Abstract: Various embodiments described herein relate to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media structured to perform server-to-device secure data exchange using a device access token. In an embodiment, a smart device receives, from a requestor entity provided to the smart device, an account data provisioning request for an account. Based on the account data provisioning request, an account identifier for the account is determined. In some arrangements, the account identifier comprises or is associated with a device access token. Based on the device access token, a data element associated with the account is determined. In some embodiments, the data element is accessible to the requestor entity only if it is not access-restricted based on the device access token. Based on the data element, an executable graphic rendering instruction is generated.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a customer a central location to manage permissions provided to third-parties and devices to access and use customer information maintained by a financial institution are described. The central location serves as a central portal where a customer of the financial institution can manage all access to account information and personal information stored at the financial institution. Accordingly, the customer does not need to log into each individual third-party system or customer device to manage previously provided access to the customer information or to provision new access to the customer information. A user additionally is able to have user data and third-party accounts of the user deleted from devices, applications, and third-party systems via a central portal.

Abstract: Embodiments are generally directed to techniques for query-based binarized point decisions, such as with a system that can provide end-to-end decision making support. Some embodiments are particularly directed to a system that makes point decisions, with traceable reasoning, for queries while factoring in a variety of influences. In many embodiments, the traceable reasoning may refer to the generation and collection of metadata associated with various aspects of the decision making process. For example, the metadata may include, or be used to create, a decision lineage and/or reasoning summary that is generated for each point decision. Some embodiments may ensure various influences do not derail the query from the overall objective. In several such embodiments, the point decisioner may confirm or deny that a decision was made with aspect to a certain objective.

Abstract: Disclosed is an example approach in which network and non-network features are used to train a predictive machine learning model that is implemented to predict financial crime and fraud. Graphical network features may be generated by applying financial entity risk vectors to a network model with representations of various types of networks. The network model may comprise transactional, non-social, and/or social networks, with edges corresponding to linkages that may be weighted according to various characteristics (such as frequency, amount, type, recency, etc.). The graphical network features may be fed to the predictive model to generate a likelihood and/or prediction with respect to a financial crime. A perceptible alert is generated on one or more computing devices if a financial crime is predicted or deemed sufficiently likely. The alert may identify a subset of the set of financial entities involved in the financial crime and present graphical representations of networks and linkages.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises a receiver (201) for receiving an image signal which comprises at least an encoded image and a target display reference. The target display reference is indicative of a dynamic range of a target display for which the encoded image is encoded. A dynamic range processor (203) generates an output image by applying a dynamic range transform to the encoded image in response to the target display reference. An output (205) then outputs an output image signal comprising the output image, e.g. to a suitable display. The dynamic range transform may furthermore be performed in response to a display dynamic range indication received from a display. The invention may be used to generate an improved High Dynamic Range (HDR) image from e.g. a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) image, or vice versa.
