  • Publication number: 20240115955
    Abstract: A machine learning model classifies points of interest in a parallel reality game hosted by a server. The server generates training data sets that include verified properties for points of interest. The machine learning model may predict unverified properties for points of interest. Players in the parallel reality game may input properties for the points of interest. The machine learning model use the received properties from players as inputs to the machine learning model to verify unverified properties or generate new properties for the points of interest. The server may classify the points of interest as suitable for particular activities, and the server may use the classifications for future activities within the parallel reality game.

  • Patent number: 11936799
    Abstract: A method for blockchain-based time stamping for digital signature is disclosed. The method includes two participants: a signer who signs a message, a verifier who verifies the message. In the method, the signer obtains hash values of a certain number of latest confirmed blocks in blockchain, binds these hash values and the message together to be a new message. The signer then generates a signature of the new message and inserts identification data of this signature and the new message into a transaction of blockchain. This method ensures that the generation time of the signature is prior to the generation time of the block which contains the signature and, at the same time, is after the generation time of the blocks whose hash values are included in the signature, which produces an accurate time interval for the digital signature.
