Patent number: 11391585Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for load balancing for map application route selection and output. A user may utilize a device application to map or route between two or more endpoints, such as geo-locations entered or detected by the device. During calculation of a travel route between the endpoints, real-time data, user preferences, and requesting entities may provide criteria data that may cause determination of a particular travel route, where the travel route may be longer than a most efficient route but within a pre-defined variable time or distance allotment and match the criteria data. Use of the route may accrue a form of compensation for the user. The user may view an application interface displaying the route, which may further include one or more executable processes to cause recalculation of the route. Recalculation of the route may require the user to provide credits or compensation.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2020Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventors: Michael Charles Todasco, Gautam Madaan, Timothy Resudek, Braden Christopher Ericson, Cheng Tian, Jiri Medlen

Patent number: 11392778Abstract: In a flow of computer actions, a computer system (110) receives a request involving a machine translation. In performing the translation (160, 238), or in using the translation in subsequent computer operations (242, 1110), the computer system takes into account known statistical relationships (310), obtained from previously accumulated click-through data (180), between a machine translation performed in a flow, the flow's portions preceding the translation, and success indicators pertaining to the flow's portion following the translation. The statistical relationships are derived by data mining of the click-through data. Further, normal actions can be suspended to use a random option to accumulate the click-through data and/or perform statistical AB testing. Other features are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventor: Hassan Sawaf

Patent number: 11386179Abstract: Systems and methods for provisioning applications include storing an application identifier in association with location information in a database that is accessible by a user device. The user device then detects that it is located at a location included in the location information. In response to detecting that it is located at the location, the user device determines an application that is included on the user device and that is identified by the application identifier that is associated with the first location. The user device then automatically provides the application for display to a user. In some embodiments, the application may be automatically provided by automatically launching the application on the user device, and that application may be automatically closed if the user device leaves the location or the application is not used for a predetermined amount of time.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2020Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: PAYPAL, INC.Inventor: Venkatesh Gnanasekaran
