Patent number: 10438298Abstract: Systems, methods, and articles of manufacture for expense management are disclosed. A user may submit receipts for one or more transactions into an expense management system. The expense management system may extract information from the receipts and match the extracted information to one or more of a plurality of Records of Charge (ROCs). The expense management system may match the extracted information to a ROC based on vendor name, location, time stamp, and the like. The expense management system may further assign a ROC to an expense category. The expense management system may assign a ROC to an expense category based on a standard industrial classification (SIC) code of a merchant, a category assigned to a different ROC, and a location associated with the ROC. An expense report for all submitted receipts may be generated.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVEL RELATED SERVICES COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Azriel Chelst, Estelle Mangeney, Lee Pham

Patent number: 9805024Abstract: A semantic tagging method may add context to a sentence in order to increase search efficiency. Regardless of an author's writing style, translating semantic concepts into tags may increase search efficiency. Automatic semantic tagging of documents may allow semantic search and reasoning. Text for semantic tagging may include an email, a website chat room, an internet forum, or a text message. Additional texts may include aggregating general consensus of an emailed topic across multiple emails, whether in the same email chain or separate emails. To increase search efficiency, the analysis of prior communications within the body of text may comprise analyzing structured contextual information to facilitate with homophora resolution. The structured contextual information may include at least one of a sender email address, one or more recipient email addresses, a subject field, a message date and time stamp, and an attachment title.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2016Date of Patent: October 31, 2017Assignee: AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVEL RELATED SERVICES COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Azriel Chelst, Nicola J.

Patent number: 9533227Abstract: A method in support of providing customized gamification for accomplishing goals receives a request to generate a game framework, the request specifying a goal to be accomplished by one or more participants of a plurality of participants, at least in part through interaction with the game framework. A first set of one or more game parameters to be applied to the game framework is determined for at least a first participant of the plurality of participants, and the game framework comprising the first set of one or more game parameters is generated. The game framework comprising the first set of one or more game parameters is applied to a first profile relating to the first participant of the plurality of participants. The game framework can then be provided to an electronic computing device of the first participant over the network. Systems can be constructed to implement the methods described herein.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2014Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: Mingo Development, Inc.Inventor: Azriel Chelst
