  • Publication number: 20250029072
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a reparability of a vehicle are provided. In some embodiments, vehicle data is obtained, and a list of variables is generated from the obtained data. A machine learning algorithm may then be trained to generate a reparability metric by: (i) generating correlation metrics between the variables and costs to repair the vehicle, (ii) removing variables with correlation metrics below a threshold, and (iii) training the machine learning algorithm based upon unremoved variables.

  • Patent number: 12190660
    Abstract: Systems and methods for building a vehicle data repository (VDR) are provided. In some embodiments, the VDR is constructed by adding standardized build sheets to it. The standardized build sheets may be constructed by selecting data from various data sources (e.g., original equipment manufacturer (OEM) databases, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) databases, Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) databases, and/or Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) databases). Furthermore, a common ontology may be created and applied to the various data sources to aide in the selection of data between the data sources to construct the standardized build sheets.

  • Publication number: 20230177892
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining the effectiveness of vehicle safety features are provided. Vehicle data is obtained for vehicles having various smart safety features, and a list of translated vehicle build records is generated from the obtained data applying OEM-agnostic terminology for the smart safety features. A machine learning algorithm may be trained to generate an effectiveness score associated with one or more smart safety features, at least by analyzing a plurality of translated vehicle build records, vehicle telematics data, and vehicle accident records associated with each of the plurality of vehicles.

  • Patent number: 10826895
    Abstract: A system and method for enabling user session persistence between a native application and a mobile internet browser on a mobile device. The method includes authenticating a use of the native application and issuing an authentication token to the native application. The method also includes receiving from the native application the authentication token in connection with a destination address and obtaining first identifying data regarding the mobile device. The method further includes generating a key; associating the key, the authentication token, the destination address, and the first identifying data regarding the mobile device together in a database; encrypting the key to generate an encrypted key; and transmitting the encrypted key to the native application. The native application passes the encrypted key and the client key to the internet browser.
