20140258246 | RECOGNIZING AND COMBINING REDUNDANT MERCHANT DEISGNATIONS IN A TRANSACTION DATABASE - Determining whether two merchant location database entries are describing the same merchant location. A subject merchant location database entry and comparison candidate merchant location database entries include a DBA name field, a street address field, and one or more additional descriptive fields descriptive of one or more predetermined characteristics of the respective merchant location. The subject merchant location database entry is compared to a set populated with candidate merchant location database entries, candidates having a predetermined minimum textural similarity with the subject merchant location database entry on the basis of each entry's DBA name field or street address field. The subject merchant location database entry is compared with each of the candidate database entries on the basis of the one or more additional descriptive fields, and a logistic regression is performed using the results of the comparing, in order to calculate a probability that the database entries refer to the same merchant location. | 09-11-2014 |
20140330690 | MERCHANT CONTINUITY CORRECTION USING CARDHOLDER LOYALTY INFORMATION - A computer-implemented method of maintaining continuity of transaction data associated with a merchant within a payment card network includes identifying new merchant IDs and associated new merchant information from a database, the new merchant IDs and associated new transactions generated after a predetermined timestamp; and identifying discontinued merchant IDs and associated discontinued merchant information from the database, the discontinued merchant IDs associated only with older transactions generated before the predetermined timestamp and thus appearing to have been discontinued after the predetermined timestamp.

20160117689 | PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR ASSIGNING A MATCH CONFIDENCE METRIC FOR INFERRED MATCH MODELING - Systems, methods, means, computer program code and computerized processes include receiving a first set of de-identified transaction data from a first transaction data source, receiving a second set of de-identified transaction data from a second transaction data source, removing data associated with an identifier field for each of the transactions in the first data set to created a de-identified first data set, removing data associated with an identifier field for each of the transactions in the second data set to create a de-identified second data set, and processing the first and second de-identified data sets using a probabilistic engine to establish a linkage between data in each data set. The probabilistic engine may assign probability scores to pairs of data profiles based on two-way matching of transactions and based at least partly on matching of transactions to nearest neighbors. | 04-28-2016 |
