Abstract

A method for providing social network payments includes receiving a request to make a payment. The request is associated with a social network payer and a social network payee. It is determined that the social network payer is associated with a first payment provider identifier and an authorization token, and a second payment provider identifier for the social network payee is then retrieved using the authorization token. An instruction to make a payment from the social network payer to the social network payee is then transmitted to a payment service provider. The instruction includes a payment amount, the first payment provider identifier, and the second payment provider identifier. A payment alert is also adapted for a payee social network associated with the social network payee, and the payment alert is send to a social network provider device associated with the payee social network.

Abstract

A payment button on a device capable of making telephone calls, such as a mobile phone, allows a payer to electronically transfer money while in a phone call with a payee. The payment button also allows a payee to initiate an electronic payment transaction while in a phone call with a payer. The payment button may be a clickable or tappable virtual button presented on a display of the phone when being used to make or receive a call. The payer or the payee can simply enter a payment amount on the phone to complete an electronic payment transaction. A notification of payment is instantly transmitted to the phones being used for the phone call, so that the parties can safely and conveniently conclude a purchase and/or payment transaction during one phone call.

Abstract

Systems and methods for smart cloud caching using edge computing and real-time customer journey insights are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system identifies a trend in communications received by a first edge cloud server, wherein each communication corresponds to a customer journey comprising user action steps performed in a client application. The system determines which user action steps cause API invocations to non-edge cloud servers and generates a sequence of API invocations in an order associated with the sequence of user action steps of the customer journey. The sequence of API invocations may be chained and/or bundled and stored in a cache for replication at edge cloud servers. The system may determine that the trend is pervasive in a geographical location based on satisfaction of a criteria, and replicate the cached sequence of API invocations at a cache of a second edge cloud server that services the geographical location.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for reducing computer power consumption and speeding system response times by dynamically generating and deploying one or more small language models (SLMs) to facilitate automated interactions with users. A context is derived for a chat session based on an utterance submitted by the user and other contextual information associated with the chat session. A SLM is generated specifically for the chat session based on the context. The SLM can be generated by extracting one or more portions of an internal structure of a large language model (LLM), or by merging two or more pre-generated SLMs. The SLM is deployed to generate content for the chat session. When it is detected that the context has changed, the SLM can be updated by incorporating additional parameters from the LLM to continue facilitating automated interactions with the user during the chat session.

Abstract

Methods and systems described herein improve blockchain storage operations in a variety of environments. A blockchain compression system may determine that a blockchain compression condition associated with a blockchain having a first plurality of blocks has been satisfied. In response, the system compresses the first plurality of blocks using a first hash tree into a first root hash value and stores the first plurality of blocks in a first database. The blockchain compression system generates a first new era genesis block that includes the first root hash value and a first database address of the first database at which the first plurality of blocks are stored. The blockchain compression system stores the blockchain at one or more nodes in a blockchain network. The blockchain includes the first new era genesis block and any previous new era genesis blocks. This may effectively reduce storage requirements for the blockchain, in various embodiments.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing automated online chat assistance in an online chat session. One or more utterances transmitted from a user device of a user via the online chat session are obtained. The one or more utterances are provided to a first prediction model to predict an intent of a user. If it is determined that the first prediction model is unable to predict the intent of the user based on the one or more utterances, the one or more utterances are provided to a second prediction model. After predicting the intent of the user by the second prediction model, the intent is used by a chat robot to provide a dialogue with the user via the online chat session.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for reducing computer power consumption and speeding system response times by dynamically generating and deploying one or more small language models (SLMs) to facilitate automated interactions with users. A context is derived for a chat session based on an utterance submitted by the user and other contextual information associated with the chat session. A SLM is generated specifically for the chat session based on the context. The SLM can be generated by extracting one or more portions of an internal structure of a large language model (LLM), or by merging two or more pre-generated SLMs. The SLM is deployed to generate content for the chat session. When it is detected that the context has changed, the SLM can be updated by incorporating additional parameters from the LLM to continue facilitating automated interactions with the user during the chat session.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing a multi-party computation (MPC) framework for dynamically configuring, deploying, and utilizing an MPC system for performing distributed computations. Based on device attributes and network attributes associated with computer nodes that are available to be part of the MPC system, a configuration for the MPC system is determined. The configuration may specify a total number of computer nodes within the MPC system, a minimum number of computer nodes required to participate in performing a computation process, a key distribution mechanism, and a computation processing mechanism. Encryption keys are generated and distributed among the computer nodes based on the key distribution mechanism. Upon receiving a request for performing the computation, updated network attributes are obtained. The configuration of the MPC system is dynamically modified based on the updated network attributes, and the MPC system performs the computations according to the modified configuration.

