  • Publication number: 20240104193
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for direct assignment of physical devices to confidential virtual machines (VMs). At a first guest privilege context of a guest partition, a direct assignment of a physical device associated with a host computer system to the guest partition is identified. The guest partition includes the first guest privilege context and a second guest privilege context, which is restricted from accessing memory associated with the first guest privilege context. The guest partition corresponds to a confidential VM, such that a memory region associated with the guest partition is inaccessible to a host operating system. It is determined, based on a policy, that the physical device is allowed to be directly assigned to the guest partition. Communication between the physical device and the second guest privilege context is permitted, such as by exposing the physical device on a virtual bus and/or forwarding an interrupt.

  • Publication number: 20240061846
    Abstract: Methods and systems disclosed herein describe customizing searching. Search queries may be customized according to a user's preferences. A user may emphasize or indicate that additional weight should be given to one or more terms in a search query. Terms that are weighted higher may have a larger impact on the results that are returned in response to the search query. In addition to changing the terms in a search query, a user may provide a weight for each term. Each term in a search query may be weighted to varying degrees, giving a user more control over the results that are returned. The weights may be used with machine learning techniques to generate a vector representation of a search query. The vector representation of the search query may be compared with vector representations of search objects to determine results that match the search query.

  • Publication number: 20240037458
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing network traffic associated with a service. In some aspects, the systems and methods provide for using a first machine learning model to process a data stream for a communication with a user and generate a confidence score regarding whether to assign a communication suppression flag to the user account. Based on the confidence score not exceeding a first threshold, a communication suppression flag is not assigned to the user account. Based on the confidence score being between first and second thresholds, at least a portion of the data stream is extracted based on temporal proximity to a time stamp of an intent of the user to not receive further communications. Using a second machine learning model, the extracted portion of the data stream is processed to generate a prediction regarding whether to assign a communication suppression flag to the user account.

  • Publication number: 20230252517
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments may include a method for automatically providing customized financial card incentives where the system can identify if a transaction is eligible for additional bonus rewards by determining if the user is a student using a clustering algorithm with user similarity data to generate a probability. Then, if the probability is above a predetermined threshold, a machine learning model with comprehensive user data classifies the user as a student or non-student. Once the user is determined to be a student, the transaction is verified as being an educational purchase using the transaction data or by having the user provide an image of a receipt. Once the transaction is verified, the transaction or items within the transaction qualify for additional rewards that are applied to the user’s account. Users who are not identified as students may qualify for a standard amount of rewards.
