Publication number: 20240037655Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to machine learning based automated management of a user account. A computing platform may determine, via a computing device and based on historical user activity of a user, a pattern of the user activity. Subsequently, the computing platform may detect a deviation from the pattern of the user activity. Then, the computing platform may identify an anticipated transaction of the user. Then, the computing platform may retrieve, from a repository of user data, one or more user-defined preference rules associated with the anticipated transaction. Then, the computing platform may determine whether the one or more preference rules apply to one or more attributes of the anticipated transaction. Subsequently, the computing platform may trigger, based on a determination that the one or more preference rules apply to the one or more attributes of the anticipated transaction, an action associated with the anticipated transaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Siten Sanghvi, Morgan S.

Publication number: 20230105544Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a decision model to open and close enterprise facilities. A computing platform may receive one or more attributes associated with an operation of an enterprise facility. Subsequently, the computing platform may identify, based on the one or more attributes, a business operation rule for the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may determine, based on the one or more attributes and the business operation rule, an operational parameter for the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may compare the operational parameter to a threshold parameter, where the threshold parameter may be indicative of whether to keep the enterprise facility open for business. Then, the computing platform may, upon a determination that the operational parameter fails to exceed the threshold parameter, determine to temporarily close the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may redistribute user traffic to one or more open customer resource facilities.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventors: Stephen T.
