Publication number: 20200280447Abstract: Data verification in federate learning is faster and simpler. As artificial intelligence grows in usage, data verification is needed to prove custody and/or control. Electronic data representing an original version of training data may be hashed to generate one or more digital signatures. The digital signatures may then be incorporated into one or more blockchains for historical documentation. Any auditor may then quickly verify and/or reproduce the training data using the digital signatures. For example, a current version of the training data may be hashed and compared to the digital signatures generated from the current version of the training data. If the digital signatures match, then the training data has not changed since its creation. However, if the digital signatures do not match, then the training data has changed since its creation. The auditor may thus flag the training data for additional investigation and scrutiny.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2020Publication date: September 3, 2020Applicant: Factom, Inc.Inventors: Paul Snow, Brian Deery, Mahesh Paolini-Subramanya, Jason Nadeau

Publication number: 20200279325Abstract: Due diligence of mortgage documents is faster and simpler. An electronic mortgage application often contains or references a collection of many separate electronic mortgage documents. Electronic data representing an original version of an electronic mortgage document and its current version may be hashed to generate digital signatures. Any auditor may then quickly conduct the due diligence by comparing the digital signatures. If the digital signatures match, then the due diligence reveals that the electronic mortgage document has not changed since its creation. However, if the digital signatures do not match, then the electronic mortgage document has changed since its creation. The auditor may thus flag the electronic mortgage document for additional due diligence. Regardless, a result of the due diligence may be incorporated into one or more blockchains.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2020Publication date: September 3, 2020Applicant: Factom, Inc.Inventors: Paul Snow, Brian Deery, Jason Nadeau, Mahesh Paolini-Subramanya

Publication number: 20200042988Abstract: A two-coin mechanism for maintaining a stable value of cryptographic coinage traded in a decentralized market exchange without requiring a reserve. A pegged cryptographic token and a variable-priced cryptographic token are both traded in the reserveless decentralized market exchange. The pegged cryptographic token and the variable-priced cryptographic token are value related based on a cryptographic exchange rate. Whenever a market transaction is processed (such as a buy or sell order), at least one of a destruction operation and a creation operation are performed. The destruction operation destroys at least one of the pegged cryptographic token and/or the variable-priced cryptographic token, while the creation operation creates new ones of the pegged cryptographic token and/or the variable-priced cryptographic token.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2018Publication date: February 6, 2020Applicant: Factom, Inc.Inventors: Paul Snow, Brian Deery, Gavin Gillas

Publication number: 20200042995Abstract: A multi-coin mechanism for maintaining a stable value of cryptographic coinage traded in a decentralized market exchange without requiring a reserve. Multiple, pegged cryptographic tokens are traded in the reserveless decentralized market exchange. Each of the multiple, pegged cryptographic tokens may be pegged to a different asset (such as different currencies and/or commodities). The multiple, pegged cryptographic tokens are value related based on cryptographic exchange rates. Whenever a market transaction is processed (such as a buy or sell order), at least one of a destruction operation and a creation operation are performed. The destruction operation destroys at least one of the pegged cryptographic tokens, while the creation operation creates new ones of the pegged cryptographic tokens n.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2019Publication date: February 6, 2020Applicant: Factom, Inc.Inventors: Paul Snow, Brian Deery, Gavin Gillas

Patent number: 10519924Abstract: A pool cleaner generator module with magnetic coupling. The generator module can include a housing, a paddle wheel, a magnetic follower, and a generator. The generator can power components of the pool cleaner, such as light emitting diode (LEDs). The housing can be removably coupled to the pool cleaner and can include a flow directing portion positioned in a fluid path of the pool cleaner. The paddle wheel can be located adjacent to the flow directing portion and can rotate in response to fluid flow through the fluid path. The generator can be magnetically coupled to the paddle wheel and can generate power through rotation of the paddle wheel. The LED can be coupled to the generator and can receive the generated power from the generator to illuminate an area adjacent to the pool cleaner.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2017Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc.Inventors: Brian Deery, Suresh Gopalan

Publication number: 20190394044Abstract: Confidential, secret data may be shared via one or more blockchains. Mortgage applications, medical records, financial records, and other electronic documents often contain social security numbers, names, addresses, account information, and other personal data. A secret sharing algorithm is applied to any secret data to generate shares. The shares may then be integrated or written to one or more blockchains for distribution.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2019Publication date: December 26, 2019Applicant: Factom, Inc.Inventors: Paul Snow, Brian Deery, Mahesh Paolini-Subramanya

Publication number: 20180219683Abstract: Possessory claims may be verified. When any entity claims to possess an electronic document, a verification scheme may require verification numbers associated with the electronic document. If the correct verification numbers are provided, then a claimant may actually possess the electronic document. However, if the correct verification numbers cannot be provided, then the verification scheme may deny that the claimant has the electronic document.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2017Publication date: August 2, 2018Inventors: Brian Deery, Jason Nadeau, Paul Snow, Mahesh Paolini-Subramanya
