  • Patent number: 11170433
    Abstract: Big data analysis methods and machine learning based models are used to provide offer recommendations to consumers that are probabilistically determined to be relevant to a given consumer. Machine learning based matching of user attributes and offer attributes is first performed to identify potentially relevant offers for a given consumer. A de-duplication process is then used to identify and eliminate any offers represented in the offer data that the consumer has already seen, has historically shown no interest in, has already accepted, that are directed to product or service types the user/consumer already owns, for which the user does not qualify, or that are otherwise deemed to be irrelevant to the consumer.

  • Publication number: 20210232976
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a composite machine learning system for a transaction labeling service. A transaction labeling service receives at least one descriptive string describing a transaction associated with a user. The service identifies a preliminary grouping from a generalized scheme. The service extracts a set of N-grams from the descriptive string and converts the N-grams and the preliminary grouping into a set of features. A machine learning model determines a label from a labeling scheme for the transaction based on the features. User input related to the label includes an accuracy indicator and a reliability indicator. If the reliability indicator satisfies a reliability condition, a set of training data for the machine learning model is updated based on the descriptive string and the label. The machine learning model is then trained against the updated set of training data.

  • Publication number: 20210217102
    Abstract: A method that predicts business income from user transaction data. A multinomial classifier is trained, using a vector of features from data related to a historical transaction and a label associated with the historical transaction, to generate a probability that the historical transaction belongs to a specific classification with respect to income. Data related to a new transaction is split into a set of unigrams. A new vector of features is generated from the data related to the new transaction. The new vector includes a set of values that correspond and are assigned to the set of unigrams. A classification with respect to income is determined for the new transaction by applying the multinomial classifier to the new vector. The new transaction is labeled with the classification. One or more fields of a form that is maintained by an online service is populated using the classification.
