Publication number: 20250037209Abstract: A transaction model of a general model generates a target transaction vector for a target transaction record. The general model also generates account vectors for accounts. A match score is generated between the account vectors and the transaction vector. The general model selects a first account identifier of an account using the match score. The transaction model also generates historical transaction vectors for historical transaction records. Further, a comparison score is generated between the historical transaction vectors and the target transaction vector. A second account identifier of an historical transaction is selected according to the comparison score. One of the first account identifier and the second account identifier is selected as the account identifier for the transaction record, and the transaction record is stored with the account identifier.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Applicant: Intuit Inc.Inventors: Lei PEI, Juan LIU, Ruobing LU, Ying SUN, Heather Elizabeth SIMPSON, Nhung HO

Patent number: 11816544Abstract: The present disclosure provides a composite machine learning system for a transaction labeling service. A transaction labeling service receives at least one descriptive string describing a transaction associated with a user. The service identifies a preliminary grouping from a generalized scheme. The service extracts a set of N-grams from the descriptive string and converts the N-grams and the preliminary grouping into a set of features. A machine learning model determines a label from a labeling scheme for the transaction based on the features. User input related to the label includes an accuracy indicator and a reliability indicator. If the reliability indicator satisfies a reliability condition, a set of training data for the machine learning model is updated based on the descriptive string and the label. The machine learning model is then trained against the updated set of training data.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: INTUIT, INC.Inventors: Yu-Chung Hsiao, Lei Pei, Meng Chen, Nhung Ho
