  • Patent number: 12379902
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining a directed graph of a self-executing protocol, the directed graph including a set of vertices associated with mutually exclusive category labels, where the self-executing protocol identifies a first entity. The method may include obtaining a first graph portion template that includes a vertex template and an edge template. The vertex template is associated with a category of the mutually exclusive category labels. The method may include determining whether the first graph portion template matches a graph portion in the directed graph and an edge of the directed graph matching the edge template. The method may include determining an outcome score based on the graph portion template matching the graph portion, determining whether the outcome score satisfies an outcome score threshold, and storing a value indicating that the outcome score satisfies the outcome score threshold.

  • Patent number: 12339904
    Abstract: A method includes determining a set of features associated with a set of vertices of a directed graph, obtaining a set of feature values associated with the set of vertices, where each respective vertex of set of vertices is associated with a respective subset of feature values. The method includes determining updatable features based on the set of features, selecting a first subset of features based on the set of updatable features. Selecting the first subset of features includes determining candidate subsets of features, determining feature subset scores associated with the candidate subsets of features based on a category label, and selecting the first subset of features based on the feature subset scores. The method includes performing a first operation to determine extracted feature values by determining feature extraction input values.

  • Patent number: 12299036
    Abstract: A process includes receiving a request via an API, determining a query based on a set of query parameters, and determining a target graph portion template based on the query, where the request includes a callback address. The process may include searching a set of directed graphs to determine a set of graph portions based on the query. Each respective directed graph of the set of directed graphs may include a set of vertices and a set of directed edges connecting respective pairs of vertices among the set of vertices, where each respective vertex of the set of vertices is associated with a respective category label of a set of mutually exclusive categories. The process may include selecting a set of event records and sending a value of the set of event records to the callback address.

  • Publication number: 20240135106
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process includes obtaining a natural-language-text document comprising a first and second clause and determining first and second embedding sequences based on n-grams of the first and second clauses. The process includes generating data model objects based on the embedding sequences and determining an association between the first data model object and the second data model object based on a shared parameter of the first and second clauses. The process includes receiving a query including the first category and the first n-gram and causing a presentation of a visualization of data model objects that includes shapes based on the data model objects and a third shape based on the association between the first data model object and the second data model object.
