  • Publication number: 20230005045
    Abstract: A method is provided for automatic purchase of digital media and digital assets. The method may include asking at least one user to provide a preselected list of products. The method may also include generating a recommended list of additional products using a machine-learning algorithm, where the machine-learning algorithm includes one of collaborative filtering algorithm, content-based filtering, desirable content model, personalized video game ranker, or knowledge based recommendation systems. The method may also include adding the recommended list of additional products to the preselected list of the at least one user to provide an augmented interest list to the at least one user. The method may also include asking the at least one user to establish parameters for automatic purchases based upon the augmented interest list. The method may further include automatically purchasing one or more products based upon the prices of the one or more products meeting the parameters.

  • Patent number: 10705252
    Abstract: A Paleo Event Table creator tool box is described which is induced and/or allows a user to spatially join a selected area of interest of the earth crust to one selected tectonic plate in a tectonic plate model, which selected tectonic plate has an overlap with the area of interest, and to sample a paleogeographic dataset relevant to the area of interest for a series of paleogeographic time steps. A graphical user interface is induced and/or allows the user to create a Paleo Event Table that displays the sampled paleogeographic dataset. The Paleo Event Table creator tool box is used for paleogeographic reconstruction of the earth crust in the area of interest and identifying information relevant for the area of interest.

  • Patent number: 7246741
    Abstract: Convenient, efficient, and cost-effective processing of a financial transaction. Banking customers can drop-off financial transaction requests at any of a plurality of geographically dispersed collection sites that operate on behalf of an expedited mail delivery service. Each collection site can aggregate received transaction requests into a package to be delivered to a transaction processing center via expedited mail delivery. Each transaction request can be contained within an envelope. Utilizing unique identifying insignias on each envelope and package, the location of each envelope and package can be tracked during the expedited mail delivery. Upon receipt, the transaction processing center can process each transaction request.
