BACKGROUND

There are currently two (2) basic manners in which customer interactions requiring complex decision making may be carried out. First, a customer may conduct live telephone or online chat conversations with a human Customer Service Representative (CSR). These conversations are often enhanced and/or preceded by utilization of an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system to triage and/or route the customer's query. Unfortunately, as human staffing is an expensive resource, many customers may experience long wait times and/or poor quality of service. Long wait times, in particular, often dissuade customers from becoming involved with the decision-making process and/or delay the process. In cases where timely information is important for result determination, such delays often lead to mistakes and associated economic losses.

In the second manner of customer interactions, advancements in smartphone technology have provided for mobile platforms via which customers may skip human-to-human interactions (and the attendant queues thereof) by submitting queries via mobile applications. While the promise of such a technology-enhanced option was originally high, it has failed to remedy the problems with the query process. Smartphone applications must be coded to provide menus and specific questions to customers so that they may be properly guided through the process, for example. However, even leveraging the best marketing research has failed to generate menus and questions that substantial portions of a customer base find intuitive. Confusion with mobile device applications increases the frequency of incorrect data entry, which, in turn, leads to inaccurate decision-making results. Inaccurate results cause economic errors which do harm to either or both of the customer and the entity to which the customer has submitted a query.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
I. Introduction

Complex decision-making results based on customer (and/or client or potential customer/client) queries continue to be a bottleneck and a source of error despite leveraging of mobile device applications to reduce queue times for CSR conversations. Accordingly, entities tasked with providing results based on such queries must either increase CSR staffing, which greatly increases costs, or spend large amounts of capital developing new menus and questions for mobile device applications, with no guarantee of success in providing more intuitive and less error-prone interfaces.

In accordance with embodiments herein, these and other deficiencies of previous solutions are remedied by providing systems, apparatus, methods, and articles of manufacture for utilizing multivariate Artificial Intelligence (AI) smart cards. Some embodiments, for example, utilize smart cards to enhance the speed and accuracy of initial or First Notice Of Loss (FNOL) inputs and then leverage multi-tiered AI analysis to automatically process the inputs to generate an accurate and timely result. In some embodiments, the AI analysis may accept a plurality of inputs such as (i) data from and/or based upon received smart card data (e.g., metadata), (ii) customer response language data (e.g., natural spoken and/or written language data), and/or (iii) customer device sensor data (e.g., pictures, video, readings, etc.) and may convert each input into a numeric value. According to some embodiments, the numeric values may be combined (e.g., in accordance with one or more mathematical operations) and evaluated by stored AI logic rules to identify one or more statistically relevant matches with prestored data. In some embodiments, the prestored matches may be utilized to calculate or compute a result for the customer's query (e.g., automatically—without human input into the analysis procedure).

The body 306-1 may, in some embodiments, be generally rectangular-shaped with rounded corners and/or have dimensions approximating standard credit card-sizes, such as eighty-five and six tenths millimeters by fifty-three and ninety-eight hundredths millimeters (85.6 mm×53.98 mm; or 3.370″×2.125″) with a thickness of seventy-six hundredths millimeters (0.76 mm; 0.03125″).

According to some embodiments, the smart card 306 may also or alternatively comprise an NFC device 318 and/or a memory chip 340. The memory chip 340 may, for example, comprise a 256K (262,144 bits) or 512K (524,288 bits) serial Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) chip embedded between layers (not shown) of the substrate utilized to construct the body 306-1 of the smart card 306. In some embodiments, the memory chip 306-3 may store the same information as the barcode 308 and/or may store additional information. According to some embodiments, the data stored on the memory chip 340 may be accessible via the NFC device 318. The NFC device 318 may, for example, comprise a micro NFC/RFID transponder, such as an NTAG® 213 IC that operates in accordance with the ISO 14443A “Identification cards—Contactless integrated circuit cards—Proximity cards” standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) of Geneva, Switzerland (2018), and available from NXP® Semiconductors Netherlands B.V. of Eindhoven, Netherlands. The NFC device 318 may, in some embodiments, comprise a passively activated and/or powered transponder operable to provide stored information (e.g., stored by the NFC device 318 and/or the memory chip 340) wirelessly to an external and proximate device (not shown; e.g., the mobile electronic device 202 of FIG. 2 herein).

In some embodiments, such as in the case that the barcode 308 is utilized, and referring specifically to FIG. 3B for greater detail, the barcode 308 may store account data and/or metadata via a plurality of encoded and/or arranged black squares 308-1a in a square grid on a white background 308a-1b. Such encoded data can be read by an imaging device (not shown) and processed using known Reed-Solomon error correction techniques to decode the stored data. In operation, a matrix barcode, such as the example barcode 308 shown in FIG. 3A may be imaged by a 2-dimensional imaging sensor and then digitally processed by an electronic device. The processing may generally comprise an identification and/or location of three positioning symbols (e.g., embedded squares) 308-2a, 308-2b, 208-2c disposed proximate to three corners of the barcode 308 image, with image alignment and normalization being confirmed utilizing an alignment symbol (e.g., a smaller embedded square) 308-3 proximate to a fourth corner of the barcode 308 image. In some embodiments, the black squares 308-1a encoding the data may be converted to binary numbers and validated with an error-correcting algorithm (e.g., a Reed-Solomon algorithm) in accordance with the ISO/IEC 18004:2015 “Information—Automatic identification and data capture techniques—QR Code barcode symbology” specification published by the ISO (2015).

