Abstract: Described herein are a system and techniques for increasing the efficiency of generating a result set for a query. In some embodiments, the techniques may involve performing computations on a high-level element, sorting, and selecting a set of the high-level elements, and recursively repeating the process on sub-elements of the set of the high-level elements. The process may be recursively repeated until a specified level of granularity is reached. This may significantly decrease the number of computations that need to be performed, increasing the speed with which queries can be performed. In some embodiments, the process may involve identifying elements which may be highly correlated to optimal computation results and may add those elements to the result set to improve the accuracy of the result set.

Abstract: A system and method includes an authorization request message configured with information about transaction amounts of items aggregated according to item categories and applicable rates for the items in the respective categories. Based on the information provided in the authorization request, a transaction handler is configured to compute a modified transaction amount for the transaction by reducing the transaction amount of items in one or more of the categories, without reducing the transaction amount(s) of items in one or more other categories, and computing a total transaction amount based on the reduction and the applicable rates.

Abstract: A global AI platform and a method for generating aggregated and ordered data sets are disclosed. Aggregated and ordered data sets are data sets that have been grouped, ordered, and for which one or more data values in the data set have been aggregated. As a result of their aggregation and ordering, aggregated and ordered data sets can be retrieved from a database and used more quickly than non-ordered, non-aggregated data sets. A data processor computer can receive a plurality of data sets, and from those data sets generate aggregated and ordered data sets that can subsequently be stored in an aggregated and ordered database. A data service computer can retrieve a subset of the aggregated and ordered data sets from the database, and use the subset as an input to an AI model that can be used to generate predictions that can be delivered to clients.

Abstract: A system and method to detect changes in transaction parameters for the identification of a store of the merchant in a payment processing network. The system is configured to monitor input data, such as acquirer's merchant master file (AMMF), transaction records, to detect transaction parameters of a processing entity that partially match with the transaction parameters associated with an external, persistent identifier of the merchant and/or the store of the merchant, determine a change or difference introduced in the detect transaction parameters, and update the set of transaction parameters associated with the persistent identifier of the store of the merchant that can be used to identify the set of transaction parameters of the store in a communication external to the communication system of the payment processing network.

Abstract: A computing apparatus configured to verify a digital signature applied on a set of data received from a user device, including an user ID assigned by a partner system to uniquely identify a user of the user device among customers of the partner system, and a user device identifier identifying the user device. The digital signature is generated via applying a cryptographic one-way hash function on a combination of the set of data and a secret, shared between the computing apparatus and the partner system via a secure communication channel separate from a channel used to receive the set of data.

Abstract: A user interface to register merchants. The user interface is configured to allow a merchant to search and identify a set of transaction parameters that are used in authorization and/or settlement messages of payment transactions initiated for a store of the merchant and allow the merchant to obtain a store identifier representing the set of transaction parameters. The store identifier, for example, can be used to label offers of the store of the merchant. Thus, whether or not an authorization or settlement message transmitted in the payment processing network for a payment transaction is for the store can be determined based on whether or not the transaction parameters in the message match with the set of transaction parameters represented by the store identifier.

Abstract: System and method configured to store data defining merchant groups, data associating transaction terminals with merchant groups, and data associating offers with merchant groups. Each of the merchant has one or more transaction terminals configured to process payments via a payment processing network. When a transaction being processed in the payment processing network is detected to be relevant to offers, the transaction data is augmented/enriched with data identifying one or more merchant groups to which a transaction terminal that initiates the transaction is associated. Offer rules are applied to the transaction data that is augmented with merchant group data.
