Patent number: 12254454Abstract: Aspects provided may allow for a user to block charges from an entity without having to contact the entity. After detecting that the user has enrolled in a trial or subscription of an entity offering, the user may be provided with the option to block charges from the entity. Using incoming data, charges from the blocked entity may be identified and prevented from being applied to the user. Further aspects may provide for more discrete charge blocking, such as blocking charges for one activity while allowing other charges for different activities from the same entity to go through, and training an identification model that isolates the entity identifier from the incoming data and matches the entity identifier to known entities.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2022Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Erik Virbitsky, Keith A. Kates, Marisa Lee

Patent number: 12254072Abstract: Helper neural network can play a role in augmenting authentication services that are based on neural network architectures. For example, helper networks are configured to operate as a gateway on identification information used to identify users, enroll users, and/or construct authentication models (e.g., embedding and/or prediction networks). Assuming, that both good and bad identification information samples are taken as part of identification information capture, the helper networks operate to filter out bad identification information prior to training, which prevents, for example, identification information that is valid but poorly captured from impacting identification, training, and/or prediction using various neural networks. Additionally, helper networks can also identify and prevent presentation attacks or submission of spoofed identification information as part of processing and/or validation.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2023Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Private Identity LLCInventor: Scott Edward Streit

Patent number: 12255943Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide a set of tools that help event organizers better prepare for important events by facilitating features of rehearsal sessions. In some configurations, a system can create a rehearsal session in the process of setting up a meeting. Thus, if a meeting organizer is setting up a company all-hands meeting, the tools provide options that allow event organizers to setup multiple rehearsal sessions effortlessly in the event scheduling flow. The tools enable a system to perform tests that simulate event attendees. This allows an organizer to test specific user activity involving each users' experience in joining a meeting or performing common attendee behaviors like a virtual hand raise or a reaction. The system also provides intelligent technical checks that automatically test each presenter's device settings and displays real-time telemetry data to effectively communicate any performance issues to a meeting organizer.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2022Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Microsoft Licensing Technology, LLCInventors: Yichen Jia, Siunie Aquawati Sutjahjo
