  • Publication number: 20190272171
    Abstract: Improved techniques for asynchronously displaying the results of a codebase analysis service are provided herein. Initially, machine learning is applied to a corpus of model code. In doing so, a machine learning model is generated, where the model identifies coding practices that are included in the corpus of model code. After this model is generated, then the model is applied to a current codebase by comparing coding practices of the current codebase to the identified coding practices that were extracted, or rather identified, from the corpus of model code. Then, in response to detecting one or more differences between the current codebase's coding practices and the identified coding practices, where the differences satisfy a pre-determined difference threshold, a user interface is caused to display one or more insights. These insights beneficially provide additional detailed information describing the differences.

  • Publication number: 20190213674
    Abstract: Disclosed is an approach for dynamic loan origination that separates objectively easy-to-approve loan applicants suitable for automated, streamlined, and fast-tracked loan origination for real-time loan approval (which comprise the majority of loan applications) from applicants that may be declined or may require special consideration for approval or decline (for which traditional non-real-time loan origination processes are better suited). In operation, the separation of the objectively easy approvals from the possible disapproval may be performed by a third-party non-lending pre-origination provider that is distinct and separate from a lender.

  • Publication number: 20180369562
    Abstract: An antiseptic cap and packaging for use with a connector are provided. The antiseptic cap includes a material containing an antiseptic solution. Upon application of the cap to the connector, the material compresses thereby releasing the antiseptic solution. Packaging of the antiseptic cap typically includes a cap holder and a lid. A user could remove the cap from the cap holder before applying it to a connector. Alternatively, the cap holder may be used to apply the cap to the connector.

  • Patent number: 10158733
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for tracking usage of applications on a mobile device that includes a virtual private network (VPN) application. The VPN application includes a rule dictionary to store a rule for each application that is executable on the mobile device. A rule comprises an identifier for the application and an associated regular expression. To create a rule, a new application is installed on the mobile device and executed to create network traffic. The network traffic from the new application is inspected and a regular expression that matches the new application is created and stored in the rules dictionary. Once the rule is stored, a usage of the application can be identified based on monitoring the network traffic and searching the rule dictionary to identify a matching application. Once a matching application is found, the usage metric of the application is updated.

  • Publication number: 20180336542
    Abstract: A Person-to-person payments method and system may include receiving a request from a computer network to transfer funds from a first account to a second account, almost instantly. An alias (mobile number or email) is received and is associated with the second account and checked against a database. If the alias exists, multiple options may apply for transferring funds. Next, a secure party identifier is generated and the transfer may be completed. A Payments Switch Module may also communicate with a Third Party Payment Service Provider a request from a Sending or Receiving Financial Institution or party, to send or receive funds from a specific account held by the Third Party Payment Service Provider. This may occur on an adhoc, automatic, or scheduled basis enabling management of ‘personal cash concentration.’ This feature with the Third Party Payment Service Provider be characterized as a “Bring it Home” feature of the system.

  • Publication number: 20180322525
    Abstract: A system determines attribution of an application install on a mobile device that includes a virtual private network (VPN) application. An application executing on a mobile device may display a third party application advertisement. The VPN application detects a click on the third party application advertisements by monitoring the network requests and records a display time of the advertisement. Further, it detects the download and installation of the third party application by monitoring the network requests and comparing it against a rule from the rules dictionary, and records the installation time of the third party application. If the installation time is within a predetermined threshold time of the display time of the third party application advertisement, an attribution count is updated and is reported to an analytics engine.
