  • Patent number: 12094001
    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a resource allocation analysis system implemented via a back-end application computer server. A resource data store may contain electronic records associated with a set of resource types, each electronic record including an electronic record identifier and resource parameter. The back-end application computer server may receive, from the resource data store, information about a set of resource types to be analyzed, including the associated resource parameters. The computer server may then execute a differential evolutionary algorithm to optimize the set of resource types based on at least one non-linear constraint and generate resource analysis results. The back-end application computer server may, according to some embodiments, perform a resampling process that uses non-parameterized historical data, regression on at least one resource type, and moment matching.

  • Patent number: 12079866
    Abstract: A system includes an intermediate mortgage integration platform as a service (MiPaas). Specifically, an MiPaas layer may facilitate integration between a loan origination system (LOS) and supporting services. The MiPaas layer may provide integration flexibility by enabling integration of the supporting services with each other and with different LOSs. Indeed, a number of MiPaas integration formats (e.g. REST API, OpenAPI, GRPC, GraphQL, Industry Standard interface, etc. may be provided to facilitate ease of integration between the LOS and the supporting services. Further, the MiPaas may provide processing efficiencies by adapting workflows based upon particular retrieved data. In this manner, efficient processing may be performed in an intermediate data processing layer, resulting in more efficient turnaround times and reduced processing requirements at traditionally over-burdened systems.

  • Patent number: 12073407
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for quickly and efficiently providing individual-level scores that are serve as more-accurate predictions of a target event. These predictions are made using a model that factors specific variables based on transaction attributes gathered from transaction data for the individual, which may be exclusive to certain entities. These individual-level scores can be updated and periodically uploaded to an entity (e.g., a reporting agency) that can utilize existing infrastructure to quickly provide these scores to any requesters.

  • Patent number: 12067545
    Abstract: A real-time electronic bill presentment and payment system of a bill presentment and payment system (BPPS) provider is exposed to at least one of a business financial institution and an accounting software provider via an API. The BPP provider facilitates the institution or software provider providing a real-time electronic bill presentment and payment mobile application to a business. The BPPS obtains, via the API, from the institution or software provider, registration information relevant to the business. The real-time system populates a biller directory database with the registration information. No action, other than the facilitating, is required by the BPPS provider for the institution or software provider to obtain the registration information. In some instances, provision is made for loss of connectivity between the institution or software provider and the business and/or for alerts to the business.