According to some embodiments, the barcode 308 may comprise any type and/or configuration of machine-readable indicia, such as a Version 40 (177×177) QR® code storing up to one thousand eight hundred and fifty-two (1,852) characters of ASCII text and/or a Version 4 (33×33) QR® code as depicted in FIG. 3A, and capable of storing up to fifty (50) characters of data. In some embodiments, the barcode 308 may comprise special regions of data that are utilized to effect operational decoding of the stored data. The barcode 308 may comprise, for example, a “quiet zone” 308-4 that provides an optical imaging buffer between the stored data and an external visual elements, encoded version information areas 308-5 that store decoding version information, and/or formatting areas 308-6 that store data descriptive of the format of the stored data. According to some embodiments, the barcode 308 may also or alternatively comprise a logo 308-7 or other artwork, images, text, and/or non-data features to distinguish the barcode 308 from those utilized by other entities. In the case of the logo 308-7 depicted in FIG. 3B, for example, the design of the barcode 308 may be centered upon the logo 308-7, while the layout and visual depiction of the stored data (e.g., via the black squares 308-1a) and decoding elements 308-2a, 308-2b, 308-2c, 308-3, 308-4, 308-5, 308-6 may change depending upon the type of barcode 308 chosen for the smart card 306 and based on the specific data stored thereon.

Fewer or more components 306-1, 306-2, 308-1a, 308-1b, 308-2a, 308-2b, 308-2c, 308-3, 308-4, 308-5, 308-6, 308-7, 318, 340 and/or various configurations of the depicted components 306-1, 306-2, 308-1a, 308-1b, 308-2a, 308-2b, 308-2c, 308-3, 308-4, 308-5, 308-6, 308-7, 318, 340 may be included in the smart card 306 without deviating from the scope of embodiments described herein. In some embodiments, the components 306-1, 306-2, 308-1a, 308-1b, 308-2a, 308-2b, 308-2c, 308-3, 308-4, 308-5, 308-6, 308-7, 318, 340 may be similar in configuration and/or functionality to similarly named and/or numbered components as described herein. In some embodiments, the smart card 306 (and/or portions thereof) may comprise a multivariate AI smart card program, system, and/or platform programmed and/or otherwise configured to execute, conduct, and/or facilitate the methods 400, 500, 600 of FIG. 4, FIG. 5, and/or FIG. 6 herein, and/or portions or combinations thereof.

III. Multivariate AI Smart Card Methods

Referring to FIG. 4, a systemic flow diagram of a method or process 400 according to some embodiments is shown. In some embodiments, the process 400 may comprise and/or define a method for multivariate AI smart card decision-making result generation (e.g., based on user/customer queries/input). The process 400 may, for example, be executed by various hardware and/or logical components via interactive communications, which may involve communications between any or all of a handheld device 402, a smart card 406, and/or a server 410. According to some embodiments, the handheld device 402 may comprise a first processing unit 412a and/or the server 410 may comprise a second processing unit 412b. In some embodiments, the handheld device 402 may comprise and/or be in communication with a first memory 440a and/or the server 410 may comprise and/or be in communication with a second memory 440b. The first memory 440a of the handheld device 402 may store, for example, application instructions 442a. According to some embodiments, the second memory 440b of the server 410 may store an AI image module 442b-1, an AI text module 442b-2, and/or an AI metadata module 442b-3. In some embodiments, the second memory 440b and/or the server 410 may comprise and/or store metadata 444 and/or the metadata 444 (or a portion thereof) may reside externally to the server 410 (e.g., on one or more third-party devices; not shown).

In some embodiments, the process 400 (e.g., for multivariate AI smart card decision-making result generation based on user/customer queries/input) may comprise providing first input by the smart card 406 to the handheld device 402 (and/or the first processing device 412a thereof), at “1”. The handheld device 402 may query or interrogate the smart card 406 to retrieve the first input, for example, and/or may utilize a sensor (not shown), such as a camera, to acquire the first input, e.g., as described herein. In some embodiments, the smart card 406 may comprise NFC, RFID, and/or other short-range network or wireless communications capability that is utilized to transmit and/or pass the first input (such as account identification information) to the handheld device 402. According to some embodiments, the first processing device 412a may pass the first input to and/or initialize the application instructions 442a, at “2”. According to some embodiments, the application instructions 442a may identify a communication address of the server 410, e.g., based on the first input from the smart card 406. The transmitting at “3” may, in some embodiments, result from an automatic activation of a hard-coded network address or remote identifier of the server 410 embedded within and/or accessible to the application instructions 442a. In some embodiments, the application instructions 442a may pass the first input to, call, and/or query the sever 410 (and/or the second processing unit 412b thereof), at “3”. In some embodiments, the application instructions 442a may edit and/or append data to the first input (e.g., data descriptive of the handheld device 402 and/or user/customer query data, such as claim handling data) prior to transmitting to the server 410.

