  • Patent number: 12041086
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to detecting impersonation in email body content using machine learning. Based on email data received from user accounts, a computing platform may generate user identification models that are each specific to one of the user accounts. The computing platform may intercept a message from a first user account to a second user account and may apply a user identification model, specific to the first user account, to the message, so as to calculate feature vectors for the message. The computing platform then may apply impersonation algorithms to the feature vectors and may determine that the message is impersonated. Based on results of the impersonation algorithms, the computing platform may modify delivery of the message.

  • Patent number: 11941540
    Abstract: A system and method of creating electronic characters in one or more electronic formats, selectively customizing the characters, and presenting them via electronic channels in response to satisfaction of one or more programmable conditions is disclosed. The system enables entities to competitively bid to customize the personality and/or other attribute of a character. For example, a character may be presented via an electronic channel to an audience (e.g., one or more end users who view, listen to, or otherwise experience a character through an electronic channel). An entity may bid on altering that character's personality and/or other attribute. If the entity's bid is selected by the system (e.g., over other bids that also compete to alter one or more attributes of that character), the system customizes the character's personality and/or other attribute according to the winning bid's customization, and presents the customized character via the electronic channel to the audience.
