Publication number: 20240116165Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver unit, a handle unit, and a handle extension. The handle unit is selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit. The handle extension has a first end and a second end, the handle extension being selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit at the first end, and being selectively and removably attachable to the handle unit at the second end. The powered fastener driver is adjustable between a first configuration in which the handle unit is directly attached to the driver unit, and a second configuration in which the driver unit is attached to the handle extension at the first end, and the handle unit is attached to the handle extension at the second end.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: John S.

Patent number: 11948153Abstract: System and method for automatically calling back a customer via a predictive model determines a plurality of call-back metrics for a plurality of advisor records. The predictive model is applied to call-back data to identify customers that are likely to require a series of call-backs, and automatically generates a preferred call-back to such customers to reduce this risk. The automated call-back may follow termination of an identified customer's inbound call, or at some time after completion of a previous call interaction of the identified customer with an advisor. In the predictive model, a first compilation of call-back metrics record is representative of an overall likelihood of call-backs associated with each advisor record, and a second compilation of the plurality of call-back metrics is representative of a likelihood of call-backs for each of the plurality of products of the enterprise associated with the advisor record.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance CompanyInventors: John Karlen, Peng Wang, Adam Fox, Tam Tran-The, Matthew Girard, Michael Crough

Patent number: 11853913Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises an analytic server, which evaluates user data for premium financing status and dynamically renders graphical user interfaces. The server trains an artificial intelligence model based on historical user data. The artificial intelligence model comprises one or more data points with each data point representing one of a plurality of attributes and applies a logistic regression algorithm to identify a weight factor for each attribute. The server uses a dynamic algorithm to generate a score by combining the plurality of attributes based on the weight factors. The server receives responses regarding the scores that indicate the premium financing status of each case. The server retrains the artificial intelligence model to identify new weight factors based on negative responses data. The server automatically displays new scores calculated based on the new weight factors.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2023Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance CompanyInventors: Xiaomin Lin, Matthew Girard, Michael Crough, Peng Wang, Adam Fox, Robert Greif

Publication number: 20230410609Abstract: A gaming system and method utilize an electronic display device configured to display a plurality of symbol-bearing reels and an array of symbol positions. The array of symbol positions comprises a plurality of rows and columns. The plurality of symbol-bearing reels are spun and stopped to land symbols on the reels in the symbol positions of the array. Payouts are awarded for any winning symbol combinations along horizontal and vertical ways. In response to a triggering event, the array is expanded by expanding one or more of the rows of the array to add one or more symbol positions to each expanded row. The plurality of symbol-bearing reels are again spun and stopped to land symbols on the reels in the symbol positions of the expanded array. Payouts are again awarded for any winning symbol combinations along the horizontal and vertical ways.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Mats ANDERSSON, Oliver ANDREWS, Adam FOX, Lucas PARKINSON

Patent number: 11715563Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises an analytic server, which determines user health attributes by tracking the user’s behaviors and activities within a predetermined space. The analytic server receives tracking data from a set of sensors installed in the predetermined space. The sensors track a beacon worn by the user. The analytic server determines micro-locations and user behaviors based on the tracking data. The analytic server determines the coordinates of the sensors based on the sensor identifiers and maps the coordinates to regions by referring to a floor plan map. The analytic server determines the user behaviors and activities by aggregating the micro-locations and regions the user visited at different time. The analytic server determines the user’s health score based on the micro-locations and user behaviors by executing an artificial intelligence model. The analytic server determines a recommendation of premium based on the health score.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2020Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance CompanyInventors: Adam Fox, Sears Merritt, Marc Maier
