  • Patent number: 11954174
    Abstract: A computerized-method for scaling automatic deployment of a machine-learning detection model in a cloud-based managed analytics service by knowledge sharing to overcome an imbalanced dataset learning problem. The computerized-method includes: sending the received data to machine-learning models to synthesize patterns of the received data to yield a differential privacy data; maintaining in the database the differential privacy data of one or more on-prem cloud-based managed analytics services to generate a consortium shared synthetic data lake; operating phases of machine-learning detection model based on the received data and data in the database to create a packaged model. The data in the database is aggregated and used during the operating phases of the machine-learning detection model to create a packaged model for other on-prem cloud-based managed analytics services, thus overcoming imbalanced dataset learning thereof, and after the packaged model is created it is automatically deployed on-prem.

  • Patent number: 11941043
    Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying areas of interest in an image and management of images are disclosed. To manage identification of areas of interest in an image, subject matter expert driven processes may be used to identify the areas of interest. The identified areas of interest may be used to maintain a database usable to guide subsequent use of the images. The database may associate image segments of the images with various landmarks and/or area of interest. The associations may be used to limit the quantity of image segments read from storage during subsequent use of the images.

  • Patent number: 11934930
    Abstract: An inference system applies a machine-learning transformer model to a batch of requests with variable input length or variable target length or variable internal state length by selectively batching a subset of operations in the transformer model but processing requests in the batch individually for a subset of operations in the transformer model. In one embodiment, the operation to be processed individually is an attention operation of an encoder or a decoder of the transformer model. By selective batching, the inference system can allow batching operations to be performed for a batch of requests with variable input or target length or internal state length to utilize the parallel computation capabilities of hardware accelerators while preventing unnecessary computations that occur for workarounds that restrain the data of a batch of requests to a same length.

  • Patent number: 11860675
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for latent summarization of a graph. Structural features can be captured from feature vectors associated with each node of the graph by applying base functions on the feature vectors and iteratively applying relational operators to successive feature matrices to derive deeper inductive relational functions that capture higher-order structural information in different subgraphs of increasing size (node separations). Heterogeneity can be summarized by performing capturing features in appropriate subgraphs (e.g., node-centric neighborhoods associated with each node type, edge direction, and/or edge type). Binning and/or dimensionality reduction can be applied to the resulting feature matrices.

  • Patent number: 11853367
    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling analysts and other users of an IT operations platform to identify certain data objects managed by the platform (for example, events, files, notes, actions results, etc.) as “evidence” when such data objects are believed to be of particular significance to an investigation or other matter. For example, an event generated based on data ingested from an anti-virus service and representing a security-related incident might include artifacts indicating an asset identifier, a hash value of a suspected malicious file, a file path on the infected endpoint, and so forth. An analyst can use various interfaces and interface elements of an IT operations platform to indicate which of such events and/or artifacts, if any, represent evidence in the context of the investigation that the analyst is conducting. In response, the IT operations platform can perform various automated actions.

  • Patent number: 11817201
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing an imaging discovery utility for augmenting clinical image management. In some embodiments, in response to receiving a request for a first medical image file(s) from a requesting device, a non-relational (“NoSQL”) data management system (“DMS”) may access a NoSQL database containing, inter alia, a plurality of medical image files that are mirrored copies of a plurality of medical image files stored in a relational (“SQL”) database, the medical image files each being organized in an image-centric hierarchy with image data being at a top level and patient information associated with the image data being at a lower level. Based on a successful search of the NoSQL database based on search terms in the request, the NoSQL DMS may identify a corresponding second medical image(s) in the SQL database, and may retrieve and send (to the requesting device) the identified second medical image(s).

Via the ongoing scan, a usage frequency for each mapped file directory is determined. A heat map is generated for each mapped file directory, according to usage frequency, using a randomized meta-heuristic. A request is received for a software discovery scan result. The software discovery scan, based on the heat map, is performed in response to the request. The result of the software discovery scan is provided to a user.

  • Patent number: 11768866
    Abstract: In some examples, dark web content analysis and identification may include ascertaining data that includes text and images, and analyzing the data by performing deep learning based text and image processing to extract text embedded in the images, and deep embedded clustering to generate clusters. Clusters that are to be monitored may be ascertained from the generated clusters. A determination may be made as to whether the ascertained data is sufficient for classification. If so, a deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGAN) based detector may be utilized to analyze further data with respect to the ascertained clusters, and alternatively, a convolutional neural network (CNN) based detector may be utilized to analyze the further data with respect to the ascertained clusters. Based on the analysis of the further data, an operation associated with a website related to the further data may be controlled.
