Abstract: Techniques are described for automated musical-score-referenced evaluation of haptic-based rhythmic performance. An audiovisual representation of real-time progress through a musical score is output to a user. The output corresponds to progress through a sequence of score-notated rhythm (SNR) events at a tempo. During the outputting, haptic performance (HP) events are received from a user via a haptic interface as the user's rhythmic performance of the SNR events at the tempo. Automated techniques evaluate the user's performance to determine a rhythmic compatibility between the received HP events and evaluation data for the SNR events. Visual feedback is provided to the user to graphically map the evaluated performance to the SNR events on the musical score.

Abstract: In some implementations, an information tracking device may provide a graphical user interface (GUI) associated with providing contextual assistance to a user. The GUI may include a viewpoint region within a display area of the GUI. The information tracking device may track a content position that is associated with a position of content that is positioned within the viewpoint region. The information tracking device may identify a set of elements that is positioned within the viewpoint region, a set of user interactions associated with the set of elements that is positioned within the viewpoint region, and/or a time period that the content that is positioned within the viewpoint region remains positioned within the viewpoint region. The information tracking device may perform an action related to providing the contextual assistance based on at least one of the set of elements, the set of user interactions, and/or the time period.

Abstract: A payment processing method uses a credit push for disbursing funds at ATM. The process can include scanning an optical code at an ATM using a mobile device to determine creditor bank information. A debtor bank server receives a funds disbursement request and provides a credit push request to a payment rail. The payment rail communicates a credit payment transaction request to a creditor bank sever. The creditor bank server identifies the ATM using an ATM identifier provided to the mobile device via the optical code. The ATM is instructed to disburse funds by the creditor bank server. The method includes using the mobile device, or other issuer domain, authentication procedures. The funds can be disbursed by the ATM without the ATM performing any authentication procedures.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to geocoding geocode datasets in KYC blockchain data blocks for spatial analytical risk modeling. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive a client request to initiate a transaction with an enterprise organization. Using financial documentation and identification documentation associated with the client request, the computing platform may generate geocode coordinates and may identify a series of geographic risk factors. The computing platform may translate the geocode coordinates and the geographic risk factors into analytical overlays. The computing platform may stack the analytical overlays to generate an interactive spatial risk analysis model. The enterprise organization may use the interactive spatial analytical risk model to analyze the client request, and to determine whether to approve or deny the client request.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for facilitating card authentication technique selection via machine learning are provided. In various embodiments, a processor can access an attribute vector associated with a financial payment card. In various instances, the processor can determine, via execution of a machine learning model, whether to authenticate the financial payment card with a zero-dollar authentication technique or instead with a tokenization authentication technique, based on the attribute vector. In various cases, the processor can execute the zero-dollar authentication technique with respect to the financial payment card, when the processor determines that the financial payment card should be authenticated with the zero-dollar authentication technique.
