  • Patent number: 11341515
    Abstract: Sensor data analysis may include obtaining video data, detecting facial data within the video data, extracting the facial data from the video data, detecting indicator data within the video data, extracting the indicator data from the video data, transforming the extracted facial data into representative facial data, and determining a mood of the person by associating learned mood indicators derived from other detected facial data with the representative facial data. The analysis may include determining that the representative facial data is associated with a complex profile, and determining a context regarding the person within the environment by weighting and processing the determined mood, at least one subset of data representing information about the person of the complex profile, and the indicator data. The analysis may include determining a user experience for the person, and communicating the determined user experience to a device associated with the person.

  • Patent number: 11263640
    Abstract: The CLOUD SERVICE FACILITATOR APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“CSF”) transforms user purchase requests, refund requests, and product/service replacement requests via CSF components into transaction records, refunds, and replacement products/services outputs. The CSF may receive a consumer purchase request for a cloud service from a merchant. In response to the request, the CSF may generate a unique record key for the purchase and may transmit the unique record key to the merchant. The CSF may further receive additional transaction information and the unique record key from the merchant. In response to the received information and the unique key, the CSF may provide additional service to the merchant or the consumer.

  • Patent number: 11182675
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for creating and training neural networks. The method includes collecting a set of signals from a database; applying a transform to each signal to create a modified set of signals, wherein signals of the modified set of signals are wavelets; iteratively, for each of a subset of the modified signals: training the neural network using a modified signal of the subset by adding at least one node to the neural network in response to an error function of an analysis of the modified signal exceeding a threshold; removing nodes from the neural network with activation rates below an activation rate threshold; and grouping each node into a lobe among a plurality of lobes, wherein nodes belonging to a lobe have a common characteristic.

  • Publication number: 20210295315
    Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes generating an initial key after interacting with an access device, storing the initial key at a key storage location, altering the initial key with a public key to form an altered key, and sending the altered key to a server computer along with an identifier for the access device. The altered key is changed to the initial key at the server computer and is stored with the identifier in a database in operative communication with the server computer. The initial keys that are stored at the key storage location and in the database are used to alter and restore transaction data associated with multiple financial transactions that are conducted using the access device.

  • Publication number: 20210233046
    Abstract: In order to make it more difficult to obtain numbers that can be used to conduct fraudulent transactions, a portion of a real account number is encrypted. The encrypted portion of the account number is used to generate a new account number, a new expiration date, and a new verification value. This information can be determined using processor that may reside in a point of sale terminal, a smart card, or a computer operated by a user. The new account number, the new expiration date, and the new verification value can be used in a payment transaction. A server computer in a central payment processing network may determine that the new account information is not the real account information, and may subsequently generate a modified authorization request message using the real account information and may send it to an issuer for approval. The transmission of data is more secure, since real account information is not sent from the merchant to the payment processing network.

  • Patent number: 11036824
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for detecting and identifying anomalies within a discrete wavelet database. In one implementation, the system may include one or more memories storing instructions and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions. The instructions may include instructions to receive a new wavelet, convert the net transaction to a wavelet, convert the wavelet to a tensor using an exponential smoothing average, calculate a difference field between the tensor and a field having one or more previous transactions represented as tensors, perform a weighted summation of the difference field to produce a difference vector, apply one or more models to the difference vector to determine a likelihood of the new wavelet representing an anomaly, and add the new wavelet to the field when the likelihood is below a threshold.

  • Patent number: 11036681
    Abstract: The MULTI-SOURCE, MULTI-DIMENSIONAL, CROSS-ENTITY, MULTIMEDIA ANALYTICAL MODEL SHARING DATABASE PLATFORM APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“AMSDB”) transform data aggregated from various computer resources using AMSDB components into updated entity profiles and/or social graphs. In one implementation, the AMSDB aggregates data records including search results, purchase transaction data, service usage data, service enrollment data, and social data. The AMSDB identifies data field types within the data records and their associated data values. From the data field types and their associated data values, the AMSDB identifies an entity. The AMSDB generates correlations of the entity to other entities identifiable from the data field types and their associated data values. The AMSDB also associates attributes to the entity by drawing inferences related to the entity from the data field types and their associated data values.

  • Patent number: 11023886
    Abstract: The UNIVERSAL ELECTRONIC PAYMENT APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“UEP”) transform touchscreen inputs into a virtual wallet mobile application interface via UEP components into purchase transaction triggers and receipt notices. In one implementation the UEP provides, via a user device, a product information search request; and obtains, in response to the product information search request, information on a first product for sale by a first merchant and a second product for sale by a second merchant. The UEP generates a single purchase transaction request, using the information on the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant. The UEP provides, via the user device, the single purchase transaction request for payment processing. Also, the UEP obtains an electronic purchase receipt for the first product for sale by the first merchant and the second product for sale by the second merchant.

  • Publication number: 20210133733
    Abstract: A technique for improving the security of a portable consumer device may include storing a first account identifier and a second account identifier associated with the first account identifier, the second account identifier and the first account identifier being associated with the same account on the portable consumer device. When the portable consumer device is interacting with a reader device to conduct a transaction, the portable consumer device may determine whether the transaction is a proximity transaction by sensing whether a wireless interrogation signal is being transmitted from the reader device, and determine which of the first account identifier and the second account identifier to provide to the reader device based on whether the transaction is a proximity transaction.

  • Publication number: 20210109599
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein are for transmitting a command to a remote system. A processing system determines the identity of the user based on the unique identifier and the biometric information. Thereafter, a sensor detects a gesture performed by the user. The sensor is configured to detect the gesture performed by the user when the user is located within the detectable range of the wireless antenna. The processing system determines an action associated with the detected gesture based on the identity of the user and sends a command to a remote computer system to cause it to perform the action associated with the detected gesture.
