Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing a graph-based framework for evaluating feature candidates for a machine learning model. A production graph is generated to represent relationships among various assets of an organization. The production graph is used by various machine learning models for obtaining input data to perform the corresponding tasks. When it is determined that data corresponding to a feature candidate selected for the machine learning model is missing from the graph, instead of modifying the production graph, a new graph schema that defines one or more additional vertex types or one or more additional edge types is generated. New graph data is also generated based on the new graph schema. In response to a query corresponding to the feature candidate, a merged graph is generated by incorporating the new graph data into the production graph. A query result is obtained based on traversing the merged graph.

Abstract

Methods and systems for digital hot wallet protection are provided. A payment channel is established via a Layer-2 network of a cryptocurrency blockchain for transferring a cryptocurrency balance from a first digital wallet of a service provider to a second digital wallet of a trusted entity over a plurality of commitment transactions. A transaction receipt for each commitment transaction is transmitted to the trusted entity via a secure communication channel previously established between the service provider and the trusted entity outside of the Layer-2 network. A transaction log of the service provider is modified so that it no longer represents the current transaction state of the payment channel. Responsive to detecting a breach of the first wallet, a transaction is broadcast to a Layer-1 network of the blockchain for transferring the total cryptocurrency balance from the first wallet to the second wallet.

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for updating an operating system (OS) on a computing system. In some embodiments, a computer system receives an instruction to update a first operating system (OS) of the computer system to a second OS. The computer system loads the second OS into a volatile memory of the computer system and initiates a backup of the non-volatile memory of the computer system while the second OS is loaded into the volatile memory. In response to a completion of the backup, the computer system moves the second OS from the volatile memory to the non-volatile memory of the computer system. The computer system then boots the second OS from the non-volatile memory. This provides data integrity, minimizes risk of data loss, and reduces disruptions during the OS update process.

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed relating to determining whether input data is authentic. A system detects input data, that includes text data and typing data, at a computing device. The system may generate, using a string model, a string-level prediction for the input data, where the string model is trained to increase a similarity between embeddings of authentic text data and corresponding sequences of typing data. Using a character model, the system may generate a character-level prediction for the set of input data, where the character-level model predicts an intended sequence of characters based on the text data and a sequence of typing actions included in the input data. Using machine learning, the system determines, based on the string-level prediction and the character-level prediction, whether the input data is authentic input. The system transmits, to the device, a decision that is generated based on determining whether the input data is authentic.

Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for dynamically managing token limits in Large Language Models (LLMs) using a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). In some embodiments, a computing system receives a query and retrieves relevant context articles via RAG. The system tokenizes the query and context articles to generate a set of input tokens for inclusion in an LLM prompt. A dynamic threshold is determined based on the input token quantity, which is used to truncate or adjust the token count if necessary. The threshold can be applied such that the total number of input and output tokens does not exceed the LLM's limit. Additionally, a lookup table can be generated from training data that correlates input token ranges with corresponding truncation thresholds. The system improves token usage by dynamically adjusting thresholds based on the input data, improving LLM performance and scalability in handling diverse data inputs.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for a machine learning model and narrative generator for prohibited transaction detection and compliance. A service provider server, such as an electronic transaction processor, may generate a machine learning model using a supervised training technique, which may detect transactions that may be money laundering. The model may be iteratively trained by detecting flagged transactions and outputting those transactions to an agent for identification of false positives, which may be used to retrain the model. When outputting the flagged transactions, a narrative may be generated using an explainer graph and a machine learning prediction explainer that identifies the features of the transaction data that caused the transactions to be flagged. Further, once the model is trained additional transactions may be processed to determine whether the features of those transactions indicate prohibited behavior.

Abstract

Automated rule set generation is disclosed. A computer generates a rule by selecting a feature of a dataset of training data having a plurality of features and by creating, based on the feature, a root node of a decision tree. The root node is associated with a root node decision condition. The computer associates, based on the root node decision condition, events in the dataset with one or more root-level branches from the root node. The computer selects one of the one or more root-level branches as a selected root-level branch, with any remaining root-level branches constituting unselected root-level branches. The computer creates nodes at (n−1) levels descending from the selected root-level branch without creating nodes descending from the unselected root-level branches. The computer evaluates information gains of nodes at a depth of n levels of the decision tree to determine a first n-condition rule of the rule set.

