Abstract: The present technology improves points-of-interest (POIs) in applications by the gathering and use of data available from various sources to improve metadata of POIs in applications (e.g., map applications) or any other metadata or information that may be of interest to a user regarding any given POI. The present technology resolves transactions to POIs or Brands (in a map application, for example) and improves, updates, creates, and removes POIs/Brands. The present technology can also gain a clear name, granular and correct categorization, a URL, phone/chat contact info, etc. of the transactions.

Abstract: Malicious activity data is obtained, that is indicative of attempted attacks on a computing system. Clusters of targets are identified and it is determined whether the malicious activity preferentially targets one cluster of targets over other. Also, low prevalence attacks are identified and it is determined whether a low prevalence attack has a high concentration in one or more of the target clusters. If the malicious activity either preferentially targets a cluster, or a low prevalence attack has a high concentration in a cluster, then the attack is identified as a targeted attack, so that remediation steps can be taken.

Abstract: The disclosed technology provides enhanced financial statements such as credit statements that provide customized payment options to a customer that takes into account the total amount owed by the customer, and past payments made by the customer. The customized payment options are determined with the goal of providing more payment options that encourage financial health, while not overwhelming the customer with too many options or irrelevant options. The customized payment options can be displayed in an interactive user interface for paying a credit statement that can visually inform a user of the benefit of the respective payment options with respect to the impact of the respective payment option on the customer's financial health—at least as it pertains to a credit account for which the statement was issued.

The microservice node can include the static VRS agent to publish the corrections data in a second message in a second message queue. The microservice node can include an adapter device to determine that the client device is located within a geographic area associated with the static VRS agent and to transmit the corrections data from the second message queue to the client device.

Abstract: A facility employing systems, methods, and/or techniques for dynamically and adaptively configuring configurable energy consuming and producing devices (e.g., smart energy devices) based on user profiles and user presence information is disclosed. In some embodiments, the facility periodically detects the presence of users, and retrieves preference information for those users. For each of one or more configurable energy devices in the area, the facility generates a combined setting based on the preferences of each user present and adjusts the devices based on the combined settings. For example, if User A, User B, and User C are present in a room and User A's preferred temperature setting is 75° F., User B's preferred temperature setting is 68° F., and User C's preferred temperature setting is 70° F., the facility may generate a combined setting for a thermostat by taking the average value of the users in the room.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for assigning a geographical location to a photograph of a landscape. A geographic location tag is calculated from raw sensor data and a three-dimensional terrain map that corresponds to the landscape in the photograph. One technique includes calculating a two-dimensional ideal view projection of a camera used to take the landscape photograph based at least in part on a geographic location of the camera when the landscape photograph was taken and a field of view of the camera when the landscape photograph was taken. At least one of the topographical features visible from the camera based on the two-dimensional ideal view projection is selected from a three-dimensional terrain map representing a plurality of topographical features within a geographic region. At least one geographic location tag representing at least one of the selected topographical features is assigned to the landscape photograph.

Abstract: This invention relates to electrically-driven propulsors for regional aircraft. These combine fans optimized for quiet regional operations with rotating variable pitch mechanisms contained within the hubs and highly efficient ring electric motors. The ring motors are used to drive annular fans at the inner or outer radius, or a conventional fan at the inner radius. The assembly combines a single fan, fixed or variable pitch, with a row of stators, or multiple counter-rotating fans without stators. Our focus is on propulsors optimized for quiet and efficient regional flights, but many elements apply to long-haul air and several other applications referred to herein.
