Abstract: A flexible advance system allows users to request and receive advances instantly. The flexible advance system facilitates intra-system transfers between a third-party entity and employee accounts at a third-party system by generating and providing funding instructions to the third-party entity. Funding instructions include a funding amount that the flexible advance system predicts using one or more machine-learned models that account for seasonality and time delays. In executing the instructions from the flexible advance system, the third-party entity transfers funds to its entity account with the third-party system based on the funding amount. Once the flexible advance system receives an indication that the third-party entity has executed the instructions, the flexible advance system authorizes users of the flexible advance system to request short-term advances.

Abstract: A computer assesses device log entries. The computer receives a training log entry and an input log entry from a log entry corpus. The computer determines for the training log entry, status indicators respective to the group of log entries, The indicators are based on processing the training log entry with a group of unsupervised Machine Learning models calibrated to identify outliers. The computer assigns an outlier status based on the processing to the training log entry. The computer trains a supervised ML learning model with a data pair of the training log entry and an associated data label representing the assigned outlier status value. The computer processes the input log entry with the supervised ML model to predict an input log classification, and the log classification indicates whether the input log is anomaly. The computer generates an input log entry assessment report including the input log entry classification.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of crosslinking protein fibers, including wool fibers, by (i) providing a crosslinking agent including an oxidized sugar mixture having a plurality of different oxidized sugars of different molecular lengths and having at least two aldehyde groups (e.g., oxidized soy flour sugars); and (ii) infiltrating a plurality of non-crosslinked protein fibers with the crosslinking agent under conditions effective to cause protein molecules contained in the non-crosslinked protein fibers to become crosslinked. This method yields a population of crosslinked protein fibers, where the protein molecules of the non-crosslinked protein fibers include amine groups that react with the aldehyde groups of the oxidized sugars to achieve the crosslinking of the protein molecules to yield the crosslinked protein fibers.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, lookup, insertion, and deletion operations are allowed to continue during actions required for collision remediation. When relocation operations are used to resolve a collision, information encoded in header portions of the hash table entries that store the key-value pairs indicates when the associated key-value pairs are undergoing relocation. This information facilitates continued access to the RKVS during the relocation process by allowing other processes that access the RKVS to handle relocations without failure. Furthermore, when hash table expansion is needed in order to resolve a collision, a second, larger, hash table is allocated, and lookup operations continue on both the old hash table and the new hash table. One or more embodiments further prevent insertion, lookup, and deletion failures in the RKVS using flags, encoded in header information in hash table entries, that reflect the state of the respective key-value pairs in the store.
