  • Patent number: 11907907
    Abstract: A system and method for implementing a centralized innovation framework module are disclosed. A processor is operatively connected to one or more memories via a communication network. The processor creates a centralized web-based collaborative platform hub for collection of innovation ideas data from end users within an operation space and causes the centralized web-based collaborative platform hub to receive innovation ideas data from an end user related to development of an application. The processor also analyzes the received innovation ideas data establishes, based on analyzing, a connection between the centralized web-based collaborative platform hub and a development platform; migrates the received innovation ideas data onto the development platform; and creates a workflow on the development platform for tracking and managing development processes of the application.

  • Patent number: 11875360
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for providing an insights page. When data identifying a party of a call is received, a customer relationship management (CRM) application can be launched at a computing device without any further user input, and records that are potentially relevant to the call and that are to potentially be included as part of an insights page of the CRM application can be automatically determined. Some of the records are automatically determined by analyzing CRM information using artificial intelligence technologies. The records can then be ranked in a priority order according to relevance from most relevant to least relevant. The insights page can then be caused to be displayed at a user interface of the computing device without user input with at least some of the records displayed in the priority order as relevant records.

  • Patent number: 11861635
    Abstract: A facility for determining a housing index value for a subject geographic region for a subject period in time is described. For each home in a set of homes within the subject geographic region, the facility determines home attribute values; applies a first valuation model and second valuation for the subject geographic region to the home attributes to obtain estimated values of the home at the beginning and end of the subject period, respectively; and determines an appreciation rate for the home on the basis of the estimated values of the home at the beginning and end of the subject period. The facility combines the appreciation rates to obtain an aggregate appreciation rate for the subject period, and combines the aggregate appreciation rate for the period with a housing index value for a prior period to obtain the housing index value for the subject geographic region and subject period.

  • Patent number: 11823214
    Abstract: An online system receives a completed order of items fulfilled by a picker and a transaction log of the completed order from a retailer where the completed order was fulfilled. The online system compares the completed order of items to the transaction log of the completed order to identify one or more unmatched items. The online system generates, at an auditor client device, a user interface that shows the unmatched items and an option to mark each unmatched item as a fraud instance. The online system receives an indication of a fraud instance for one of the unmatched items from an auditor via the user interface. The online system adds a value of the fraud instance to a fraud total of the picker. If the online system determines that the fraud total for the picker exceeds a threshold, the fraud module deactivates the picker's account.

  • Patent number: 11774255
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for producing tradeable environmental attributes such as carbon offsets from the physical movements of users. The solution incorporates the use of a modal shift optimization application executed on a user's device. The application locates alternative transport options, and monitors the user's physical movements as the user travels to the destination using one of the alternative transport options. A carbon offset system receives the user's trip data and calculates project greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the user's journey. The carbon offset system also calculates baseline GHG emissions for a baseline transport option (e.g. single-occupancy private vehicle trip), based at least in part on the baseline emissions factor and a discount factor. The carbon offset system extracts the GHG emissions savings by determining a difference between the baseline and project emissions, which can be validated and verified for the production of carbon offsets.