In some embodiments, the second processing unit 412b may utilize the receipt of the first input to trigger a call (e.g., a first AI call), query, and/or or initiation of the AI metadata module 442b-3, at “4”. According to some embodiments, as shown by the dotted line from “4” in FIG. 4, the first input may also or alternatively be utilized to initiate a query to the metadata 444. The metadata 444 may comprise, for example, data stored in relation to data elements received as part of the first input, e.g., an account, object, electronic device, and/or location identifier. The metadata 444 may be queried utilizing such relations to identify a portion or subset of related metadata, at “5”. According to some embodiments, the identified portion/subset of metadata and/or the first input may be passed as first AI input to the AI metadata module 442b-3, at “6”.

According to some embodiments, the AI metadata module 442b-3 may execute stored AI instructions to process, analyze, and/or evaluate the subset of the metadata and/or the first input, at “7”. The AI metadata module 442b-3 may, for example, compare the first input and/or the subset of the metadata to stored data (not separately shown) descriptive of other user/customer queries, accounts, losses, claims, etc., e.g., to identify similarities between previous queries and the current user/customer query. According to some embodiments, values for various parameters of the first input and/or the subset of the metadata may be compared to other stored values for the same parameters (but for different users/customers and/or events) and may be identified as similar in the case that the values are within a predetermined threshold value range of each other. In some embodiments, the first input and/or the subset of the metadata may be processed utilizing stored rules defined and/or executed by the AI metadata module 442b-3 to generate, define, calculate, and/or otherwise compute a first or metadata numeric value representative of the first input/subset of the metadata, e.g., a first AI output “I”. According to some embodiments, the first AI output “I” may also or alternatively comprise multi-factor authentication data, such as a security question and/or code that may be based on the first input and/or the subset of the metadata. In some embodiments, the first AI output “I” may also or alternatively comprise the subset of the metadata or a portion thereof.

In some embodiments, the AI metadata module 442b-3 may pass or transmit the first AI output “I” to the second processing unit 412b, at “8”. The transmission at “8” may, for example, comprise a response (“RS”) to the provision of the first input at “4”. According to some embodiments, the second processing unit 412b may utilize the first AI output “I” to identify and/or generate a query, such as a multi-factor authentication challenge question, based on the subset of the metadata, etc., at “9”. In some embodiments, the server 410 (and/or the second processing unit 412b thereof) may transmit the query/challenge to the handheld device 402 (and/or the first processing unit 412a thereof), at “10”. In the case that the server 410 is in communication with the handheld device 402 via the Internet and/or a cellular telephone network, for example, the server 410 may generate a packet-based communication signal that conveys the generated query/challenge to the handheld device 402.

In some embodiments, the first processing unit 412a of the handheld device 402 may utilize the first AI output “I” to trigger and/or activate the application instructions 442a, at “11”. The application instructions 442a may, for example, output (e.g., via a GUI; not separately shown) an indication of the first AI output “I”, such as a multi-factor authentication challenge, security question, policy question, etc., and/or otherwise query the user, at “12”. According to some embodiments, the user may provide input to the handheld device 402, e.g., in response to the outputting of the first AI output “I”, and the application instructions 442a may transmit or forward such second input to the server 410 (and/or the second processing device 412b thereof), at “13”. In some embodiments, such as in the case that the application instructions 442a output a query to the user, the second input may comprise a natural language response to the query. The natural language response may, for example, comprise text, audio, video, and/or other natural language and/or communicative information conveyed by the user.

In some embodiments, the second processing unit 412b of the server 410 may utilize the receipt of the second input to trigger a call (e.g., a second AI call), query, and/or or initiation of the AI text module 442b-2, at “14”. According to some embodiments, the second input may be passed as second AI input to the AI text module 442b-2. In some embodiments, the AI text module 442b-2 may execute stored AI instructions to process, analyze, and/or evaluate the second input, at “15”. The AI text module 442b-2 may, for example, compare the second input (e.g., a natural language response) to stored data (not separately shown) descriptive of natural language intent mappings to identify similarities between prestored intent mappings and the current user/customer input/response. In some embodiments, the compared and/or identified mappings may be utilized to formulate one or more natural language responses or queries to be sent to the user, defining an automated and interactive AI chat session with the user.

According to some embodiments, values for various parameters of the second input (e.g., ASCII identifiers, word identifiers, phrase identifiers) may be compared to other stored values for the same parameters (but for different users/customers and/or events) and may be identified as similar in the case that the values are within a predetermined threshold value range of each other. In some embodiments, the second input may be processed utilizing stored rules defined and/or executed by the AI text module 442b-2 to generate, define, calculate, and/or otherwise compute a second or natural language numeric value representative of the second input, e.g., a second AI output “II”. According to some embodiments, the second AI output “II” may also or alternatively comprise one or more natural language responses formulated by the AI text module 442b-2.

In some embodiments, the AI text module 442b-2 may pass or transmit the second AI output “II” to the second processing unit 412b, at “16”. The transmission at “16” may, for example, comprise a response (“RS”) to the provision of the second input at “14”. According to some embodiments, and as identified by the dotted feedback loop line in FIG. 4, the second processing unit 412b may utilize the second AI output “II” to identify and/or generate a query that is passed on to the handheld device 402 (and/or the application instructions 442a thereof) and the user may provide additional natural language input that is sent back to the server 410 at “13”, e.g., in furtherance of the automated and interactive AI chat session with the user.

