Abstract: Disclosed embodiments may include a method for intelligent bookout discrepancy detection. The system may receive bookout data from an automotive dealer, which may include dealer-provided vehicle information that includes a dealer price and dealer-listed features. The system may identify a vehicle identification number from the dealer-provided vehicle information. The system may retrieve third-party vehicle information including at least one of a third-party price and third-party listed features from one or more third party sources using the vehicle identification number. The system may aggregate the third-party vehicle information from the one or more third party sources. The system may determine that a bookout discrepancy exists by comparing the dealer price to the third-party price and comparing dealer-listed features to third-party listed features. The system may flag a contract associated with the bookout data for further review.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for transferring control of vehicle information. A transfer system may be used to facilitate the transfer. The system may receive a first request for transferring an association of a vehicle from a first user to a second user. The transfer system may generate a first blockchain operation for transferring control of the cryptographic token from a first to second cryptography-based storage application associated with the first user and second user, respectively, wherein the first blockchain operation comprises the second address associated with the second cryptography-based storage application. The system may transmit the first blockchain operation for transferring control of the cryptographic token to the second cryptography-based storage application. In response to receiving an indication of successful blockchain operation from a blockchain node, the system may transmit a command to update first user identification data stored at a link.

Abstract: In some implementations, a system may receive, from an augmented reality (AR) device, a set of images captured during an AR session. The system may detect a plurality of features included in the set of images. The system may identify an item, from a list of items, that corresponds to the object based on at least one feature of the plurality of features. The list of items may identify one or more characteristics that are expected to correspond to the plurality of features. The system may identify one or more noncorresponding characteristics of the item based on determining that the one or more characteristics do not correspond to the plurality of features. The system may determine a noncorresponding value associated with the one or more noncorresponding characteristics and may provide an indication of the noncorresponding value associated with the one or more noncorresponding characteristics.

Abstract: In some implementations, a recommendation system may receive information related to a browser context associated with the client device. The recommendation system may generate a vehicle feature vector that includes an array of elements to represent a plurality of vehicle attributes. The recommendation system may apply a similarity model to the vehicle feature vector to determine a vehicle recommendation dataset that includes a plurality of vehicles that are each associated with a respective set of vehicle attributes. The recommendation system may filter the vehicle recommendation dataset based on a subset of the information related to the browser context associated with the client device that indicates a profile of a user associated with the client device. The recommendation system may provide information related to the vehicle recommendation dataset to the client device for display in an interface of the client device.

For example, a method can include identifying, by a network element, a capability of a repository to store data applicable to all user equipment devices in a network. The method can further include selecting, by the network element, the repository from a plurality of repositories based on the identified capability.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a computer-implemented method and system for immobilization of machines capable of moving are disclosed. The method for immobilization of machines capable of moving includes detecting an event by a tracking device; providing one or more rules to evaluate the detected event; evaluating the detected event using the one or more rules; and triggering an action type based on the outcome of the evaluation. The system for immobilization of machines capable of moving includes a machine capable of moving, a tracking device including at least one processor and logic, a starter relay and a fuel pump relay, wherein the tracking device detects an event; evaluates the detected event using one or more rules provided to evaluate the detected event; and triggers an action type based on the outcome of the evaluation.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a system for improved transactional mainframes, the system comprising a processor, a database, an application programming interface (API) module, and a transaction import module. The API module can be configured to: receive transaction data comprising a transaction type, a user identifier, one or more transaction card identifiers, and one or more fields associated with the transaction card identifiers; validate the transaction data using one or more of the stored validation rules associated with the one or more transaction card identifiers; generate one or more transaction cards; and store the transaction data and transaction cards to the database. The transaction import module can be configured to submit the transaction cards to the mainframe, view the status of submitted records, and enable retrying of transaction cards that failed to process.
