In accordance with various embodiments, a system and method for assisting in

determining investor identity based on monitoring trading activity of the most influential investors

is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method is configured to perform an initial “set-up” process,

during which investor profiles of known and unknown investors are obtained and analyzed to

establish investor (shareholder) baseline, iteratively monitor features associated with the profiles

by utilizing a Temporal Attention Mechanism (TAM), and, finally, determine a set of likely

investor candidates whose holdings have likely changed along with relevant investment, market,

and economic data. Further still, the method is configured to present the set of investor candidates

to an operator user (e.g., a financial analyst, CEO/CFO) who then may finalize investor candidacy

by attributing buying/selling behavior.

System and method for Alerting that a vehicle will arrive at a point-of-interest within a predetermined time interval

US 20110153143

A system alerts a user that a vehicle will arrive at a point of interest within a predetermined time interval and includes a vehicle-mounted assembly and a remote assembly. The vehicle-mounted assembly includes a location-determining device connected to the vehicle for determining the location of the vehicle, and a first communication device connected to the location-determining device for sending data comprising the location of the vehicle over a communications network. The remote assembly includes a second communication device for receiving the data from the first communication device over a communications network, and a computing device in communication with the second communication device for computing a time-geofence, and for alerting the user. The time-geofence corresponds to a boundary that if the location of the vehicle is within the boundary the vehicle will arrive at the point of interest at earlier than the expiration of a predetermined interval, and if the vehicle is outside the boundary the vehicle will arrive at the point of interest at later than the expiration of a predetermined interval.

Machine yield data can be provided to a remote fleet revenue assessment system (FRAS) that can be configured to determine a machine revenue metric for a plurality of machines in a fleet. By way of example, the revenue metric can be in the form of a revenue ratio. Machine revenue metrics can be aggregated to provide a fleet revenue metric to which machine revenue metrics can be compared to identify underperforming machines. Based on a machine metric, a determination can be made as to whether machine operation should be altered to improve revenue production.

Fleet management revenue assurance

WO 2012078562 

Methods and systems for automatic inventorying and reporting of field operations are presented. The invention provides a method for automatically reporting the completion of a field harvest or product application. An apparatus data unit can transmit apparatus location and state data to a central inventory system (CIS), preferably embodied as a central server. The CIS can convert the apparatus data to agricultural elements that can be mapped to a business state for a particular field. The CIS can provide a report of the field business state to an administrative service for scheduling or billing purposes. The invention provides a layer of abstraction so that a report recipient need not have familiarity with agricultural terms in order to perform administrative tasks related to field and fleet management. The invention enables resource management and billing services to be performed in a timely, efficient and accurate manner.