According to some embodiments, the application instructions 442a may output (e.g., via the GUI) an indication of the second AI output “II”, such as a request to provide and/or capture an image (and/or other sensor data of the handheld device 402) and/or otherwise query the user, at “17”. According to some embodiments, the user may provide input to the handheld device 402, e.g., in response to the outputting of the second AI output “II”, and the application instructions 442a may transmit or forward such third input to the server 410 (and/or the second processing device 412b thereof), at “18”. In some embodiments, such as in the case that the application instructions 442a output an image request and/or sensor data query to the user, the third input may comprise one or more images, audio, video, and/or other sensor data readings and/or depictions.

In some embodiments, the second processing unit 412b of the server 410 may utilize the receipt of the third input to trigger a call (e.g., a third AI call), query, and/or or initiation of the AI image module 442b-1, at “19”. According to some embodiments, the third input may be passed as third AI input to the AI image module 442b-1. In some embodiments, the AI image module 442b-1 may execute stored AI instructions to process, analyze, and/or evaluate the third input, at “20”. The AI image module 442b-1 may, for example, compare the third input (e.g., image and/or other sensor data) to stored data (not separately shown) descriptive of object images and/or characteristics (e.g., visual and/or other sensor characteristics) to identify similarities between prestored object data and the captured image data. In some embodiments, the comparison may be utilized to identify objects and/or other features within and/or described by the third input and/or compare such objects and/or features to objects and/or features for other accounts, customers, and/or events.

According to some embodiments, values for various parameters of the third input (e.g., identified object types, sizes, temperature, color, conditions, and/or other characteristics) may be compared to other stored values for the same parameters (but for different users/customers and/or events) and may be identified as similar in the case that the values are within a predetermined threshold value range of each other. In some embodiments, the third input may be processed utilizing stored rules defined and/or executed by the AI image module 442b-1 to generate, define, calculate, and/or otherwise compute a third or image numeric value representative of the third input, e.g., a third AI output “III”.

In some embodiments, the AI image module 442b-1 may pass or transmit the third AI output “III” to the second processing unit 412b, at “21”. The transmission at “21” may, for example, comprise a response (“RS”) to the provision of the third input at “19”. According to some embodiments, the second processing unit 412b may utilize the first AI output “I”, the second AI output “II”, and/or the third AI output “III” to generate, calculate, and/or otherwise compute a query result (e.g., a claim handling determination or result in the case of a claim of loss query), at “22”. The second processing unit 412b may, for example, execute a claim handling module (not shown) that defines automated AI-based claim handling instructions. According to some embodiments, the instructions may utilize the first, second, and/or third numeric values generate by the AI modules 442b-1, 442b-2, 442b-3 to identify one or more numerically similar previous claim handling (or other query) determinations and calculate and/or compute the current result based on the previous result(s) from any identified similar matters. In some embodiments, the similarity of previous matters may be identified based upon a mathematical comparison of each of the first, second, and third numeric values to values stored in relation to corresponding variables and/or parameters. In some embodiments, the three values may be mathematically combined (e.g., concatenated, aggregated, summed, averaged, etc.) to define a single numeric expression that is compared to corresponding single numeric expressions for each of a plurality of previous matters. In the case that the mathematical difference (simple, absolute, and/or based on one or more formulas and/or models) between the current single numeric expression and a previously recorded matter's numeric expression is within a predefined threshold, similarity may be defined.

According to some embodiments, the server 410 (and/or the second processing unit 412b thereof) may transmit the query/claim result to the handheld device 402 (and/or the first processing unit 412a thereof), at “23”. In the case that the server 410 is in communication with the handheld device 402 via the Internet and/or a cellular telephone network, for example, the server 410 may generate a packet-based communication signal that conveys the generated result to the handheld device 402. In some embodiments, the first processing unit 412a of the handheld device 402 may utilize the receipt of the result to trigger and/or activate the application instructions 442a, at “24”. The application instructions 442a may, for example, output (e.g., via the GUI) an indication of the query/claim result, at “25”. In such a manner, for example, the user may utilize the smart card 406 to quickly and easily provide error-free information to the server 410, e.g., in combination with user inputs (e.g., natural language and/or image/sensor data) to obtain an automated query/claim result.

Turning now to FIG. 5, a flow diagram of a method 500 according to some embodiments is shown. In some embodiments, the method 500 may be performed and/or implemented by and/or otherwise associated with one or more specialized and/or specially-programmed computers (e.g., one or more of the user devices 102a-n, mobile electronic device 202, handheld device 402, the controller device 110, the servers 210, 410, the smart cards 106, 206306, 406, and/or the apparatus 810 of FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and/or FIG. 8 herein), computer terminals, computer servers, computer systems and/or networks, and/or any combinations thereof (e.g., by one or more multi-threaded and/or multi-core processing units of a multivariate AI smart card data processing system). In some embodiments, the method 500 may be embodied in, facilitated by, and/or otherwise associated with various input mechanisms and/or interfaces (such as the interfaces 220, 720a-d, 820 of FIG. 2, FIG. 7A, FIG. 7B, FIG. 7C, FIG. 7D, and/or FIG. 8 herein).

