  • Patent number: 11836710
    Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating payment application provisioning and transacting are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method for provisioning a token to a third party payment application on a mobile device may include (1) receiving a logon from a customer using a mobile application for a financial institution executed on a mobile device and a device identifier for the mobile device; (2) receiving a request to provision a token for a third party payment application; (3) authenticating the customer using the logon information and the device identifier; (4) provisioning a token for a payment device associated with the customer; and (5) providing the token to the third party payment application for transaction processing.

  • Patent number: 11436349
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is directed to leveraging GPU farms for machine learning where the selection of data is self-service. The data may be cleansed based on a classification and automatically transferred to a cloud services platform. This allows an entity to leverage the commoditization of the GPU farms in the public cloud without exposing data into that cloud. Also, an entire creation of a ML instance may be fully managed by a business analyst, data scientist and/or other users and teams.

  • Patent number: 9200909
    Abstract: Traffic flow data representing traffic conditions on a road system is obtained. A user selects a start geographical location and an end geographical location. An animated flythrough 3D graphical map is then created and displayed beginning at the start geographical location and navigating toward the end geographical location. The traffic flow data is continuously displayed during the flythrough.

  • Patent number: 7859535
    Abstract: An article of manufacture for displaying traffic flow data representing traffic conditions on a road system includes creating a graphical map of the road system which includes one or more segments. The status of each segment on the graphical map is determined such that the status of each segment corresponds to the traffic flow data associated with that segment. An animated traffic flow map of the road system is created by combining the graphical map and the status of each segment.

  • Publication number: 20100225644
    Abstract: A method and system for transitioning between views in a traffic report are disclosed. The transition involves having the elements of both the 2D map and the 3D virtual world spatially located in the same virtual world. The transition involves moving from one part of the virtual world to another part of the virtual world while fading out the elements that are specific to the first type of graphic and showing elements that are specific to the second type of graphic. The view can be seamlessly transitioned between the 2D map view and the 3D world view, or between two different 3D world views.

  • Patent number: 7765055
    Abstract: Traffic flow data is obtained for a road system that encompasses a predefined geographical region. A user then selects an object of interest within the geographical region. The object of interest has a corresponding geographical location. A graphical map of the road system is then created and the traffic flow data representing traffic conditions on the road system is displayed on the graphical map, wherein the graphical map includes the geographical location of the user-selected object of interest.

  • Publication number: 20100005110
    Abstract: A method of displaying traffic information on a web page is provided. The traffic information includes traffic conditions of one or more specified roads. A web browser requests a web page that includes programming code related to some traffic information. The web browser interprets the programming code and requests at least some of the traffic information from a remote site specified by the programming code. The request includes a uniform resource identifier (URI) of the remote site, and a unique identifier of the traffic information. The web browser then assembles the web page using at least some of the requested traffic information obtained from the remote site. The assembled web page displays at least some of the traffic information, including traffic conditions of the one or more specified roads.
