20110137816 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING A COLLABORATION RECOMMENDATION - In a recruitment context, it can be difficult to determine the best third-party recruiter to help fill an open job. The disclosed system includes a recommendation engine that determines the best recruiter to help fill an open job, either for another recruiter to collaborate in a split-fee placement or for an employer having the opening. For a given candidate or job opening that becomes available and that is represented by a given user, the system analyzes disparate work information from users' transactional systems, including various criteria about their past transactions (job placements, geography, timeliness, etc.) and their current candidates to produce a recommendation. The user representing the subject candidate or job opening may then be notified of potential other users, and connected with them through an online system, in order to complete a collaborative placement. | 06-09-2011 |
20120072500 | AUTOMATIC TRACKING OF CONTACT INTERACTIONS - In the context of recruitment and sales, it is difficult to ensure that there is a consistent level of activity tracking that occurs in a Customer Relationship Management or Applicant Tracking System (CRM/ATS, tracking application, or tracking system) from one user (e.g., recruiter or sales representative) to another within a single firm. This is due in large part to the manual and time consuming mechanics of logging the activity. Example embodiments of the present invention include a mail server component that automatically logs such activity. The system determines who the email is being sent to and from, as well as whether the email contains calendar event (e.g., appointment) information. The system then searches a database to determine if the recipients of the email message are contacts in the tracking application. If a match is found, the message is automatically added to the contacts activity record as either an inbound email, outbound email, or appointment. Activity tracking is, thus, consistently maintained among all users, ensuring a higher quality of activity-based metrics. | 03-22-2012 |
20120084313 | REMOTE ACCESS TO TRACKING SYSTEM CONTACT INFORMATION - In the context of tracking systems, it is difficult to ensure that an organization has a complete, accurate database of contacts stored in its tracking system. When tracking systems users are required to manage exporting and importing of contacts from their desktop mail clients and handheld devices, it is almost certain that contact information will not be kept up-to-date and that confidence in the accuracy of the contact information will not be high. By enabling a remote directory access portal in the tracking system, all users can be assured that they have available the latest contact information for the organizations' contacts. In addition to providing directory access, the tracking system can authenticate users and, based on the users' entitlements, authorize users' access to specific contacts. | 04-05-2012 |

20090274219 | DYNAMICALLY MODIFYING VIDEO AND CODING BEHAVIOR - A system and method that provides a connection path between a video source such as a personal computer (PC) and a high-definition television (HDTV). A control is provided for varying a quality level of a video signal with respect to latency of activities provided through the video signal channel. Output picture quality versus latency is adjusted on a dynamic basis. Observed mouse activities causes the output picture quality to be decreased rapidly with an attendant decrease in latency. A decrease in output picture quality and latency is maintained until the occurrence of a particular event, such as the expiration of a time interval from a last observed mouse event. If a limited number of mouse events are observed, then the output picture quality is increased to a point at which the limited mouse activity can be accommodated with an acceptable level of latency. If limited or no mouse events are observed for a given period of time, the output picture quality is increased, either rapidly or gradually, until output picture quality is restored or another mouse event is observed. | 11-05-2009 |
20090276812 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOCAL BROADCASTING - A video controller broadcasts input video through a premises media, such as a coaxial cable to one or more premises televisions or television channels. When a PC provides the input video, a mode change may occur to direct the video to the PC monitor or to the broadcast output. The video resolution of the PC is set to provide a desired digital television resolution with broadcast video. An audio driver may be used to provide USB audio output from the PC. When the PC monitor or broadcast output is selected for video output, the non-selected output is disabled or provided with a video indication that another video output is active. An EDID can be captured from the PC or PC monitor to assist with mode changes and setting PC video resolution. The input video may be provided directly from a digital video source and broadcast to selected televisions or channels. | 11-05-2009 |

The system traces the identified data field through stages of the parallel data flow and determines a score value for the identified data field based on operations performed on the identified data field during traversal of the stages. The system compresses the identified data field based on the score value indicating a performance gain with respect to the compressed data field. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for selectively compressing data fields in a parallel data flow in substantially the same manners described above. | 10-29-2015 |

20140058763 | Fraud detection methods and systems - An unsupervised statistical analytics approach to detecting fraud utilizes cluster analysis to identify specific clusters of claims or transactions for additional investigation, or utilizes association rules as tripwires to identify outliers. The clusters or sets of rules define a “normal” profile for the claims or transactions used to filter out normal claims, leaving “not normal” claims for potential investigation. To generate clusters or association rules, data relating to a sample set of claims or transactions may be obtained, and a set of variables used to discover patterns in the data that indicate a normal profile. New claims may be filtered, and not normal claims analyzed further. Alternatively, patterns for both a normal profile and an anomalous profile may be discovered, and a new claim filtered by the normal filter. If the claim is “not normal” it may be further filtered to detect potential fraud. | 02-27-2014 |
20140200930 | Methods and Systems for Determining the Importance of Individual Variables in Statistical Models - Methods and systems for determining the importance of each of the variables, or combinations of variables, that contribute to the overall score generated by a predictive statistical model are presented. In a specialized case, for each variable in the model, an importance is calculated based on the calculated slope and deviance of the predictive variable. In a more general case, for each variable in the model, an importance is calculated based on setting that variable to have the average value for the data set, and then calculating the change in score. The totality of variables (or combinations thereof) is then ranked by the Δscore, or a magnitude of it, such as |Δscore|. | 07-17-2014 |

20130094622 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZATION OF NETWORKED FIRE ALARM PANELS - A system and method for synchronizing a plurality of networked fire alarm panels is disclosed. A plurality of fire panels (i.e., nodes) are arranged on a peer-to-peer network, such as a token ring network. One node is designated as a SyncHost, and the remaining nodes are periodically reset to the clock time associated with the SyncHost to ensure all nodes remain substantially synchronized to a single time. Upon alarm, the visual notification devices (i.e., strobe lights) of all the fire panels (nodes) will flash at substantially the same time. To accomplish the synchronization, the SyncHost sends periodic attendance polls around the network, noting the transit times of the polls. The nodes also note times associated with the polls. The SyncHost sends a sync message to the nodes, and each of the nodes resets its clock according to the sync message and internal compensations. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed. | 04-18-2013 |
