  • Publication number: 20230008443
    Abstract: A system processes images of documents, for example, identification documents. The system transforms an image of a document to generate an image that represent the document in a canonical form. For example, if the input image has a document that is tilted at an angle with respect to the sides of the image, the system modifies the orientation of the document to show the document having sides aligned with the sides of the image. The system stores user accounts that include user information including images. The system generates a graph of nodes that represent user accounts with edges determined based on similarity scores between user accounts. The system determines connected components of user accounts, such that each connected component represents user accounts that have a high likelihood of being duplicates.

  • Publication number: 20190171755
    Abstract: Various embodiments determine relevance of place data by determining whether a place record is relevant based on a set of features associated with the place record. For a given place record, a set of features may be generated based on values of one or more attributes included in the given place record. A given place record may be processed by at least one machine learning model, such as a classifier, which receives as input a set of features of the given place record and outputs a prediction score indicating the certainty or probability that the given place record is associated with, or belongs to, a particular class. The certainty/probability of association between a given place record and a particular class can assist some embodiments in determining (e.g., predicting) whether the given place record is relevant or non-relevant for an intended use, such as a software application for a ride service.

  • Publication number: 20190171733
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving accuracy of geographic position data are provided. A networked system mines ticket data from content of the ticket. Based on the ticket data, a determination is made that the ticket indicates an issue with a trip involving a point of interest (POI). The networked system extracts trip data from a trip log corresponding to the trip involving the POI, and identifies, from a data storage, stored attributes of the POI. The networked system analyzes the ticket data, trip data, and attributes to determine a workflow to improve accuracy of the POI, whereby the analyzing comprises determining a priority level to verify accuracy of the POI. The workflow is triggered based on the priority level to verify accuracy of the POI.

  • Publication number: 20190171732
    Abstract: Various embodiments determine accuracy of place data by determining a context for a place record (that is included in the place data) and determining accuracy of the place record based on a set of criteria associated with the context determined for the place record. For some embodiments, the set of criteria is used in place of, or in conjunction with, another set of fixed criteria for determining accuracy of the place record. Context for the given place record may be determined based on a set of features for the given place record, and the set of features may be generated (e.g., derived or extracted) based on values of one or more attributes (e.g., record fields or fields) included in the given place record. For some embodiments, a quality of a place record is determined based on at least the determination of an accuracy of the place record.
