  • Publication number: 20240368089
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are compounds and methods for educing the risk of developing, preventing, or treating graft versus host disease (GVHD) in a subject. The compounds can concurrently block Aurora kinase A and JAK2 signal transduction which synergistically suppresses alloreactive human T-cells in vitro, prevents xenogeneic graft-versus-host disease without impairing anti-tumor responses, and promotes the development and suppressive potency of CD39+ inducible Treg. In certain aspects, disclosed are compounds of Formula I-V.

  • Patent number: 11729180
    Abstract: Methods and systems for using block chain technology to verify transaction data are described herein. A computing platform may receive data about events related to transactions, personal or corporate information, supply chains, and other relevant information about a person or corporate entity. The event information may be received, aggregated, and processed to determine metadata about the person or corporate entity. The metadata may indicate, for example, a trustworthiness of the person or corporate entity for various purposes. Such event information and/or metadata may be stored as transactions in a block chain that may be accessible by counterparties to a potential transaction involving the person or corporate entity. The automated event processing computing platform may further use automated techniques to implement smart transactions between the person/entity and counterparty based on the trust metadata.

  • Patent number: 11520910
    Abstract: A system for classifying a data item to communicate to authorized users extracts features from the data item, where the features comprise a responsibility feature and a sensitivity feature. The responsibility feature indicates a job responsibility associated with the data item. The sensitivity feature indicates a sensitivity level of the data item. The system determines, based on the responsibility feature, that the data item belongs to a particular responsibility class. The system determines, based on the sensitivity feature, that the data item belongs to a particular sensitivity class. The system determines whether a user to whom the data item is directed belongs to the particular responsibility class and sensitivity class to which the data item belongs. The system sends the data item to the user, if is it determined that the user belongs to the particular responsibility class and sensitivity class to which the data item belongs.

  • Patent number: 10846485
    Abstract: A system, computer program product, and method are provided to automate a framework for knowledge graph based persistence of data, and to resolve temporal changes and uncertainties in the knowledge graph. Natural language understanding, together with one or more machine learning models (MLMs), is used to extract data from unstructured information, including entities and entity relationships. The extracted data is populated into a knowledge graph. As the KG is subject to change, the KG is used to create new and retrain existing machine learning models (MLMs). Weighting is applied to the populated data in the form of veracity value. Blockchain technology is applied to the populated data to ensure reliability of the data and to provide auditability to assess changes to the data.

  • Patent number: 10783052
    Abstract: Systems for dynamically controlling data transmissions are provided. In some examples, a system may receive data from one or more computer systems. Data associated with an event may be extracted and the extracted data may be compared to one or more machine learning datasets to determine a likelihood that an issue associated with a computer system may occur. The system may determine whether the likelihood is greater than a predetermined threshold. If so, a modification to avoid the potential issue or mitigate an impact may be identified. The modification may be transmitted to and executed by the computer system to modify one or more aspects of the computer system. In some examples, one or more efficiency modifications may be identified based on the comparison of the extracted data to the machine learning datasets. The identified efficiency modification may be transmitted to and executed by the computer system to modify one or more aspects of the computer system.
