInventors: Giuseppe Ateniese, Michael t.

Patent number: 11552950Abstract: A system supports asset transfers among blockchains of differing distributed ledger technologies using interop circuitry. The interop circuitry may receive asset permissions from origin and target participant circuitry. The asset permissions may support transfer of an asset from an origin blockchain to a target blockchain. The interop circuitry, acting on behalf of the origin and target participant circuitry, locks an asset on the origin blockchain. Then the interop circuitry creates the asset on the target blockchain. The locking of the asset on the origin blockchain may prevent a double-expend opportunity, where the asset can be redeemed on the origin blockchain and on the target blockchain.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2019Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: David Treat, Giuseppe Giordano, Luca Schiatti, Aspyn Cole Palatnick, Zixuan Zhang

Patent number: 11531328Abstract: In some implementations, a control system may obtain historical data associated with usage of a distillation column during a historical time period. The control system may configure a prediction model to monitor the distillation column for a hazardous condition. The prediction model may be trained based on training data that is associated with occurrences of the hazardous condition. The control system may monitor, using the prediction model, the distillation column to determine a probability that the distillation column experiences the hazardous condition within a threshold time period. The prediction model may be configured to determine the probability based on measurements from a set of sensors of the distillation column. The control system may perform, based on the probability satisfying a probability threshold, an action associated with the distillation column to reduce a likelihood that the distillation column experiences the hazardous condition within the threshold time period.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2021Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Jurgen Albert Weichenberger, Mohamad Mehdi Nasr-Azadani, Zaid Tashman, Matin Momeni, Teresa Sheausan Tung

Patent number: 11531948Abstract: The disclosed system and method provide a way to create, update, and execute dynamic goal plans. Updating a dynamic goal plan may be based on the initial sequence of actions of the goal plan as well as the corresponding states of the actions. By using a sequence to sequence model, a goal plan can still be processed when the length of the input (initial sequence of actions) differs from the length of the output (updated sequence of actions). A sequence to sequence model can determine the interdependencies between actions that can contribute to the optimal order in which actions can efficiently be performed. A single layer neural network or clustering can be used to approximate the state of a goal plan that may be capable infinite states. This approximation improves accuracy in capturing the state of a goal plan, thereby improving accuracy in predicting the future state of a system, which can help with planning (e.g., gathering resources in advance).Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2020Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Alpana Dubey, Kumar Abhinav, Sakshi Jain, Veenu Arora
