Publication number: 20240106812Abstract: The techniques herein are directed generally to a “zero-knowledge” data management network. Users are able to share verifiable proof of data and/or identity information, and businesses are able to request, consume, and act on the data—all without a data storage server or those businesses ever seeing or having access to the raw sensitive information (where server-stored data is viewable only by the intended recipients, which may even be selected after storage). In one embodiment, source data is encrypted with a source encryption key (e.g., source public key), with a rekeying key being an encrypting combination of a source decryption key (e.g., source private key) and a recipient's public key. Without being able to decrypt the data, the storage server can use the rekeying key to re-encrypt the source data with the recipient's public key, to then be decrypted only by the corresponding recipient using its private key, accordingly.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Brett Shockley, Alexander John Shockley, Michael Joseph Frendo, Shmuel Shaffer, Kenneth Keiter, James M.

Publication number: 20240090827Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for improving analysis of sleep data by classifying users based on sleeper type. In particular, a wearable computing system can obtain a first set of motion sensor data from the motion sensor for a user during a first period. The wearable computing system can determine a sleeper type from a plurality of sleeper types for the user based on the first set of motion sensor data received from the motion sensor. The wearable computing system can select a sleep analysis model from a plurality of sleep analysis models based on the sleeper type determined for the user. The wearable computing system can use the selected sleep analysis model to analyze a second set of motion sensor data from a second period to determine one or more sleep characteristics for the user during the second period.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2021Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Alexander Statan, Sarah Ann Stokes Kernasovskiy, Alexandros Antonios Pantelopoulos, Conor Joseph Heneghan

Publication number: 20240095840Abstract: A computer-assisted method for providing re-quotations for insurance coverage may include receiving a list of insurance leads corresponding to individuals who received a previous quotation for insurance coverage but did not purchase the insurance coverage and identifying a difference between the previous quotation and a new quotation. This difference may include an increase in offered insurance coverage and/or a reduction in cost. A computing device may calculate a probability for each of the individuals on the list using a regression model based, at least in part, on the identified difference. In some cases, the regression model may be associated with individual states. In other cases, the regression model may correspond to a plurality of states. The regression model may output a probability that a resident of a particular state will purchase insurance in response to a re-quotation for insurance coverage, where individuals may then be ranked based on the probability.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Alexander Doyle, Ryan Dunn, Cristina I.
