  • Patent number: 11704671
    Abstract: A transformation-as-a-service apparatus, system and method are described, where the transformation converts financial messages from one format to another (such as SWIFT format to ISO 20022 format, etc), storing the original and transformed messages for future access by a token. The transformation service also includes a permissions and access control mechanism for allowing access to the financial messages based on requestor permissions when requested via the token.

  • Patent number: 11699021
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for reading contents from a document. The system includes a memory unit for storing a set of instructions, and a processing unit is coupled to the memory unit for processing the set of instruction. The set of instructions initiates with a step of rendering the document to retrieve the image of each page and retrieving the digital text and location of each word to create digital text blocks for each word. Running OCR on the images retrieved on rendering the document to an OCR location and creating OCR text blocks from the obtained OCR location of each word. Creating an empty array of text blocks, and adding the digital text blocks to the empty array. Adding one OCR text block to the corresponding empty array on confirming the location and performing the looping step on loop till the document is added with the OCR text block into each empty array.

  • Patent number: 11620065
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing tenant aware, variable length, deduplication of data stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium is described here. The method is performed at least in part by circuitry and the data comprises a plurality of data items. Each of the plurality of data items is associated with a particular tenant of a group of tenants that store data on the storage medium. In addition, a data deduplication data storage medium made up of one or more tenant storage areas and a deduplicated block database stored on the data deduplication data storage medium is described. The tenant storage areas comprise a plurality of data items, where each data item comprises a plurality of item blocks and each item block comprises a pointer to a storage location in a deduplicated block database.

  • Publication number: 20230055042
    Abstract: A system and method for deconstructing a document is described herein, where the method is an improvement over existing document deconstruction techniques. These improvements increase speed and accuracy by rapidly identifying the source in a document by splitting the document into a plurality of sections and performing a perceptual image hashing on each section. Then a hamming distance is used to compare the hash for each section with the hashes of known documents to identify the source who sent the document.

  • Patent number: 11501344
    Abstract: A system and method for deconstructing a document is described herein, where the method is an improvement over existing document deconstruction techniques. These improvements increase speed and accuracy by rapidly identifying the vendor in an invoice by splitting the invoice into three regions and performing a perceptual image hashing on each section. Then a hamming distance is used to compare the hash for each section with the hashes of known invoices to identify the vendor who sent the invoice.
