Patent number: 12762573Abstract: In one aspect the invention provides a computer readable medium bearing computer readable digital attribute certificate invalidation instructions for a member entity programmable device. These instructions facilitate receipt and presentation of a certification request and evidence information to a member entity, then solicit and transmit a pledge from the receiving member entity to receive an indication determining if the receiving member entity has been identified as a contracted member. If the receiving member entity is identified as a contracted member an assessment report is solicited and transmitted from the member entity. Assessment reports prepared by a number of contracted members are then received and presented to solicit and transmit a certification vote from the receiving member entity. This certification vote is used to determine if an attribute certification is to be issued and stored on a block chain database in response to the received certification request and evidence information.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2022Date of Patent: October 13, 2026Assignee: Map My Skills LimitedInventor: Reza Yaghoubi

Patent number: 12762576Abstract: Systems and methods for generating actionable regulatory insights for predictive analytics are disclosed. A method comprises receiving, by an artificial intelligence (AI) model, a regulatory query from a client device. A determination is made whether the query requires new data retrieval or if existing data can answer the query. When the query requires new data retrieval, a Web search is activated, which includes prompting an external large language model (LLM) to provide a regulatory document that answers the regulatory query. The regulatory document is retrieved in answer to the regulatory query. The answer to the query is transmitted to the client computing device. The generated answer, regulatory content, and the regulatory documents are provided in a feedback loop to the AI model, to improve training data. The client computing device is provided an actionable regulatory insight, including a recommended workflow of tasks based on the recommendation regarding the regulatory content.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2024Date of Patent: October 13, 2026Assignee: RegASK Pte.

Patent number: 12705564Abstract: A control circuit obtains a first set of rules that define a conveyability range for containers as a function of conveyability constraints pertaining to an intermediary distribution facility. The control circuit also accesses conveyability constraint information for the intermediary distribution facility and generates a conveyability range for that facility by evaluating the constraint information against the first set of rules. The control circuit obtains a second set of rules that define an objective function that uses the conveyability range as a constraint to determine an optimal container pack size for the given item. (By one approach these teachings will also accommodate using at least two additional constraints, such as a so-called days-of-supply (DOS) constraint and a so-called pack-and-a-half constraint.) The control circuit then generates an optimal container pack size for the given item by evaluating the objective function against the conveyability range (and other selected constraints).Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2023Date of Patent: August 11, 2026Assignee: WALMART APOLLO, LLCInventors: Pallav S.