The process diagrams and flow diagrams described herein do not necessarily imply a fixed order to any depicted actions, steps, and/or procedures, and embodiments may generally be performed in any order that is practicable unless otherwise and specifically noted. While the order of actions, steps, and/or procedures described herein is generally not fixed, in some embodiments, actions, steps, and/or procedures may be specifically performed in the order listed, depicted, and/or described and/or may be performed in response to any previously listed, depicted, and/or described action, step, and/or procedure. Any of the processes and methods described herein may be performed and/or facilitated by hardware, software (including microcode), firmware, or any combination thereof. For example, a storage medium (e.g., a hard disk, Random Access Memory (RAM) device, cache memory device, Universal Serial Bus (USB) mass storage device, and/or Digital Video Disk (DVD); e.g., the memory/data storage devices 140, 240a-b, 340, 440a-b, 840, 940a-e of FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 8, FIG. 9A, FIG. 9B, FIG. 9C, FIG. 9D, and/or FIG. 9E herein) may store thereon instructions that when executed by a machine (such as a computerized processor) result in performance according to any one or more of the embodiments described herein.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise receiving (e.g., by an electronic processing device, from a mobile application of a mobile electronic device of an insured party/user, as an initiation of a process to submit a current insurance claim, and/or via a wireless electronic network) data stored on a smart card from a mobile (e.g., portable) electronic device (e.g., via an electronic communications network and/or by an electronic processing device), at 502. According to some embodiments, the smart card data may be obtained from an indication of computer-readable data stored on the smart card. The smart card may comprise a barcode (e.g., a matrix barcode) that is scanned and/or captured or otherwise read by the mobile electronic device, for example, with the content of the barcode being descriptive and/or indicative of the stored data. According to some embodiments, the mobile electronic device may forward, provide, and/or transmit the stored data (e.g., an indication thereof) to a server of an AI system, as described herein. In some embodiments, the smart card data may be obtained from a memory device of the smart card such as via an NFC/RFID device in communication with the smart card memory device. The mobile electronic device may, for example, interrogate the smart card via one or more NFC/RFID signals and/or fields to obtain the stored data. According to some embodiments, the smart card data may comprise data descriptive of and/or identifying an account (e.g., an insurance and/or underwriting account), a customer or other user, an address of the user, an insured object (e.g., an object identifier such as a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)), an environmental condition (e.g., temperature), time, location, query/claim (e.g., description and/or identifier), etc. In some embodiments, the smart card data may comprise and/or be considered metadata descriptive of and/or related to a query/claim of the user of the mobile electronic device. According to some embodiments, the smart card may provide and/or transmit the stored data directly to the server without requiring the mobile electronic device.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise conducting (e.g., by the electronic processing device) a two-factor authentication challenge, at 504. In response to the receiving of the smart card data, for example, the electronic processing device may query a database or other data store to identify a particular two-factor (or multi-factor) authentication challenge (and/or other data, such as metadata). Utilizing the data stored on the smart card (and/or data related thereto), for example, a multi-factor communication address and/or challenge, such as a security question (e.g., account metadata), may be retrieved and/or generated. A communication address of the user, such as an e-mail address, phone number, etc., may, in some embodiments, be looked up. According to some embodiments, the address may comprise an address different from and/or dissociated with the mobile electronic device. In some embodiments, such as in response to the identifying of the two-factor authentication challenge, the two-factor authentication challenge may be transmitted to the identified communication address of the user (e.g., to the mobile electronic device and/or to a different device associated with the address). According to some embodiments, an indication of a response and/or answer to the two-factor authentication challenge may be received by the electronic processing device (e.g., from the mobile electronic device and/or from a different device associated with the address). The answer may comprise, for example, a code, a voice imprint, a facial image, a finger/thumbprint impression, etc. In some embodiments, such as in response to the receiving of the answer to the challenge, the electronic processing device may authenticate the answer. The answer may be compared, for example, to pre-stored and/or specially generated data (e.g., metadata and/or a specially generated passcode) to identify a match. In the case that the answer matches the pre-stored/generated data, the identity and/or authorization of the user may be inferred. In the case that the answer does not match, an additional challenge may be transmitted and/or communications with the user may be terminated.