Abstract

Latency, response times, and efficiency improvements for data querying are provided herein, particularly in the context of querying large database systems and data tables from disparate data sources. There are provided systems and methods for automatic query and data retrieval optimization through procedural generation of data tables from query patterns. A service provider may utilize different computing services for query processing and data retrieval for different applications and services used by internal and/or external users. Instead of querying large database systems and numerous data tables, pre-aggregated data tables may instead be used and searched by procedurally generating such tables based on precomputation rules and query patterns. Once patterns have been identified in queries, corresponding data may be aggregated from data sources in a pre-aggregated data table. Query optimization rules may then be used to have these data tables queried in place of their original sources.

Abstract

In disclosed techniques a system generates, using a generative model, current synthetic communications, including inputting conditions for the synthetic communications into the trained generative model. The system generates the trained generative model by iteratively performing multiple operations until a discriminator of the generative model determines that synthetic communications output by the generative model satisfy a difference threshold. The operations include: generating, by a generator of the generative model, based on existing communications, a training synthetic communications, determining, by the discriminator of the generative model, differences between the existing communications and the training synthetic communications, and updating the generator based on the differences. Using the current synthetic communications and the existing communications, the system trains another model to evaluate newly initiated communications. The disclosed data synthesis techniques may advantageously enable discovery of concealed patterns, which in turn improves detection of processing systems that execute models trained on the synthetic data.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for a computing framework for enforcement of data privacy consent through device fingerprints. A service provider, including an electronic transaction processor, may provide consent management and enforcement through device fingerprints server-side in place of using device-side cookies or other data. When a device interacts with a service provider and provides or generates user data, the user of the device may opt-in to consenting to share or use that user data for targeted content and/or personalized services. The device may be fingerprinted using unique device parameters and a fingerprinting algorithm to generate a unique device identifier. User segments may then be built for the user based on the user data and to hide or obfuscate the user data. The device fingerprint may then be shared with the user segments so that when the device is further detected, targeted content and personalization may be provided.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for scenario-based decisioning by machine learning models for data processing retry success. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may detect a failure of data processing for a transaction or other request when processed with a data processing system. In order to minimize cost and wasted resources for retrying transactions that are likely to further fail, machine learning models may be implemented that generates a predictive score for whether a failed transaction is likely to be successful if retried with the data processing system. This may be done when the transactions are received or detected, which may occur prior to failures, for different scenario-based decisioning. Scenarios for failures may be processed by the models with different retry strategies and a predictive score may be used to predict a probability of success of the retry.

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed relating to the execution of machine learning models on client devices, particularly in the context of transaction risk evaluation. This reduces computational burden on server systems. In various embodiments, a server system may receive, from a client device, a request to perform a first operation and select a first machine learning model, from a set of machine learning models, to send to the client device. In some embodiments the first machine learning model is executable, by the client device, to generate model output data for the first operation based on one or more encrypted input data values that are encrypted with a cryptographic key inaccessible to the client device. The server system may send the first machine learning model to the client device and then receive, from the client device, a response message that indicates whether the first operation is authorized based on the model output data.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing a data control framework that enables storing, sharing, and transferring of data in a secure manner. Data files stored in data repositories are scanned. Content associated with different section of each data file is analyzed, and each section is tagged with a sensitivity level based on the content and a subject matter derived for the data file. Each data file is also assigned to a clearance classification based on an expected viewer of the data file. When sections from a first data file is being transferred to a second data file, a data control mechanism is triggered. If a particular section from the first data file is incompatible with the second data file, the data control mechanism may prevent the particular section from being transferred to the second data file, while allowing the remaining sections being transferred to the second data file.

