Abstract: A system includes one or more memory devices storing instructions, and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to perform steps of a method for providing customer data access during a migration process. The system may initiate a transfer of customer data from a source data server to a system platform and transfer a subset of the customer data to a temporary data storage. The system may modify the temporary copy of customer data and generate an instruction to modify the permanent copy of customer data. In response to the completion of the transfer of customer data from the source data server to the system mainframe, the system may then transfer and execute the instruction to modify the permanent copy of customer data.

Abstract: Aspects described herein may provide detection of a physical characteristic of a credential, thereby allowing for authentication of the credential. According to some aspects, these and other benefits may be achieved by detecting the physical characteristic with the credential. An image of a credential may be received. An optical characteristic of a secure feature of the credential may be determined. An expected optical characteristic of the secure feature may be determined based on known properties of the secure feature. A determination as to whether the credential is authentic may be based on a comparison of the determined optical characteristic of the secure feature to the expected optical characteristic of the secure feature.

Abstract: An electronic audio file is received that comprises spontaneous speech responsive to a prompt in a non-native language of a speaker. Thereafter, the electronic audio file is parsed into a plurality of spoken words. The spoken words are then normalized to remove stop words and disfluencies. At least one trained content scoring model is then used to determine an absence of pre-defined key points associated with the prompt in the normalized spoken words. A list of the determined absent key points can be generated. This list can then be displayed/caused to be displayed in a graphical user interface along with feedback to improve content completeness. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: A system, process, and computer-readable medium for updating an application cache using a stream listening service is described. A stream listening service may monitor one or more data streams for content relating to a user. The stream listening service may forward the content along with time-to-live values to an application cache. A user may use an application to obtain information regarding the user's account, where the application obtains information from a data store and/or cached information from the application cache. The stream listening service, by forwarding current account information, obtained from listening to one or more streams, to the application cache, reduces traffic at the data store by providing current information from the data stream to the application cache.

Abstract: A system receives an image including a live facial image of the user and an identity document including a photograph of the user. Moreover, the system calculates a facial match score by comparing facial features in the live facial image to facial features in the photograph. The system recognizes data objects and characters in the identity document using optical character recognition (OCR) and computer vision, and then identifies, based on the recognized data objects and characters, a type of the identity document. Further, the system calculates a document validity score by comparing the recognized characters and data objects to character strings and data objects known to be present in the identified type of the identity document. Additionally, the system determines and outputs the user's identity verification status based on comparing the facial match score to a facial match threshold and comparing the document validity score to a document validity threshold.