According to some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise conducting (e.g., by the electronic processing device) AI metadata processing, at 506. Metadata stored in relation to the smart card data and/or comprising the smart card data (or a portion thereof) may, for example, be processed in accordance with pre-stored AI instructions such as may define a claim similarity AI model (or a first portion thereof, such as a first AI module), e.g., stored by a non-transitory computer-readable memory device in communication with the electronic processing device. In some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI metadata processing at 506 may comprise retrieving the metadata, at 508. The metadata may be stored in relation to the smart card data or a portion thereof, for example, and may be retrieved by querying a database storing the metadata by utilizing the smart card data (or a portion thereof) as query input. According to some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI metadata processing at 506 may comprise generating a metadata numeric, at 510. Either or both of the smart card data and any retrieved metadata related thereto may, for example, be processed via the first AI module to define a first or metadata numeric expression. In some embodiments, the execution of the claim similarity AI model by the electronic processing device may convert the data stored on the smart card and/or the related metadata into a first number or first set of numbers. The first AI module may, for example, apply a first mathematical model to the smart card/metadata that utilizes the smart card/metadata as input and generates (e.g., in response to receiving the input) one or more numeric expressions, such as a single number, a series of numbers, and/or a matrix of numbers.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise conducting (e.g., by the electronic processing device) AI sensor data processing, at 512. Sensor data stored on and/or obtained by the mobile electronic device (and/or the smart card) may, for example, be processed in accordance with pre-stored AI instructions such as may define the claim similarity AI model (or a second portion thereof, such as a second AI module) and/or a claim severity AI model (e.g., a third AI module), e.g., stored by the non-transitory computer-readable memory device in communication with the electronic processing device. According to some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI sensor data processing at 512 may comprise receiving the sensor data from the portable electronic device, at 514. An indication of sensor data obtained by the mobile electronic device may, for example, be sent by the mobile electronic device to the server in response to a request for the data. As described herein, for example, the electronic processing device may request that the user provide the sensor data to supplement the initial query/claim and/or description thereof. In some embodiments, the sensor data may comprise one or more images, IR readings, location readings, temperature readings, accelerometer readings, light readings, sound readings and/or recordings, etc. The mobile electronic device (and/or the smart card) may comprise, for example, a camera, home automation and/or security system, and/or other sensor that is triggered and/or utilized to capture the sensor data. In some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI sensor data processing at 512 may comprise generating a sensor data numeric, at 516. Any or all sensor data may, for example, be processed via the first AI module to define a second or sensor data numeric expression. In some embodiments, the execution of the claim similarity AI model (and/or the claim severity AI model) by the electronic processing device may convert the sensor data into a second number or second set of numbers. The second and/or third AI modules may, for example, apply a second and/or third mathematical model to the sensor data that utilizes the sensor data as input and generates (e.g., in response to receiving the input) one or more numeric expressions, such as a single number, a series of numbers, and/or a matrix of numbers. In some embodiments, the second and/or third AI modules may comprise one or more image and/or data analysis modules comprising programming logic that searches the sensor data/imagery for shapes, colors, patterns, and/or other features or objects. According to some embodiments, the second and/or third AI modules may utilize one or more shape and/or pattern identification algorithms to identify areas within the sensor data/imagery that match stored shapes/patterns indicative of various architectural, structural, natural, and/or other objects. Once identified, such objects may, in some embodiments, be utilized to define the second numeric expression.

According to some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise conducting (e.g., by the electronic processing device) AI language data processing, at 518. Language data stored on and/or obtained by the mobile electronic device (and/or the smart card) may, for example, be processed in accordance with pre-stored AI instructions such as may define the claim similarity AI model (or a third portion thereof, such as a fourth AI module) and/or the claim severity AI model (e.g., the third AI module), e.g., stored by the non-transitory computer-readable memory device in communication with the electronic processing device. In some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI language data processing at 518 may comprise conducting a chat via the portable electronic device, at 520. An indication of language data obtained by the mobile electronic device may, for example, be sent by the mobile electronic device to the server in response to a request for the data (e.g., a chat initialization). As described herein, for example, the electronic processing device may send an introductory chat message to the user to initiate an automated AI chat session. An execution of the AI chat module by the electronic processing device utilizing the data stored on the smart card (and/or related metadata) may, for example, cause a generation of at least one chat query. According to some embodiments, a mobile application (e.g., a chat application) of the mobile electronic device may provide an indication of a chat response from the user, e.g., in response to the generated at least one chat query. In some embodiments, the response may comprise language data (e.g., natural language data), such as one or more words, sentences, icons (e.g., emoji), audio, video, etc. According to some embodiments, the method 500 and/or the AI language data processing at 518 may comprise generating a language data numeric, at 522. Any or all language data may, for example, be processed via the third and/or fourth AI modules to define a third or language data numeric expression. In some embodiments, the execution of the claim similarity AI model (and/or the claim severity AI model) by the electronic processing device may convert the language data into a third number or third set of numbers. The third and/or fourth AI modules may, for example, apply a third and/or fourth mathematical model to the language data that utilizes the language data as input and generates (e.g., in response to receiving the input) one or more numeric expressions, such as a single number, a series of numbers, and/or a matrix of numbers.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise identifying (e.g., by the electronic processing device) one or more similar queries and/or claims, at 524. The server of the AI system may, for example, conduct one or more comparisons between data (e.g., metadata, sensor data, and/or language data) descriptive of the user's query/claim and data stored with respect to previous queries/claims. According to some embodiments, first, second, and/or third numbers (and/or sets of numbers) generated from and/or descriptive of the smart card/metadata, sensor data, and/or natural language data may be compared to numbers stored with respect to smart card/metadata, sensor data, and/or natural language data of previous queries/claims. In some embodiments, the three numbers/sets of numbers may be combined (e.g., mathematically) to form a single combined number or set of numbers representative of the current query/claim, and this single number/set of numbers may be compared to single numbers/sets of numbers stored with respect to previous queries/claims. According to some embodiments, different numbers and/or digits representing different aspects of the various data elements may be weighted by the AI models when generating the numbers and/or during the comparison process. In such a manner, for example, different aspects of the smart card/metadata, sensor data, and/or natural language data may be given higher priority when identifying similarities with previous queries/claims. In some embodiments, one or more previous queries/claims may be identified as similar based upon a mathematical comparison of the numbers. In the case that one or more compared numbers are within a predetermined mathematical confidence threshold, for example, an identification of a similarity may occur.