Movement data associated with different locations of the pointing device within the GUI is obtained. The movement data is mapped to functional areas corresponding to a range of the different locations of the pointing device within the GUI over consecutive time intervals. At least one vector representing a sequence of movements for at least one trajectory of the pointing device through one or more of the functional areas and a duration the pointing device stays within each functional area is generated. At least one trained machine learning model is used to determine whether the sequence of movements of the pointing device was produced through human interaction with the pointing device by an actual user of the user device.

Abstract

Latency, response times, and efficiency improvements for data querying are provided herein, particularly in the context of querying large database systems and data tables from disparate data sources. There are provided systems and methods for automatic query and data retrieval optimization through procedural generation of data tables from query patterns. A service provider may utilize different computing services for query processing and data retrieval for different applications and services used by internal and/or external users. Instead of querying large database systems and numerous data tables, pre-aggregated data tables may instead be used and searched by procedurally generating such tables based on precomputation rules and query patterns. Once patterns have been identified in queries, corresponding data may be aggregated from data sources in a pre-aggregated data table. Query optimization rules may then be used to have these data tables queried in place of their original sources.

Abstract

Techniques for detecting a fraudulent attempt by an adversarial user to voice verify as a user are presented. An authenticator component can determine characteristics of voice information received in connection with a user account based on analysis of the voice information. In response to determining the characteristics sufficiently match characteristics of a voice print associated with the user account, authenticator component can determine a similarity score based on comparing the characteristics of the voice information and other characteristics of a set of previously stored voice prints associated with the user account. Authenticator component can determine whether the similarity score is higher than a threshold similarity score to indicate whether the voice information is a replay of a recording or a deep fake emulation of the voice of the user. Above the threshold can indicate the voice information is fraudulent, and below the threshold can indicate the voice information is valid.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for intelligent pre-execution of decision service strategies for availability during data requests. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may utilize different decision services that implement rules and artificial intelligence models for decision-making of data including data in production computing environment. A decision service may normally be invoked to execute a strategy for processing a request when that request is received or arrives at the decision service. To provide faster processing and higher availability of such services, an intimation call may be received at the decision service from an upstream service, which initiates a process to pre-execute the strategy based on available data at the time of the intimation call. Pathways of rules capable of being completed may be executed using the available data and the result may be stored for later merging with further strategy execution.

Abstract

Blockchain latency is improved by unclogging a mempool, which frees up electronic memory and reduces CPU usage and network bandwidth. Mining data of one or more initial blocks of a blockchain is accessed. The mining data reveals, for each miner, the time delay between individual transactions mined by that miner. A subset of miners is then determined to have lower time delays than miners not in the subset. Thereafter, a different random number is generated for each new block of the blockchain system to be mined. Based on a comparison of this random number and a predefined threshold, either an exploitation phase or an exploration phase is entered for the mining of each new block. In the exploitation phase, mining tasks are assigned only to the subset of the miners. In the exploration phase, mining tasks are assigned to both miners within the subset and miners not in the subset.

