Patent number: 12748988Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for providing a framework for analyzing graphs that exhibit non-homophilous behavior. Under the framework, a structural analysis and a feature-based analysis will be performed on a sequence of graphs. When performing the feature-based analysis, various features are extracted from each node in the sequence of graphs, and clusters of nodes are identified from each graph based on the features. A set of evolving prototypes is generated to represent evolving characteristics of the clusters of nodes, and a set of persistent prototypes is generated to represent persistent characteristics of the clusters of nodes. Information derived from the structural analysis of the graphs, the set of evolving prototypes, and the set of persistent prototypes are embedded within the nodes of the graphs. The embedded information is then used to classify the nodes.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2023Date of Patent: September 29, 2026Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventor: Yanfei Dong

Patent number: 12725087Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to machine learning-based techniques for segmenting entity populations. Embodiments include approximating distributions for outputs generated by a classification model for entities based on ground truth labels that indicate whether an event occurred with respect to the entities.

Automatic detection and remediation of contradictory natural language content in information systems
Patent number: 12645665Abstract: A system and method for creating a remediation plan with in-context learning (ICL) to a large language model (LLM) involves accessing pieces of content from a corpora and calculating similarity scores between selected content and the corpora. If the similarity score exceeds a set threshold, static metadata—such as authorship, file name, file size, last updated date, or source location—is retrieved. Dynamic metadata, including word count, sentence count, grammar correctness, number of citations, or layout classification, is also generated. Based on static and dynamic metadata, a remediation action is determined, which may involve merging content, prioritizing one piece over another, or ignoring certain content. A remediation prompt is then created and sent to the LLM to generate a preferred output. The process continues by accessing additional unprocessed content and repeating until a time limit expires, computational resources are consumed, or all content has been processed.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2025Date of Patent: June 2, 2026Assignee: Florida Power & Light CompanyInventors: Brien H. Muschett, Marcus J. Balk -

Patent number: 12579100Abstract: A KID's computer system is configured by PARENT-controlled software, giving each PARENT the power and responsibility to control the social media content being presented to their KID. The PARENT prescribes the criteria for action to be taken; and the PARENT prescribes the action to be taken by the KID's computer system. The PARENT-prescribed criteria comprises a list of BAAE-type states, e.g., emotional state. If one of these states is induced in the KID when they accessed the content from a Social Media Platform, then it triggers a PARENT-prescribed action. The list of possible PARENT-prescribed actions comprises at least the following: blocking the content, informing the KID, the PARENT, the Social Media Platform, School Authorities, Law Enforcement, Health Authorities of the KID's state, and archiving the event-data. The archived event-data is analyzed to discover harmful behavior patterns, e.g., lack of self-control, exhibited by the KID vis-à-vis social media content.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2024Date of Patent: March 17, 2026Assignee: Airedites, LLCInventor: Andrew L.
