Publication number: 20230196315Abstract: Machine learning-based techniques are described that enable determining an optimal timing schedule for retries of a failed event such as a failed payment transaction. A payment retry optimization machine learning model is trained using ground-truth payment outcome data to obtain a trained model configured to identify an optimal timing schedule for one or more retries of a failed payment transaction based on various inputs including a time of the failed payment transaction, a set of payment attributes, an overall payment retry period, and a maximum number of retries to be attempted.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Maria Nicoletta Sooklaris, Dashiell Stander, Alvin Gordon Beyerlein, III, Daniel Piotr Chudy, Cameron Robert Lockhart

Patent number: 11491408Abstract: A bogie configured to move along a track of an amusement ride includes two first lateral wheels, on each side of a vertical center plane of the bogie, for rolling along a run of the track. A second lateral wheel is mounted on each side of the vertical center plane and is movable perpendicular to the vertical center plane between a first position proximate the vertical plane and a second position spaced-away from the vertical plane. The bogie also includes a mechanism that provides a force to normally bias the second wheel toward the first position. The mechanism is configured such that the magnitude of the provided force increases with increasing separation between the second lateral wheel on one side of the vertical center plane and the second lateral wheel on the other side of the vertical center plane.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2020Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Inventors: Richard Martin, Jeffrey Beaudin, Robert Lockhart, William Nathaniel McNair, Derek Coopman, Brian Richard Gill, David Anthony Barlow, David Roy
