Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to online advertisement campaign recommendations. A server may obtain data from an events datastore indicative of missing time slices from a partition of events data. The server may obtain first events data for the missing time slices. The server may identify redundant events data in the first events data that is redundant to second events data stored in the events datastore. The server may delete the redundant events data from the first events data to generate a modified first events data. The server may transmit the modified first events data to the events datastore.

Abstract: A computing device computes a risk score for a user using a device based on a peer group identifier. Network activity measures characterize use of the device by the user. For each unique peer group identifier included in netflow records, a mean value is computed of each network activity measure. For each unique IP address and user identifier combination included in the netflow records, the mean value of each network activity measure is selected for a peer group identifier of the user; a risk score is computed by comparing each network activity measure for the unique IP address and user identifier combination to the selected mean value for the respective network activity measure; and when the risk score exceeds a predefined alert threshold, a high risk alert indicator is set indicating that the device is being used in an anomalous manner relative to other devices monitored by the computing device.

Abstract: A system to present secure expandable advertisements using an API and cross-domain communication.

Abstract: Variable-density soles for articles of footwear and methods for constructing said soles are provided herein. In one embodiment, a variable-density sole for a footwear article comprises a first layer comprising a first density coupled to a bottom surface of an upper of the article of footwear; and a second layer comprising a second density greater than the density of the first layer, wherein the first layer is physically coupled to the second layer forming an interface between the layers. In this way, comfort of the article of footwear may be increased while decreasing the weight of the article of footwear. Further, forming the variable-density sole includes directly molding the first layer to a strobel board, stitching the strobel board to an upper, and injecting the second layer to the upper with the strobel board and the first layer. In this way, the production of a footwear article is simplified.

Abstract: A device for the treatment of bruxism may include an articulation plate worn on one of the upper or lower jaw and a bite plate worn on the other of the upper or lower jaw, coupled by posts extending from one of the bite plate or articulation plate into housings in the other of the bite plate or articulation plate. First articulating components on one of the bite plate or articulation plate may engage second articulating components on the other of the bite plate or articulation plate to allow for 360 degree articulating motion. Removable bite pads between the bite plate and the teeth received in the bite plate, and/or between the articulation plate and the teeth received in the articulation plate may provide cushioning and impact absorption, and may be removed and replaced to promote good oral hygiene and avoid excessive wear.
