  • Patent number: 11681606
    Abstract: One or more processors examine source code of one or more software packages that produce output messages and identify, in the source code, one or more call expressions that each represent a logging call. The one or more processors generate a number of search patterns for parsing output messages produced by the one or more software packages, wherein each of the search patterns is based on one or more arguments of a corresponding call expression of the one or more call expressions. The one or more processors further reduce the number of search patterns to be applied to the output messages produced by the one or more software packages to identify log entries among the output messages.

  • Publication number: 20230179615
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for detecting a cybersecurity breach. The cybersecurity breach may be a synthetic account or an account having been subjected to an account takeover. Electronic account data representative of accounts is obtained in which a first group of the accounts includes accounts flagged as being associated with the breach, and a second group of the accounts includes a remainder of the accounts. The computer system generates from the account data nodes representing the accounts and edges based on account metadata that connect the nodes. The computer system determines, such as by applying a link analysis method to the nodes and edges, a ranking of the accounts of at least part of the second group indicative of a likelihood that those accounts are also associated with the cybersecurity breach. That ranking may be used to identify which of those accounts is also identified with the cybersecurity breach.

  • Patent number: 11653986
    Abstract: A robotic surgery system includes a control unit assembly that supports and operates one or more robotic tools and a mechanical arm assembly that movably supports the control unit assembly in space. The mechanical arm assembly includes a boom assembly with one or more boom arms rotatably coupled to each other via one or more joints and having one or more actuators. An elevating linkage assembly is coupled to the boom assembly and has an actuator operable to allow vertical movement of the control unit assembly in a substantially weightless manner. Yaw and pitch control assemblies are interposed between the elevating linkage assembly and the control unit assembly and have actuators operable to allow movement of the control unit assembly in yaw and pitch. The one or more actuators are actuatable to allow movement of the control unit assembly in space upon actuation of one or more user interfaces of the control unit assembly.

  • Publication number: 20230076902
    Abstract: Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method includes receiving a connect presenter request from a presenter application, the connect presenter request identifying a remote control session (RCS); establishing a RCS presenter connection with the presenter application; receiving a connect remote controller request from a remote controller application, the connect remote controller request identifying the RCS; and establishing a RCS remote controller connection with the remote controller application. The method further includes receiving, over the RCS remote controller connection, a remote controller-to-server command message defining a remote control command. In response, a server-to-presenter command message is generated which includes command data in respect of the remote control command. The server-to-presenter command message is then communicated to the presenter application over the RCS presenter connection.

  • Publication number: 20230076243
    Abstract: An automated machine learning approach and toolkit is developed for evaluating the causal impact of an event. This approach includes data generation, optimal model selection, model stability evaluation and model explanation. An example approach includes: generating predictive output data of physical geospatial objects is proposed whereby a first data set representative of geospatial event-based data and a second data set representative of the characteristics of the physical geospatial objects are spatially joined together and utilized to generate a causal graph data model that is then provided for at least one of a trained regression machine learning model, a trained causal machine learning model, and a trained similarity machine learning model to generate the predictive output data representative of event-adjusted characteristics of the physical geospatial objects.

  • Patent number: 11460170
    Abstract: A luminaire includes a lightguide panel that is configured to receive light from a light source through an edge thereof and emit light through major surfaces thereof. Further, the luminaire includes an electrochromic film that is disposed on one of the major surfaces of the lightguide panel to adjust an amount of light exiting through the one major surface by controlling an opacity of the electrochromic film. The opacity of the electrochromic film is controlled by controlling an electrical power supplied thereto. In another example, the electrochromic film is disposed on a major surface of a lens that is disposed below and spaced apart from a light source that emits light in a first direction. The opacity of the electrochromic film is controlled by controlling the electrical power supplied thereto to adjust an amount of light that is reflected by the lens to a second direction.
