  • Patent number: 10949581
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program provides a client device a tool for configuring computational models. The program further receives, from the client device and through the tool, a selection of a set of external data sources. The program also receives, from the client device and through the tool, a plurality of weight values for a plurality of categories. The program further receives, from the client device and through the tool, a plurality of threshold values for the plurality of categories. The program also generates a plurality of computational models based on the set of external data sources, the plurality of weight values for the plurality of categories, and the plurality of threshold values for the plurality of categories.

  • Publication number: 20190079990
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. In response to receiving a request from a client device for an overall score for an entity, the program retrieves a first set of data associated with the entity and a second set of data associated with the entity. The program further uses a first computational model to generate a first score based on the first set of the data. The program also uses a second computational model to generate a second score based on the second set of data. The program further determines the overall score for the entity based on the first score and the second score.

  • Publication number: 20160110054
    Abstract: A method and system for enabling a user to customize a theme for modifying a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI comprises components that are customizable. These include icons, fonts, colors, images, etc. Themes comprise GUI elements, and a GUI element of a theme is associated with a component of a GUI. GUI elements comprise icons, colors, wallpapers, notification sounds, ringtones, etc., which are applied to components of a GUI when a theme is applied to the GUI. The system generates a theme preview for a theme, which comprises a representation of the theme applied to components of a GUI. A user can customize a theme by selecting, via an interface generated by the system, a component of a GUI, and identifying an alternate GUI element to be associated with the component in the theme.

  • Publication number: 20050021421
    Abstract: A stand alone console includes selector buttons and a joystick that that communicated to a computer logic controller stored within the stand alone console. A display is connected to the console and communicated to the logic controller to display lists of categorized, digitized music stored on a static digital storage device. A currency receiver is also included in the stand alone console and is communicated to the logic controller such that selection of the buttons and joystick and receipt of money generates a signal to play music through console speakers.
