  • Patent number: 11880890
    Abstract: Siamese neural networks (SNN) are configured to detect differences between financial transactions for multiple financial institutions and transactions for a target party. A first neural network of the SNN tracks transactions (target transactions) for a particular customer or financial institution over time and provides a target output vector. Similarly, a second neural network of the SNN tracks transactions (baseline transactions) for all or a plurality of financial institutions (e.g., within a region) over the same period of time and provides a baseline output vector. The transactions for all or a plurality of financial institutions act as a baseline of transactions against which potentially fraudulent or money laundering activity may be compared. Because Siamese neural networks account for temporal changes based on the baseline of transactions, sudden changes in target transactions will only trigger an alarm if such changes (e.g., deviations or drifts) are relative to a baseline of transactions.

  • Patent number: 11838301
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes a system and method for predictive identification of breached entities. Identification number and expiration date pairs associated with compromised records in a source file are analyzed to identify a set of candidate entities having records at least partially matching the source file data pairs having events occurring during a selected time period. Probability vectors are calculated for records associated with each identified entity. A divergence value is calculated which represents a distance between probability distribution vectors for each entity and probability distribution vectors for the source file. A predicted breached entity is identified based on the divergence values. The predicted breached entity is notified of the predicted breach. The notification can include an identification of the breached entity, identification of breached records, predicted time of breach, and/or a recommendation to take action to mitigate the predicted breach.

  • Publication number: 20220222695
    Abstract: An artificial intelligence (AI)-based content communications system leverages microtrends identified from conversations in real-time to support targeted content mapped to the identified microtrends. The communications system receives conversation information of participants, including text of conversation, timestamp, and, optionally, geographical information, from a listening service authorized to capture the conversation information; determines one or more topic microtrends having above-threshold activity; retrieves content with tags having generated keywords associated with a corresponding topic microtrend; and generates a message comprising the content and, optionally, a topic microtrend dashboard to provide to an identified contact associated with the topic microtrend. In some cases, the content is directly pushed to a social media handle associated with the content.

  • Publication number: 20190279178
    Abstract: The invention provides systems, methods and computer program products for automated electronic payments in connection with goods or services received from one or more merchants. In an embodiment, the invention enables generation of a payment authorization decision in connection with an automated bill payment, wherein said payment authorization decision is based on a determined variance between (i) an estimate of charges derived from update related data notifications received by a user and (ii) charges identified in a bill received from the merchant. In another embodiment, the invention enables updating an enrollment state of a merchant that has been previously enrolled for automated bill payments by a user, wherein said update is implemented responsive to detecting a change in state of a contract between a user and a merchant, and wherein said change in state is detected based on update related data notifications received by a user.
