  • Patent number: 11232111
    Abstract: An automated predictive analytics system disclosed herein provides a novel technique for industry classification. In one implementation, the analytic system provides a method of matching company names, the method including generating a provider-side company dataset, for each record in a client's company records, identify a list of match candidates from the provider-side company dataset that has overlapping company signature fragments, for each client-side company, compute match scores against the list of provider-side match candidates on each signature fragment and form an overall match score, for each client-side company, use the match scores to rank candidates and keep a predetermined number of top predetermined matches, and display the predetermined number of top predetermined matches using a user interface.

  • Patent number: 11232300
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically verifying optical character recognition (OCR) detected text of a native electronic document having an image layer comprising a matrix of pixels and a text layer comprising a sequence of characters. The method includes determining a location of OCR-detected text in the text layer of the native electronic document based on a pixel-based coordinate location of the OCR-detected text in the image layer of the native electronic document. The method also includes applying the location of the OCR-detected text to the text layer of the native electronic document to detect text in the text layer corresponding to the OCR-detected text. The method also includes rendering only the detected text in the text layer as an output when the OCR-detected text does not match the detected text in the text layer, to improve accuracy of the output text.

  • Patent number: 11233804
    Abstract: A compromise detection system protects data centers (DCs) or other providers in the cloud. The compromise detection system can detect compromised virtual machines (VMs) through changes in network traffic characteristics while avoiding expensive data collection and preserving privacy. The compromise detection system obtains and uses periodically-obtained flow pattern summaries to detect compromised VMs. Agent-based detection on predetermined and compromised VMs can expose (using supervised learning) the network behavior of compromised VMs and then apply the learned model to all VMs in the DC. The compromise detection system can run continuously, protect the privacy of cloud customers, comply with Europe's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and avoid various techniques that both erode privacy and degrade VM performance.

  • Patent number: 11232295
    Abstract: A system receives a digital representation of a biometric for a person, uses the digital representation of the biometric to determine and/or otherwise retrieve identity information associated with the person, and uses the identity information to perform one or more actions related to the person's presence in one or more areas. For example, the system may estimate a path for the person and signal an agent electronic device based on the path. In another example, the system may determine a presence of a person within the area and/or transmit information to an agent electronic device regarding the determined presence. In still another example, the system may receive a request to communicate with the person and forward the communication to the person using the identity information.
