Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to implement a recurring payment collection system for extending current quick response (QR) code payment methods to collect recurring payments from a customer. The recurring payment collection system sends a notification to the customer that a recurring payment is due in response to a recurring payment event occurring. The recurring payment collection system obtains a QR code for the recurring payment in response to the customer acknowledging the notification. The recurring payment collection system utilizes the QR code to request the recurring payment from a payment system. The recurring payment collection system acknowledges that the recurring payment has been made in responsive to the recurring payment being processed by the payment system.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for masking identifying traits contained in response text is provided. Embodiments may include receiving a request to anonymize response text in response to a predefined respondent interaction, wherein the response text is generated by the respondent and then obtaining the response text, wherein the obtained response text has semantic characteristics. Next, the obtained response text may be input into a natural language processing (NLP) algorithm and thereafter receiving an alternative masking text as output from the NLP algorithm, wherein the received alternative masking text maintains the semantic characteristics of the obtained response text. Finally, the response text may be replaced with the received alternative masking text.

Abstract: A harvesting supply chain logistics system for coordinating the harvest and transport of crops from multiple food producers. The system receives first crop data of a first crop grown at a first location by a first food producer. The system predicts a first harvesting time and a first harvesting amount of the first crop. The system receives second crop data of a second crop grown at a second location by a second food producer. The system predicts a second harvesting time and a second harvesting amount of the second crop. The system determines whether a transport for the first crop and the second crop can be combined based on the first harvesting time, first harvesting amount, the second harvesting time, and the second harvesting amount. The system schedules a combine transport of the first crop and the second crop when the first crop and the second crop can be combined.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for preventing scams in commerce transactions. The computer system identifies a critical decision-making process of a user in a commerce transaction that involves exposing personal data. The computer system receives current stress factors of the user. The computer system calculates a current stress score of the user, based on the current stress factors, by using a machine learning model that correlates behavioral patterns of the user and stress levels of the user. The computer system determines an abnormal level of the current stress score, based on predetermined thresholds for different abnormal scores. The computer system determines a privacy protection level in the critical decision-making process, based on the abnormal level. The computer system takes an action for preventing scams in the commerce transaction, based on the privacy protection level.
