Publication number: 20240111888Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and verifier and/or prover devices or query verification apparatuses are disclosed that generate a first commitment from received data and send the received data to a prover device for insertion into a table of a database. A query result and an overall proof are received from the prover device in response to a received query forwarded to the prover device and associated with the database table. The overall proof is generated from one or more partial proofs comprising one or more commitments generated from one or more intermediate values. The query result and an indication the query result was verified are returned in response to the received query after verifying the query result based on a second commitment to the query result generated using the first commitment and the overall proof.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: SPACE AND TIME LABS, INC.Inventors: Jay Thomas WHITE, Scott Edward Daly DYKSTRA

Patent number: 11947525Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and query verification apparatuses are disclosed that receive a result vector, an index to the result vector, a range proof, and an inner product proof from a prover device after providing a query vector to the prover device. The prover device hosts a vector database with rows and columns. Second and third commitments to a distance vector and a random linear combination vector, respectively, are generated based on a first commitment to the rows. The range proof is checked using the second commitment and the inner product proof is checked using the third commitment and a generator used to generate the first commitment and identified based on the index. The result vector is returned after confirming that it is one of the rows and each of the rows is as far from the query vector as the result vector based on the check of the proofs.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: SPACE AND TIME LABS, INC.Inventors: Jay Thomas White, Scott Edward Daly Dykstra

Patent number: 11922526Abstract: Aspects of distributed ledger technology are leveraged to verify subrogation settlements. In particular, two parties to a subrogation claim provide cryptographic hashes to a subrogation demand smart contract stored at an address on a blockchain. The subrogation demand smart contract determines that the parties have reached an agreement by determining that the cryptographic hashes match. A settlement amount from the subrogation claim may be appended to a set of settlement amounts to determine a net settlement amount to facilitate a single payment between the parties on a periodic basis, such as daily, to alleviate the need for the parties to send or receive a payment for each individual settlement amount.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANYInventors: Ryan Maurer, Nolan White, Kyle D.
