  • Publication number: 20220078141
    Abstract: Example embodiments of messaging systems and methods are provided. An example system includes a database containing a plurality of messages, a plurality of emoji responses, and a plurality of text reactions. The system further includes a predictive model trained using the plurality of messages and the plurality of emoji responses as inputs and the plurality of text reactions as outputs to determine a mapping relationship between the inputs and the outputs. The predictive model receives a message and one or more emoji responses to the message, combines and summarizes the one or more emoji responses to a text reaction to the message based on the mapping relationship, and transmits the text reaction to a user who initiates the message.

  • Publication number: 20220058016
    Abstract: In some implementations, a server device may receive, from a client device, a script identifier, that identifies a script, and an indication of whether the script was successfully executed by the client device. The server device may determine whether a condition associated with disabling the script is satisfied based on the script identifier, the indication of whether the script was successfully executed by the client device, and stored information determined based on a plurality of indications of whether the script was successfully executed by a plurality of other client devices. The server device may selectively cause a data structure to be updated to indicate that the script is disabled based on determining whether the condition is satisfied. The data structure may be used to indicate whether the script is enabled prior to execution of the script.

  • Publication number: 20220050976
    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to improving card security by providing a user a contactless card with no sensitive card information, such as card number, card verification value, and expiration date, printed thereon, and displaying the sensitive card information relative to the card in augmented reality (AR) based on successful NFC-based user authentication. According to examples, the NFC-based user authentication may be performed by one-tapping or single tapping the contactless card to user mobile device. One or more portions of the sensitive card information may be obfuscated to further enhance card security. Moreover, the user can interact with AR elements including the sensitive card information to perform various actions.

  • Publication number: 20220051239
    Abstract: A toll transponder may receive transaction card data identifying a transaction card associated with a transaction account. The toll transponder may provide to a toll server device, and via a toll antenna of a toll collection system, a request for a transaction amount for a vehicle toll, and may receive a response requesting authorization for payment of the transaction amount. The toll transponder may determine, based on the response, an authorization request cryptogram for payment of the transaction amount, and generate an encrypted signal identifying the authorization request cryptogram, the transaction card data, and a toll transponder identifier identifying the toll transponder. The toll transponder may provide the encrypted signal to the toll server device via the toll antenna, and may receive from the toll server device, via the toll antenna, data indicating whether the transaction amount for the vehicle toll is approved.

  • Publication number: 20220034664
    Abstract: A device may receive application data associated with transaction applications of client devices and transaction card data associated with transaction cards. The device may receive geographical data identifying a geographical area associated with users of the client devices and the transaction cards. The device may determine, based on the application data, the transaction card data, and the geographical data, location data identifying geographical locations of the users in the geographical area. The device may determine, based on the location data, quantity data identifying quantities of the users located on multiple paths of the geographical area. The device may process the geographical data, the location data, and the quantity data, with a machine learning model, to identify a path with less than a threshold quantity of users in the geographical area. The device may perform one or more actions based on the path.

  • Publication number: 20210383251
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are described herein for performing sentiment analysis on electronic communications relating to one or more image-based communications methods, such as emoji. Message data may be received. The message data may correspond to a message that is intended to be sent but has not yet been sent to an application. Using a first machine learning model, one or more subsets of the plurality of emoji may be determined. The one or more subsets of the plurality of emoji may comprise one or more different types and quantities of emoji, and may each correspond to the same or a different sentiment. Using a second machine learning model, one or more emojis may be selected from the one or more subsets. The one or more emojis selected may correspond to responses to the message.

  • Publication number: 20210374749
    Abstract: A user profile scoring platform may analyze a transaction log of a transaction account of a user to determine, based on transactions of the transaction log, a qualification status of the user, wherein the qualification status indicates that a characteristic of the user satisfies a threshold qualification metric. The user profile scoring platform may determine, based on the qualification status, a transaction-based score associated with the user, wherein the transaction-based score is determined using a transaction log analysis model. The user profile scoring platform may obtain, based on receiving the access information, a user score associated with a user transaction history that is associated with a plurality of transaction accounts that are associated with the user and different from the transaction account. The user profile scoring platform may perform an action based on the transaction-based score and the user score.

  • Patent number: 11184183
    Abstract: In order to facilitate electronic meeting scheduling and coordination, systems and methods are disclosed including receiving, by a processor, a plurality of electronic meeting requests to schedule a meeting. The processor determines, for each electronic meeting request, meeting room needs. A meeting scheduling machine learning model is utilized to predict parameters of meeting room objects representing the candidate meeting rooms based at least in part on the meeting room needs, schedule information associated with a respective electronic meeting request and location information associated with the respective electronic meeting request. The processor causes an indication of the candidate meeting rooms to display in response to the electronic meeting request on a screen of computing devices associated with the respective attendees based at least in part on the predicted parameters.

  • Publication number: 20210279715
    Abstract: A transaction card receives sound waves that represent a user command, where the user command identifies one or more transaction restrictions of the transaction card. The transaction card converts the sound waves to a digital signal and identifies, based on an analysis of the digital signal, user command data that identifies the user command. The transaction card sets, based on identifying the user command data, one or more transaction restriction values for the one or more transaction restrictions. The transaction card receives transaction metadata associated with a transaction and determines whether the transaction is compliant with the one or more transaction restrictions. The transaction card causes, based on determining whether the transaction is compliant with the one or more transaction restrictions, the transaction to be processed by a server device, or to be declined.
