Abstract: A technique for threat response associated with an endpoint detection and response (EDR) system. The system uses a combination of automated observable detection, threat intelligence enrichment, graph analysis, and supervised machine learning to machine-predict analyst behavior in classifying (as ‘true’ or ‘false’ positives) the EDR alerts, and to support either (i) automated suppression of those alerts that the system classifies with sufficient confidence as either true or false, or (ii) for those alerts than cannot be so classified, the providing of recommendations to analysts to facilitate their activities. Auto-detection of observables for graph-based feature detection, together with the automated disposition of alerts where possible greatly reduces overall analyst workload for the EDR system.

Abstract: An embodiment searches source for callable units, and scans the contents of the callable units, and generates a set of unit groups that each include one or more of the callable units. The embodiment preprocesses the callable units and then generates hashes of each of the callable units. The embodiment generates a data structure comprising unit identifiers associated with the hashes and their corresponding callable units. The embodiment generates statistical data using a callable-unit metric and updates the data structure by prioritizing the callable units based on the statistical data. The embodiment compares hashes of the callable units and identifies first and second callable units as redundant callable units. The embodiment updates the data structure by identifying the second callable unit as being redundant to the first callable unit. The embodiment generates a report of redundant callable units based on the data structure.

The washer can thermally isolate the support rod and the first thermal stage.

Abstract: A processor may initiate a recording. The processor may segment the recording into one or more segments. The processor may determine, based on the identification of a primary object in a first segment of the recording, a first bit rate for the first segment of the first recording. The processor may preload one or more subsequent segments that include the primary object at the first bit rate. The processor may preload each of the one or more subsequent segments with a secondary object at a second bit rate. The second bit rate may be lower than the first bit rate. The processor may display the recording to the user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for distributing packets for asymmetrical traffic by a network interface card (NIC). The computer-implemented method includes obtaining information of an incoming packet incoming from a source endpoint behind a stateful service and accessing a destination endpoint using a network address translation (NAT) service, hashing the information to calculate queue identification for the packet to direct the packet to the queue associated therewith, executing a NAT on an outgoing packet associated with the incoming packet to allow for retrieval of the queue identification from a header of the outgoing packet, sending the outgoing packet to the destination endpoint, which is responsive with a return packet, stamping the queue identification to the return packet upon the return packet being transmitted back from the destination endpoint and the queue identification being retrieved and instantiating an RSS override operation to redirect the return packet to the queue on the response.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program product. The embodiments include a method for three-dimensional printing of an object. The method provides for one or more processors to receive image data of an object to print. The one or more processors receive a position of a light-emitting robot inserted within photosensitive material. The one or more processors initiate movement of the light-emitting robot within the photosensitive material. The one or more processors control navigation of the light-emitting robot through the photosensitive material, based on continual feedback of the position of the light-emitting robot within photosensitive material and the received image data of the object to print, and the one or more processors control activation and deactivation of emitted light of the light-emitting robot, based on the image data of the object to print, wherein the emitted light of the light-emitting robot solidifies the photosensitive material.

Abstract: A flexible curtain defines a major surface and is configured to repeatedly actuate to move between a deployed configuration and a stowed configuration. Two sensors are configured to detect different condition and are removably attached to two sensor attachment locations. The major surface extends across an operational surface of a target system such that the sensors detect the conditions of the target system when the flexible curtain defines the deployed configuration. The flexible curtain and the sensors converge at a predetermined edge of the flexible curtain to expose the operational surface of the target system when the flexible curtain defines the stowed configuration.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for quantifying physical qualities of a ball returned by a player using a loop drive technique, such as in table tennis, and generating a corresponding quantitative summary of the overall quality of the loop drive technique based on the quantified physical qualities. Image processing techniques are applied to historical video recordings of balls returned using loop drive techniques to quantify physical properties of said balls. A machine learning model is generated using the quantified physical properties to determine relative significance of specific qualities and their corresponding quantified values to the overall quality or success of loop drive techniques, such as in table tennis matches.
