  • Patent number: 11797657
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes identifying behavioral characteristics of a user related to operation of a computing device prior to an online account session. The method includes comparing the behavioral characteristics to a behavioral profile previously developed based on prior behavioral characteristics of the user, and determining an appropriate mark difficulty level based on a variation between the behavioral characteristics and the behavioral profile. The method includes selecting, from a plurality of prompts stored in a prompt database, a prompt that comprises instructions to draw a mark having the appropriate mark difficulty level, where other prompts of the plurality of prompts comprise instructions to draw other marks different from the mark, and providing the prompt to the user as part of a logon process for the online account session.

  • Patent number: 11797796
    Abstract: A multi-level distribution and tracking method is described. Processing equipment processes multi-level distribution items, the multi-level distribution items being associated with first, second, and third level entities. The multi-level distribution items include a computer readable code thereon. The processing equipment captures an image of the multi-level distribution item, reads a computer readable code associated with the first level entity, sender information for the second level entity, and destination address information for the third level entity. The distribution system delivers the item to the destination address for the third level entity. The processing equipment generates scan information based on the processing of the multi-level distribution item, and can send the tracking information to the first level entity.

  • Patent number: 11797844
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to provide neural embeddings of transaction data. A network graph of transaction data based on a plurality of transactions may be received. The network graph of transaction data may define relationships between the transactions, each transaction associated with at least a merchant and an account. A neural network may be trained based on training data comprising a plurality of positive entity pairs and a plurality of negative entity pairs. An embedding function may then encode transaction data for a first new transaction. An embeddings layer of the neural network may determine a vector for the first new transaction based on the encoded transaction data for the first new transaction. A similarity between the vectors for the transactions may be determined. The first new transaction may be determined to be related to the second transaction based on the similarity.

  • Patent number: 11795808
    Abstract: A method comprises operating an electric submersible pump (ESP) motor downhole in a well. The ESP motor is electrically connected to a variable speed drive (VSD) proximate to the well. The operating comprises measuring a revolution rate and a motor current of the ESP motor for a first period of time and performing a first adjustment of a voltage output of the VSD. The method comprises measuring, after the first adjustment, the revolution rate and the motor current of the ESP motor for a second period of time determining a difference between the motor current measured for the first period of time and the motor current measured for the second period of time; and performing a second adjustment of the voltage output of the VSD based on a change in the revolution rate and the motor current between the first period of time and the second period of time.
