  • Patent number: 10534583
    Abstract: A method for automatically generating sample code for an API for payment processing in a payment network includes reading an acquirer processor-specific API for payment processing in a payment network using an acquirer processor-specific API reader, generating acquirer processor-specific API data using the acquirer processor-specific API reader, converting the acquirer processor-specific API data into a format compatible with an output generator, and generating language-specific sample code by the output generator using the converted acquirer processor-specific API data and a language-specific template.

  • Publication number: 20190278810
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for auto-generating subject suggestions are provided. For example, a set of n-grams are generated from text within an email body of an email being composed by a user and/or from descriptive information of attachments to the email. Features of the set of n-grams are identified, such as a date feature, a proper noun feature, an activity feature, a number of words feature, etc. Classifiers are used to assign probabilities to the n-grams based upon the features. A probability may specify a strength of an n-gram in relation to a user preference of the user for an email subject derived from the n-gram. In this way, an email subject suggestion is generated based upon a target n-gram with a probability exceeding a threshold. The email subject suggestion is provided to the user, such as during email composition or during sending of the email.

  • Patent number: 10154328
    Abstract: A surface-mountable MEMS microphone comprising a MEMS microphone die and an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) mounted inside a surface-mountable package housing, and fully enclosed therein. The surface-mountable package is a single, self-contained housing that provides an electrical interface to external circuitry for the enclosed MEMS microphone die and the ASIC, and provides electrical, physical, and environmental protection for the MEMS microphone die and the ASIC. The surface-mountable package allows external acoustic energy to enter the package interior via one or more acoustic ports and impinge on the diaphragm of the MEMS microphone die. The cover of the surface-mountable package comprises an acoustic port with ingress protection to limit dust and particle intrusion. The ingress protection can be a formed member that is part of the cover of the surface-mountable package having various shapes, an internal shield, or a combination of both a formed member and internal shield.
