  • Patent number: 11847658
    Abstract: A system for crowdsourcing annotations for transactions includes a crowdsourcing annotation database and a processor. The database stores crowdsourced annotations associated with merchants. The crowdsourced annotations are shared among, and contributed by, users of a community. The processor receives transaction data for a transaction by a user with a merchant. Relevant crowdsourced annotations associated with the merchant are retrieved from the database and sent to the user to enable to the user to annotate the transaction. The user provides an annotation for the transaction. The system dynamically updates the database based on the annotation provided by the user.

  • Patent number: 11849056
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a social media platform profile identification and social discovery feature. Disclosed social media networks enable introduction of users that may not otherwise know one another based on commonality between those users. Social media profiles are identified by digital objects instead of or in addition to more traditional indexing methods such as real names or screen names. Social discovery on a social network is performed via matching to similar behavior profiles in activity monitored by a block explorer. Machine learning models categorize behavior patterns observed by the block explorer into a machine recognized glossary. Social networks further recommend actions by users based on the monitored online behaviors of social connections.

  • Patent number: 11844695
    Abstract: An endovascular medical assembly and method for restoring chordal support to a leaflet of a heart valve by implanting artificial chordae tendinea in the heart. A chord is inserted into the heart endovascularly with a leaflet grasper which pierces the leaflet and implants the chord through the leaflet. An anchor assembly is implanted into an intracardiac wall and has anchor lines extending therefrom. The chord and an anchor line are assembled by a line gathering member and the tension of the chord is adjusted and secured. The chord is, thus, secured to the anchor assembly to support the leaflet.

  • Patent number: 11847419
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for recognizing a human emotion in a message. An embodiment operates by receiving a message from a user. The embodiment labels each word of the message with a part of speech (POS) thereby creating a POS set. The embodiment determines an incongruity score for a combination of words in the POS set using a knowledgebase. The embodiment determines a preliminary emotion detection score for an emotion for the message based on the POS set. Finally, the embodiment calculates a final emotion detection score for the emotion for the message based on the preliminary emotion detection score and the incongruity score.
