According to an implementation of the disclosed technology, a method is provided that includes: receiving entity-supplied information including at least a name, a social security number, and a mailing address associated with a request for a payment or a benefit from a government agency; querying one or more public or private databases with the entity-supplied information; receiving a plurality of independent information in response to the querying; determining, based at least in part on a comparison of the entity-supplied information with at least a portion of the plurality of independent information, indicators of fraud; and outputting, for display, zero or more indicators of fraud. | 05-29-2014 |
20140101168 | TECHNIQUE FOR RECYCLING MATCH WEIGHT CALCULATIONS - Disclosed is a system for, and method of, recycling field value weights as computed for database linking purposes. Such field value weights may be used for a search operation. In some embodiments, such weights may be used for a search operation prior to their values stabilizing during an iterative linking operation. | 04-10-2014 |
20140074402 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DRIVING ROUTES - Certain implementations of the disclosed technology may include systems, methods, and apparatus for determining risks associated with a driving route. According to an example implementation, a method is provided. The method may include identifying one or more probable routes of travel that include one or more first road segments. The method includes estimating risk associated with vehicular travel along one or more first road segments based at least in part on one or more of static road characteristics, temporal road characteristics, historical accident information, incident information, and traffic violation information associated with the one or more first road segments, and estimating risk associated with vehicular travel along the one or more probable routes by accumulating the estimated risk associated with vehicular travel along the one or more first road segments. | 03-13-2014 |
20140032594 | Populating Entity Fields Based On Hierarchy Partial Resolution - Certain implementations may include systems and methods for populating entity fields based on hierarchy partial resolution. According to an example implementation, a method is provided that may include identifying one or more first matching records in a hierarchical database, where matching records include one or more fields having an associated first matching field value that at least partially matches a received portion of a first query term. The method may include outputting, for display, one or more first matching field values of the one or more first matching records and receiving a second indication input signifying a selection of one of the one or more first matching field values. | 01-30-2014 |
20140032557 | Internal Linking Co-Convergence Using Clustering With Hierarchy - Certain implementations of the disclosed technology include systems and methods for internal co-convergence using clustering when there is hierarchy in the data structure. A method is included for clustering hierarchical database records into a first set of clusters having corresponding first cluster identifications (IDs), each hierarchical database record including one or more field values, the clustering based at least in part on determining similarity among corresponding field values of the hierarchical database records. The method includes receiving parent-child hierarchical relationship information for the hierarchical database records, re-clustering at least a portion of the hierarchical database records into a second set of clusters having corresponding second cluster IDs, the re-clustering based at least in part on the received parent-child hierarchical relationship information, and outputting hierarchical database record information, based at least in part on the re-clustering. | 01-30-2014 |
20140032556 | Internal Linking Co-Convergence Using Clustering With No Hierarchy - Certain implementations of the disclosed technology include systems and methods for linking entities in an internal database by utilizing co-convergence and clustering. The method may include clustering database records into a first set of clusters having corresponding first cluster identifications (IDs). The clustering may be based at least in part on determining similarity among corresponding field values. The method may include associating mutually matching database records, by performing at least one matching iteration for each of the database records. The method may include determining similarity among corresponding field values of the database records, re-clustering at least a portion of the database records into a second set of clusters, the re-clustering based at least in part on the associating mutually matching database records and on the determining similarity among corresponding field values of the database records. | 01-30-2014 |
20140012716 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING TAX REFUND FRAUD - Certain embodiments of the disclosed technology may include systems and methods for detecting tax refund fraud. According to an exemplary embodiment of the disclosed technology, a method is provided for detecting tax refund fraud. The method includes receiving entity-supplied information. In an exemplary embodiment, the entity-supplied information includes at least a name, social security number, and mailing address. The method further includes querying one or more databases with the entity-supplied information and receiving a plurality of independent information in response to the querying. The method can include determining, based at least in part on a comparison of the entity-supplied information with the plurality of independent information, zero or more indicators of fraud. The method can include outputting the zero or more indicators of fraud. | 01-09-2014 |
20130297594 | BATCH ENTITY REPRESENTATION IDENTIFICATION USING FIELD MATCH TEMPLATES - Techniques may be used to match records of a batch file to an entity representation in a universal database. Inputs may include, but are not limited to, a batch file and a universal (or other) database. The technique may compare the records of the batch file to the records of the universal database, and may attempt to create matches between the records in the batch file and the entity representations or records in the universal database. One possible output may include one or more tables that include foreign record IDs of the batch file records, each in association with an entity representation of the universal database. The techniques may include a batch style processing of records. | 11-07-2013 |
