Patent number: 11343375Abstract: Systems and methods for using machine-learning techniques for labeling incoming calls with categories relating to a risk level. A model is generated using call log data. The call log data is augmented using information from additional data sources to generate features for the model. The model may then be used to categorize additional incoming calls. The model may be used in real-time to categorize incoming calls, or categorization results may be stored for a plurality of calling numbers. Various embodiments provide various technical advantages by virtue of how the components of the system are deployed between an endpoint communication device, a telephony provider system, and possibly other systems.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2020Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Assignee: TRANSACTION NETWORK SERVICES, INC.Inventors: Sean J. Kent, Ken Cartwright, Amit Singla, Srikanth Mohan, Paul Florack

Publication number: 20130110658Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for processing payment transactions are provided. In some embodiments, payment account information is stored in a mobile wallet by a configuration portal server, and payment tokens are transmitted to a mobile device. A payment token may be submitted by the mobile device to a merchant point-of-sale device as part of a transaction. The payment token may be transmitted to a mobile wallet registry system, which may use the payment token to obtain the payment account information or otherwise complete the transaction. In some embodiments, more than one payment account may be stored in a mobile wallet, and more than one payment account may be associated with a given payment token.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2012Publication date: May 2, 2013Applicant: TRANSACTION NETWORK SERVICES, INC.Inventors: Daniel J.

Patent number: 7773533Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems relating to the control and application of policies for routing data over a computer network, such as the Internet. Some implementations of the invention facilitate the configuration, deployment and/or maintenance of network routing policies. Some implementations of the invention are particularly useful for controlling the routing of data among autonomous systems or organizations. Certain implementations allow for dynamic modification of routing policy based on such factors as current Internet performance, load sharing, user-defined parameters, and time of day. In one embodiment, the present invention provides methods, apparatuses and systems implementing enhanced network path testing methodologies that enhance the efficiency of processes associated with testing of a network path, while reducing the perceived intrusiveness of test packets associated with such metrics tests.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2007Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Transaction Network Services, Inc.Inventor: Robert James Bays