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer program products for using a generative artificial intelligence system to generate answers or summaries is provided. During the ingestion stage, the system receives documents and transcripts that include data associated with a theme. The data is converted into a common format and is divided into chunks. The chunks are associated with metadata tags that include chunk and data information. From the chunks, the system generates embedding vectors. During the inference stage, the system receives an information request. If the information request is a question, the system generates a vector from the question, and uses a similarity search to identify similar vectors. From the similar vectors, the system identifies chunks. If the information request includes a summary request, the system uses the metadata tags to identify chunks with summary information. The system generates an answer or a summary from the identified chunks.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for facilitating computer software feature experimentation by using one or more graph analyses to partition users into different experimentation groups. A graph is generated to represent users of a service provider and relationships among the users. When a request to perform a software feature experiment on the users of the service provider, the graph is analyzed to determine an estimated spillover effect. The graph is then coarsened across multiple levels using a label propagation technique based on one or more coarsening parameters. After the graph has been coarsened, the graph is partitioned into multiple partitions based on one or more partitioning parameters. The coarsening parameters and/or the partitioning parameters may be determined based on the estimated spillover effect. A subset of users is selected for performing the software feature experiment based on the partitioning of the coarsened graph.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for automated chatbots that detect privacy data sharing and leakage by other automated chatbot systems. A service provider and other chatbot services, including an electronic transaction processor, may provide self-service channels for assistance through chatbot and other automated computing processes. However, these chatbots may be regulated by compliance with privacy protection requirements, and therefore use of the chatbots and/or user data when responding to users via chatbots in chat sessions may be noncompliant and/or attacked by malicious users to compromise privacy protected data. In order to facilitate detection of leaks and shares by chatbots, an AI for a privacy protection chatbot may be trained on regulations for chatbot use and/or data security and privacy protection. The chatbot may then interact with other chatbots and question the other chatbots using the trained AI model to detect whether privacy protected data is exposed.

Abstract

A determination is made that a customer event has been initiated by a customer. The customer event is associated with a plurality of words. The plurality of words are parsed. Based on a result of the parsing of the plurality of words, an intent of the customer corresponding to the customer event is predicted. Based on the predicted intent, a first simulated service agent of a plurality of service agents is associated with the customer event. Based on the predicted intent, a first set of Natural Language Map (NLM) models for the customer and a second set of NLM models for the first simulated service agent are accessed. Based on the first set of NLM models and the second set of NLM models, a simulated conversation between the customer and the first simulated service agent is generated. The simulated conversation involves the predicted intent.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for translating informal utterances into formal texts. Informal utterances may include words in abbreviation forms or typographical errors. The informal utterances may be processed by mapping each word in an utterance into a well-defined token. The mapping from the words to the tokens may be based on a context associated with the utterance derived by analyzing the utterance in a character-by-character basis. The token that is mapped for each word can be one of a vocabulary token that corresponds to a formal word in a pre-defined word corpus, an unknown token that corresponds to an unknown word, or a masked token. Formal text may then be generated based on the mapped tokens. Through the processing of informal utterances using the techniques disclosed herein, the informal utterances are both normalized and sanitized.

Abstract

A method of preventing account takeover fraud includes assigning a user account to a target set accounts, determining matric values for past and present computing actions of the target set of accounts, determining, for at least one of the metrics, that present metric value is an outlier with respect to the past metric values and, in response, transmitting an outlier notification to the user. The method further includes receiving a computing action request involving the account, the request including computing action characteristic values, determining that the characteristic values match a combination of characteristic values associated with a risk that exceeds a threshold, the risk determined according to past computing actions and, in response, requiring a second authentication factor of the user or declining the computing action associated with the request.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing a machine learning model framework that uses multiple models that analyze different aspects of graph data to perform transaction classification. A graph is generated to represent relationships among transactions and fuzzy attributes. The framework includes a graph neural network that generates embeddings for each transaction based on the graph. The framework further includes a machine learning model that generates an initial classification score for a particular transaction based on the embeddings generated for the particular transaction and the actual attributes associated with the particular transaction. One or more communities are identified within the graph based on the connections among various fuzzy attributes. Characteristics associated with a particular community corresponding to the particular transaction are used to modify the initial risk score. A classification is determined for the particular transaction based on the modified risk score.

Abstract

Various techniques are disclosed for providing gateway services between a client system and downstream service systems for a service system. The disclosed gateway service system is capable of implementing a new service for a client system in response to a request from the client system. The gateway service system internally determines which downstream services are needed to implement the new service. In various instances, the gateway service system utilizes machine learning algorithms to determine the downstream services suitable for providing the output needed for the new service. The gateway service system is also capable of determining whether an existing application programming interface (API) is able to be used for the new service or whether a new API needs to be created for the new service. By internally determining the downstream services and APIs, the gateway service system has more efficient utilization of its computational resources.