Abstract

Methods and systems described herein may implement blockchain cryptocurrency transactions in a variety of environments. An online transaction processor may provide operations for ephemeral cryptocurrency wallets and platforms. The transaction processor may receive a request for an entity to establish an ephemeral digital wallet, which may correspond to a digital wallet that does not remain permanently open and usable for cryptocurrency transactions in contrast to conventional digital wallet address that are always active once a blockchain and its addresses have been established. The transaction processor may utilize a digital platform with a governor software function that may limit the usage of the wallet address on the blockchain to approved cryptocurrency key transfers and transactions. A whitelist may be established with the governor function that may designate allowable addresses that may deposit cryptocurrency through key transfers, as well as addresses or conditions for cryptocurrency payments or withdrawals.

Abstract

Techniques for predicting whether a submission includes a forged image. A computer system receives a submission from a user that includes an image and image metadata, such as an identifier for the user and a User-Agent string value. An image pixel embedding is generated from the image, and a profile embedding is generated from the image metadata. The image embedding is indicative of whether the image is similar to known image forgeries. The profile embedding is generated from a user activity embedding indicative of User-Agent values associated with the user identifier. The profile embedding is generated using a machine learning model that uses stored parameters to associate user activity, device information, and forgery groups. The profile embedding thus indicates whether the user is associated with known image forgeries. The image pixel embedding and profile embedding are then used by a neural network to output a forgery prediction.

Abstract

Computer security improvements relating to defenses using behavior pattern identification and extraction from unique traits of activities in time-series data are disclosed. A service provider may utilize a framework having computing operations for detecting and protecting from fraud and other behaviors indicative of risk, account takeovers, or other malicious activity. In this regard, the service provider may utilize a pattern analysis tool that may analyze computing log histories for account activities performed by devices using digital accounts. The activities may be correlated based on their traits having the same or similar data values, where sharing of these traits for activities at or over a threshold with a target account group in contrast to another account group may indicate a particular behavior. Behavior patterns may be extracted by comparing the activities by their traits in the target group, and the behavior patterns may be used for AI model training.

Abstract

Computer security improvements relating to fraud detection and data correlations through large-scale graph clustering of graph transformations and embeddings are disclosed. A service provider may utilize a framework having computing operations for detecting fraud and other malicious or suspicious activities by groups of accounts and fraudsters. In this regard, the service provider may transform relationship graphs of account networks and relationships between accounts and account data captured in the nodes and edges of such graphs. The service provider may merge nodes that edges connecting to other nodes of a certain type of account data, while other types of account data and nodes may not be merged. Edges may also be merged and weighted, and the resulting transformed graph may undergo graph embedding to generate vectors that may be clustered using an AI clustering algorithm. The clusters may then be used for AI model training and inferencing.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for providing a framework that configures a machine learning model to be insensitive to changes in input features. A computer modeling system determines data sources from which attribute values associated with transactions can be obtained. Instead of configuring the machine learning model to accept the attribute values as inputs, the computer modeling system may configure the machine learning model to accept a vector representation in a multi-dimensional space as input values. The computer modeling system then generates an encoder for each data source. Each encoder is configured to encode attribute values from a corresponding data source to a representation representing the attribute values. Further, each encoder is trained to minimize a variance between outputs of the different encoders. The computer modeling system determines a vector representation based on the representations generated by the encoders and provide the vector representation to the machine learning model.

Abstract

A computer system performs a processing operation in real time on an aggregated value stored in a counter of a set of counters corresponding to time periods associated with events. The computer system maintains the set of counters usable to store aggregated values of an event metric. In response to detection of the events, the computer system stores, in a database, event details for the received events and updates those counters of the set of counters that correspond to time periods associated with the received events. In response to receipt, in a current time period, of an update to a particular event of the received events associated with a previous time period, the computer system, in real time, retrieves, from the set of counters, a particular aggregated value of the event metric for the previous time period and performs a processing operation based on the particular aggregated value.

Abstract

Methods and systems are presented for identifying different users who share a user account with an online service provider and dynamically processing transactions for the user account differently based on which user initiates the transaction request. In some embodiments, an account decomposition system may decompose the user account into distinct users who share the user account. The account decomposition system may identify different users who are sharing a user account by analyzing past transactions associated with the user account and different user devices that were used to conduct the past transactions. The account decomposition system may determine different user profiles for the different users, and may use the different user profiles to process incoming transaction requests initiated by different users of the user account.
