Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for improving fraud detection in the context of a user submitting, via a client device, a photo of a photo ID and a selfie taken during a step of the verification process. A machine learning model may be trained to generate biometric data signals from the selfie. As examples, the biometric data signals generated from the selfie can include an estimated age, gender, hair color, and eye color. The biometric data generated from the selfie may be compared with biometric data listed on the photo ID as an aid to identifying potential identity fraud. In some implementations, a facial filter corresponding to a map of a set of facial measurements of the photo in the photo ID may be compared with the facial measurements of the selfie.

One or more selected tiles of the data processing array used by the design as implemented in the target IC are configured to generate trace data based on user-specified runtime settings for performing a trace. During execution of the design by the data processing array, trace data as generated by the one or more selected tiles of the data processing array is conveyed to a memory of the target IC using the trace data offload architecture. A trace report is generated from the trace data using a data processing system coupled to the target IC.

Abstract: A computer system receives a request to locate a vehicle within a facility. The computer system parses the request to identify one or more characteristics of the vehicle. The computer system identifies a sensor corresponding to the vehicle based on the one or more characteristics of the vehicle. The computer system identifies a most recent location of the vehicle based on the last registered position of the vehicle within the facility. The computer system transmits a signal to a parking spot sensor at the most recent location of the vehicle in the facility. The computer system receives the unique identification. The computer system determines that the unique identification of the vehicle sensor co-located with the parking spot sensor matches the sensor of the requested vehicle. The computer system reports to the user a current location of the vehicle within the facility based on a location of the parking spot sensor.
