  • Patent number: 12204741
    Abstract: A screenshot method includes that a terminal responds to a non-stylus operation by entering a screenshot waiting state. When the terminal establishes a connection to the stylus, the terminal detects an operation of the stylus on a touchscreen of the terminal. If an operation of drawing a closed figure with the stylus is detected, the terminal takes a screenshot of interface content in the closed figure drawn with the stylus.

  • Publication number: 20250023889
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are directed to machine learning techniques that use a separate embedding layer. This can allow for continuous monitoring of a processing system based on events that are continuously generated. Various events may have corresponding feature data associated with at least one action relating to a processing system. Embedding vectors that correspond to the features are retrieved from an embedding layer that is hosted on a separate physical device or a separate computer system from a computer that hosts the machine learning system. The embedding vectors are processed though the machine learning model, which may then make a determination (e.g. whether or not a particular user action should be allowed). Generic embedding vectors additionally enable the use of a single remote embedding layer for multiple different machine learning models, such as event driven data models.

  • Patent number: 11785030
    Abstract: This application discusses identifying data processing timeouts in live risk analysis systems. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor, may provide a production computing environment that includes a risk analysis system having one or more risk models, which may be machine-learning based. These risk models may be utilized in order to determine whether incoming data processing requests are fraudulent. To test these risk models using production data traffic, an audit computing environment made of a set of machines that do not service production computing environment requests, but that utilize databases and data connections as are used by the production systems. The audit computing environment may thus mirror the risk models and functionality of the production computing environment without the drawbacks of a typical fully separate testing environment.
