  • Patent number: 12293391
    Abstract: A system for automatic categorization and assessment of billing narratives has a semantic engine that classifies billing entries with descriptions expressed in natural language into standardized categories of activity and task objective. The classification is by machine learning methods via training data that is maintained, updated and extended as needed. A rules engine applies rules to the categorized invoice data to analyze the data, report violations to a user/consumer of billed services and to perform related calculations.

  • Publication number: 20250131422
    Abstract: A method of exchanging cryptographic keys capable of providing users with a keyed encryption mechanism for secure communication that bypasses the vulnerabilities of a commonly known public key. In response to concerns about the ability of quantum computing to trivialize the once secure public key encryption methods, the present invention uses non-trusted third parties to exchange grouped encryption keys instead of reliance on a public key. The present invention operates by generating an ordered set of keys and storing them on common authentication servers which function as intermediaries. The recipient is able to retrieve the keys by leveraging the common servers' authentication. The key is unique to each transaction and no parties other than the sender and receiver will generally be able to access the entirety of the necessary keys to decrypt the underlying information.

  • Publication number: 20250068688
    Abstract: Described herein is a system for providing access to a virtual assistant using a hidden element in source code of a document. The system can receive a request from a computing device to access a document, which has source code that includes a first set of characters embedded at its beginning. The first set of characters may only be accessible by an accessibility engine design to render data describing a document for individuals with visual impairments. When the accessibility engine parses the first set of characters, the computing device outputs content indicating that the individual can access the virtual assistant by performing an interaction. When the computing device detects the interaction, the computing device invokes the virtual assistant to guide the individual through the document.

  • Publication number: 20240373324
    Abstract: A wireless telecommunication network is configured to scale and transition usage limits of network services for subscriber devices connected thereto. For an intermediate time period following a subscriber failing to satisfy a service condition related to the network services, the wireless telecommunication network partially limits an Internet Protocol (IP) network connectivity service for subscriber devices associated with the subscriber using a firewall. In particular, the wireless telecommunication network configures the firewall to redirect Domain Name System (DNS) queries from the subscriber devices to whitelisted webpages of a quarantine IP domain. The whitelisted webpages are configured to enable users of the subscriber devices to resolve the subscriber's failure to satisfy the service condition.

  • Publication number: 20240372788
    Abstract: Operation and management of a wireless telecommunication network is improved via reducing and preventing service condition faults by subscribers. Service condition faults occur when a subscriber fails to satisfy service conditions or requirements for receiving network services provided by the wireless telecommunication network. Service conditions faults can be intelligently reduced or prevented based on adjusting network service parameters or configurations for a subscriber in a manner that reduces a magnitude and/or volume of service conditions for the subscriber. A wireless telecommunication network implements a machine learning (ML) model that uses subscriber-specific data to classify a recurrence likelihood of the subscriber and a service condition fault, and based on the classification, select modified network service parameters or configurations to implement specifically for the subscriber.

  • Publication number: 20240373404
    Abstract: A wireless telecommunication network is configured to provide enhanced subscriber messaging to subscriber devices related to predicted changes to network service access. Network service changes are predicted based on events that are published in a network event queue, with certain events indicating a failure of a subscriber to meet service subscription requirements. A notification subsystem of the wireless telecommunication network, in response to detecting the certain events, causes notifications to be displayed on multiple subscriber devices of the subscriber. The display of notifications on subscriber devices is remotely controlled by the notification subsystem. For example, the notifications are persistently displayed irrespective of user input until a specific command to dismiss the notifications is transmitted by the notification subsystem. The notifications can also be dynamically escalated based on proximity to the predicted network service change.

  • Publication number: 20200082923
    Abstract: Systems and methods of monitoring medication compliance are provided. A first node receives from a second node a picture of a pill bottle label and a picture of the number of pills in the pill bottle. The information on the label is predicted from the picture of the pill bottle. The medication and number of pills is predicted from the picture of the number of pills. Information associated with compliance to the dosage regimen of the medication is determined based on the predicted number of pills and the dosage regimen. The second node sends to the first node an indication of the information associated with the medication compliance.

  • Patent number: 10140660
    Abstract: Systems and methods for enforcing compliance with fiduciary responsibilities related to the administration of a retirement plan are disclosed. The systems and methods include accessing compliance requirements corresponding to the fiduciary responsibilities related to administration of the retirement plan by a fiduciary. Upon accessing the requirements, compliance tasks are extracted in an example implementation. Once compliance tasks are extracted from the requirements, due dates for the compliance tasks are determined based on dates associated with the compliance requirements, or in some examples based on date chosen by a fiduciary. The compliance tasks are then stored in a database, in an example. The systems and methods then monitor the one or more compliance tasks and send alerts based on monitored activities. Finally, in an example implementation, responses to the alerts are tracked to determine whether any follow up action needs to be triggered.

  • Publication number: 20100088245
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for developing studies such as clinical trials, including computer-assisted recruitment or selection of patients, clinical trial investigators, facilities, or clinical trial study sites. In certain examples, computer-processing of physician records scores physicians potential investigators, as determined from at least one physician characteristic, and the physician's proximity to the nearest clinical trial study site. Clinical trial study sites are also scored. In certain examples, at least one physician characteristic is used to score potential clinical trial study sites. Processes for engaging physicians and their patients in clinical trial studies are also described. Suitable patients can be contacted through their physicians or other caregivers to participate in the clinical trial study.
