Abstract: A system for issuing a dynamic temporary credential to a portable communication device for use in a transaction with an electronic control point. The system receives the current geo-location of the portable communication device and transmits a dynamic temporary credential to the portable communication device from the centralized computer. The system further scores the risk in authorizing a transaction associated with an electronic control point using the dynamic temporary credential it issued. The system may prevent the transmission of the dynamic temporary credential until the end user has been authenticated, which may include verifying one or more of a manually input passcode, the unique digital signature of the portable communication device, and know your customer queries.

Abstract: Virtual mobile rewards, gift cards, and/or physical world retailers' loyalty and reward programs are aggregated into a common account accessible and transactional from a radio device. Subscribers gain access to discounted codes, coupons, rebates, gift cards, and/or limited time offers, on their radio device for food, travel, lifestyle, electronics, and entertainment products that fit their lifestyle spending habits, enabling users to edit participating retailers, manage separate account balances, and present preferred discounted offers at retailers and apply discount towards purchase of goods.

Abstract: A device including a support (4) comprising a support base defining a spherical base contact surface, extending along a virtual sphere (S) and a circular rim extending in a rim plane; a first and a second needle mobile on the support between extracted and inserted positions in which the first and second needles are outside and maximally inserted in said virtual sphere, respectively, via first and second intermediate piercing positions in which, respectively, the first and second needles extend along first and second insertion axis and their tips are located on first and second insertion points belonging respectively to first and second hemispheres of the virtual sphere separated by a “median radial plane of the rim”, an angle (?) between the median radial plane and any insertion axis being between 70° and 110°.

Abstract: Techniques to be used in natural language understanding (NLU) are described. For example, a NLU service to receive a request to analyze a written or spoken utterance; tokenize the received utterance; generate one or more labels corresponding to a substring of the tokenized received utterance, each of the labels including one or more slot types, by: for each path of a grammar-based finite state transducer (FST) data structure that includes instructions, traversing the path as far as possible for matches from a previous breakpoint, while maintaining i) locations of branching points and snapshots at those branching points and ii) an indication of which paths have been traversed, and recording a result of each path traversal as a generated label; resolve the one or more generated labels into machine-readable values; and output a result is described.

Abstract: Techniques for resolving a label are described. For example, a method of generating one or more labels corresponding to a substring of a tokenized utterance, each of the labels including one or more slot types, resolving the one or more generated labels into machine-readable values by: generating a tree of the generated one or more labels, the graph including a plurality of leaf nodes, wherein each rule of associated with a leaf node references a resolver, and resolving the generated tree from the leaf nodes to a root of the generated tree, by at each node, calling the referenced resolver and passing a result from each resolver to a subsequent resolver of the tree; and outputting a result of the resolving to an entity as dictated by the request is described.

Abstract: Techniques for building slot types and slot type artifacts are described. For example, in some implementations, a natural language understanding (NLU) service is implemented by instructions that upon execution are to cause: receiving a request to build a slot type, the request including an indication of one or more locations storing information need to build a slot type, a slot type being a list of one or more values used to train a machine learning model to recognize a value for a slot; retrieving a slot type definition bundle associated with the request, the slot type definition bundle at least including a slot type definition defining resolution activities for the slot type; building the slot type using the retrieved slot type definition bundle; and storing into the storage slot type artifacts produced from building the slot type to be used during an analysis of an utterance.

Abstract: A system for providing first and second trusted applications diverse permission to communicate via a secure element. The system comprising first digital identifier and digital token operably associated with the first trusted application; a second digital identifier and digital token operably associated with the second trusted application. The system further includes a card services module that provides an application programming interface to the secure element supported by a secure data table including first and second sets of permissions. The card services module issues one or more commands to the secure element based on a first action requested by the first trusted application in conjunction with the presentation of the first digital token only if the one or more commands will not violate the first set of permissions. A method is also disclosed.

Abstract: A dearmer positioning system has two assemblies, each of which circumscribes a dearmer's barrel. Each of the two assemblies includes two half rings and a one-piece outer ring. The two half rings are joined to one another to define a full ring having a first central opening defining a first diameter. The full ring has a periphery defining a second diameter. The one-piece outer ring has a second central opening defining a third diameter, and a periphery defining a fourth diameter. The third diameter is greater than the second diameter such that the full ring slidingly fits in the central opening of the outer ring. Threaded fasteners engage the outer ring and extend radially through the outer ring and into its central opening to engage the periphery of the full ring.

Abstract: A system, methods, and apparatus for generating pattern recognition classifiers are disclosed. An example method includes identifying graphical objects within an image of a card object, for each identified graphical object: i) creating a bounding region encompassing the graphical object such that a border of the bounding region is located at a predetermined distance from segments of the graphical object, ii) determining pixels within the bounding region that correspond to the graphical object, iii) determining an origin of the graphical object based on an origin rule, iv) determining a text coordinate relative to the origin for each determined pixel, and v) determining a statistical probability that features are present within the graphical object, each of the features including at least one pixel having text coordinates and for each graphical object type, combining the statistical probabilities for each of the features of the identified graphical objects into a classifier data structure.

Abstract: A system for using a dynamic temporary credential with a portable communication device for use in a transaction with an electronic control point (e.g. point of sale, NFC access point) wherein the portable communication device has a geo-location module (e.g. GPS). The system has a centralized module that receives the portable communication device's current geo-location and transmits the dynamic temporary credential to the portable communication device and provides predictive transaction information—including the dynamic temporary credential and portable communication device's geo-location—to an authorization system operably associated with the electronic control point. The dynamic temporary credential has a predetermined time to live, which allows for the recycling of the dynamic credential, such recycling may take into account the geo-location for which the credential has been recently issued. A method for using a dynamic temporary credential with a portable communication device is also disclosed.