According to some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise computing (e.g., by the electronic processing device) a query/claim result, at 526. In some embodiments, the result may be based upon one or more results from at least one of the previous queries/claims identified as being similar to the current query/claim. An execution of a claim pricing AI model (e.g., a fifth AI module) by the electronic processing device and utilizing claim payment data stored with respect to the at least one previous insurance claim may, for example, define a resolution for the current query and/or insurance claim. According to some embodiments, the result may be based upon a known result from the at least one previous similar query/claim and based on a degree of similarity between the current query/claim and the at least one previous similar query/claim. In the case that the similarity meets a first threshold of similarity (e.g., a first statistical and/or confidence threshold) the result may comprise a first mathematical variant (e.g., eighty percent (80%)) of the previous result, for example, while in the case that the similarity meets a second threshold of similarity (e.g., a second statistical and/or confidence threshold) the result may comprise a second mathematical variant (e.g., one hundred percent (100%)) of the previous result.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may also or alternatively comprise computing (e.g., by the electronic processing device) a cause of loss (e.g., in the case that the user query comprises a submission of an insurance claim) and/or a likelihood of the query/claim being fraudulent. The AI system may comprise a cause of loss AI model (e.g., a sixth AI module), for example, that conducts a comparing (e.g., upon an execution by the electronic processing device), utilizing at least one of the first, second, and third numbers, and by accessing the database storing data descriptive of the plurality of previous/historic query/claims data, of the current insurance claim to previous insurance claims in which a cause of loss was identified. In some embodiments, the cause of loss AI model may identify (e.g., based on the comparison) one or more similar previous claims and the causes of loss identified for such claim(s). According to some embodiments, the cause of loss AI model may conduct a computing, based on the comparing of the current insurance claim to previous insurance claims in which a cause of loss was identified, of a cause of loss for the current insurance claim. In some embodiments, the cause of loss may be utilized in the computing of the claim result (e.g., at 526) and/or may be utilized to provide cause-specific data and/or guidance to the user (e.g., tips for preventing such type of loss in the future).

According to some embodiments, the AI system may comprise an AI fraud detection model (e.g., a seventh AI module) that conducts a comparing (e.g., upon an execution by the electronic processing device), utilizing at least one of the first, second, and third numbers, and by accessing the database storing data descriptive of the plurality of previous/historic query/claims data, of the current query/claim to previous queries/claims in which fraud had occurred. In some embodiments, the AI fraud detection model may identify (e.g., based on the comparison) one or more similar previous queries/claims in which fraud was previously determined to have occurred. According to some embodiments, the AI fraud detection model may conduct a computing, based on the comparing of the current query/claim to the previous query/claim(s) in which fraud had occurred, of a statistical likelihood that the current query/claim is fraudulent. A degree of similarity (e.g., based on one or more of the computed numeric expressions) between one or more aspects of the current query/claim and the previous fraudulent query/claim may be utilized, in some embodiments, to derive and/or calculate the statistical likelihood, e.g., utilizing a mathematical model defined by the AI fraud detection model.

In some embodiments, the method 500 may comprise transmitting the claim result (e.g., via the wireless electronic network and/or to the mobile electronic device), at 528. The AI system may, for example, send a signal indicative of the result to the mobile electronic device that causes the mobile device application to output an indication of the result to the user. A GUI output by the mobile electronic device may, in some embodiments, provide a visual indication of the resolution for the current query and/or insurance claim. In such a manner, for example, the user may quickly and easily initiate a query/claim utilizing the smart card (e.g., increasing the likelihood of accurate information being submitted), conduct an online chat with an AI-based virtual assistant, upload supporting data (e.g., the sensor data), and receive a visual indication of the result of the submission, all in a timely and less error prone manner than in previous systems. According to some embodiments, the utilization of the multiple (e.g., three (3)) AI modules to process the various inputs and combine them into a single number and/or set of numbers may greatly enhance the accuracy and speed of the results as compared to previous systems.

Referring now to FIG. 6, a systemic flow diagram of a method 600 according to some embodiments is shown. In some embodiments, the method 600 may be performed and/or implemented by and/or otherwise associated with one or more specialized and/or specially-programmed computers (e.g., one or more of the user devices 102a-n, mobile electronic device 202, handheld device 402, the controller device 110, the servers 210, 410, the smart cards 106, 206306, 406, and/or the apparatus 810 of FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and/or FIG. 8 herein), computer terminals, computer servers, computer systems and/or networks, and/or any combinations thereof (e.g., by one or more multi-threaded and/or multi-core processing units of a multivariate AI smart card data processing system).

Numerous embodiments are described in this patent application, and are presented for illustrative purposes only. The described embodiments are not, and are not intended to be, limiting in any sense. The presently disclosed invention(s) are widely applicable to numerous embodiments, as is readily apparent from the disclosure. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the disclosed invention(s) may be practiced with various modifications and alterations, such as structural, logical, software, and electrical modifications. AI though particular features of the disclosed invention(s) may be described with reference to one or more particular embodiments and/or drawings, it should be understood that such features are not limited to usage in the one or more particular embodiments or drawings with reference to which they are described, unless expressly specified otherwise.

Devices that are in communication with each other need not be in continuous communication with each other, unless expressly specified otherwise. On the contrary, such devices need only transmit to each other as necessary or desirable, and may actually refrain from exchanging data most of the time. For example, a machine in communication with another machine via the Internet may not transmit data to the other machine for weeks at a time. In addition, devices that are in communication with each other may communicate directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries.

