  • Patent number: 12026694
    Abstract: Authentication methods and systems using RFID-enabled payment cards are disclosed herein where a server receives a request corresponding to authorization of a payment associated with a payment card from an electronic terminal. The server identifies an electronic device of a user associated with the payment card. The server then transmits an instruction to the electronic device to cause an RFID reader of the electronic device to determine whether an RFID tag corresponding to the payment card is located within a predetermined proximity to the electronic device. When the payment card is located within the predetermined proximity, the server executes a first authentication protocol. Moreover, when the payment card is not located within the predetermined proximity, the server executes a second authentication protocol, wherein the second authentication protocol is more restrictive than the first authentication protocol.

  • Publication number: 20240211804
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to systems, methods, and computing devices for managing the processing and execution of machine learning classifiers across a variety of platforms. Machine classifiers can be developed to process a variety of input datasets. In several embodiments, a variety of transformations can be performed on raw data to generate the input datasets. The raw data can be obtained from a disparate set of data sources each having its own data format. The generated input datasets can be formatted using a common data format and/or a data format specific for a particular machine learning classifier. A sequence of machine learning classifiers to be executed can be determined and the machine learning classifiers can be executed on one or more computing devices to process the input datasets. The execution of the machine learning classifiers can be monitored and notifications can be transmitted to various computing devices.

  • Publication number: 20240171831
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for algorithmically editing digital video content is disclosed. A video file containing source video is processed to extract metadata. Label taxonomies are applied to extracted metadata. The labelled metadata is processed to identify higher-level labels. Identified higher-level labels are stored as additional metadata associated with the video file. A clip generating algorithm applies the stored metadata for selectively editing the source video to generate a plurality of different candidate video clips. Responsive to determining a clip presentation trigger on a viewer device, a clip selection algorithm is implemented that applies engagement data and metadata for the candidate video clips to select one of the stored candidate video clips. The engagement data is representative of one or more engagement metrics recorded for at least one of the stored candidate video clips. The selected video clip is presented to one or more viewers via corresponding viewer devices.