A description of an embodiment with several components or features does not imply that all or even any of such components and/or features are required. On the contrary, a variety of optional components are described to illustrate the wide variety of possible embodiments of the present invention(s). Unless otherwise specified explicitly, no component and/or feature is essential or required.

Further, although process steps, algorithms or the like may be described in a sequential order, such processes may be configured to work in different orders. In other words, any sequence or order of steps that may be explicitly described does not necessarily indicate a requirement that the steps be performed in that order. The steps of processes described herein may be performed in any order practical. Further, some steps may be performed simultaneously despite being described or implied as occurring non-simultaneously (e.g., because one step is described after the other step). Moreover, the illustration of a process by its depiction in a drawing does not imply that the illustrated process is exclusive of other variations and modifications thereto, does not imply that the illustrated process or any of its steps are necessary to the invention, and does not imply that the illustrated process is preferred.

“Determining” something can be performed in a variety of manners and therefore the term “determining” (and like terms) includes calculating, computing, deriving, looking up (e.g., in a table, database or data structure), ascertaining and the like.

It will be readily apparent that the various methods and algorithms described herein may be implemented by, e.g., appropriately and/or specially-programmed computers and/or computing devices. Typically a processor (e.g., one or more microprocessors) will receive instructions from a memory or like device, and execute those instructions, thereby performing one or more processes defined by those instructions. Further, programs that implement such methods and algorithms may be stored and transmitted using a variety of media (e.g., computer readable media) in a number of manners. In some embodiments, hard-wired circuitry or custom hardware may be used in place of, or in combination with, software instructions for implementation of the processes of various embodiments. Thus, embodiments are not limited to any specific combination of hardware and software

A “processor” generally means any one or more microprocessors, CPU devices, computing devices, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, or like devices, as further described herein.

The term “computer-readable medium” refers to any medium that participates in providing data (e.g., instructions or other information) that may be read by a computer, a processor or a like device. Such a medium may take many forms, including but not limited to, non-volatile media, volatile media, and transmission media. Non-volatile media include, for example, optical or magnetic disks and other persistent memory. Volatile media include DRAM, which typically constitutes the main memory. Transmission media include coaxial cables, copper wire and fiber optics, including the wires that comprise a system bus coupled to the processor. Transmission media may include or convey acoustic waves, light waves and electromagnetic emissions, such as those generated during RF and IR data communications. Common forms of computer-readable media include, for example, a floppy disk, a flexible disk, hard disk, magnetic tape, any other magnetic medium, a CD-ROM, DVD, any other optical medium, punch cards, paper tape, any other physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM, a PROM, an EPROM, a FLASH-EEPROM, any other memory chip or cartridge, a carrier wave, or any other medium from which a computer can read.

The term “computer-readable memory” may generally refer to a subset and/or class of computer-readable medium that does not include transmission media, such as waveforms, carrier waves, electromagnetic emissions, etc. Computer-readable memory may typically include physical media upon which data (e.g., instructions or other information) are stored, such as optical or magnetic disks and other persistent memory, DRAM, a floppy disk, a flexible disk, hard disk, magnetic tape, any other magnetic medium, a CD-ROM, DVD, any other optical medium, punch cards, paper tape, any other physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM, a PROM, an EPROM, a FLASH-EEPROM, any other memory chip or cartridge, computer hard drives, backup tapes, Universal Serial Bus (USB) memory devices, and the like.

Various forms of computer readable media may be involved in carrying data, including sequences of instructions, to a processor. For example, sequences of instruction (i) may be delivered from RAM to a processor, (ii) may be carried over a wireless transmission medium, and/or (iii) may be formatted according to numerous formats, standards or protocols, such as Bluetooth™, TDMA, CDMA, 3G.

Where databases are described, it will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that (i) alternative database structures to those described may be readily employed, and (ii) other memory structures besides databases may be readily employed. Any illustrations or descriptions of any sample databases presented herein are illustrative arrangements for stored representations of information. Any number of other arrangements may be employed besides those suggested by, e.g., tables illustrated in drawings or elsewhere. Similarly, any illustrated entries of the databases represent exemplary information only; one of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the number and content of the entries can be different from those described herein. Further, despite any depiction of the databases as tables, other formats (including relational databases, object-based models and/or distributed databases) could be used to store and manipulate the data types described herein. Likewise, object methods or behaviors of a database can be used to implement various processes, such as the described herein. In addition, the databases may, in a known manner, be stored locally or remotely from a device that accesses data in such a database.

The present invention can be configured to work in a network environment including a computer that is in communication, via a communications network, with one or more devices. The computer may communicate with the devices directly or indirectly, via a wired or wireless medium such as the Internet, LAN, WAN or Ethernet, Token Ring, or via any appropriate communications means or combination of communications means. Each of the devices may comprise computers, such as those based on the Intel® Pentium® or Centrino™ processor, that are adapted to communicate with the computer. Any number and type of machines may be in communication with the computer.

The present disclosure provides, to one of ordinary skill in the art, an enabling description of several embodiments and/or inventions. Some of these embodiments and/or inventions may not be claimed in the present application, but may nevertheless be claimed in one or more continuing applications that claim the benefit of priority of the present application. Applicants intend to file additional applications to pursue patents for subject matter that has been disclosed and enabled but not claimed in the present application.

It will be understood that various modifications can be made to the embodiments of the present disclosure herein without departing from the scope thereof.
