Abstract: A breach detection engine detects and mitigates the effects of breaches across one or more data sources. An index is generated based on one or more data sources and the index is queried using keywords indicative of potential breaches. A database of potential breaches is populated based on the query of the index. The potential breach database is queried using keywords associated with a system identity (e.g., a third party). A likelihood of a candidate breach is identified based on a set of breach criteria weights. A network node associated with a candidate breach determined to be an actual breach is identified for isolation or for the performance of one or more additional security actions.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for controlling two or more vehicles travelling in formation. Selected vehicles may be fully or partially autonomously controlled; at least one vehicle is partially controlled by a human driver. Information is collected at each vehicle and from the drivers and it is shared with other vehicles and drivers to create a shared world model. Aspects of the shared world model may be presented to the human driver, who may then respond with a control input. Autonomy systems and the drivers on the vehicles then collaborate to make a collective decision to act or not to act and execute any such action in a coordinated manner.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of generating a content signature of a textual communication using OCR and text processing. The textual communication is rendered. Text is extracted from the rendered textual communication using OCR. Customization is removed from the text to provide a templatized version of the rendered textual communication that includes de-customized text. The de-customized text is parsed into tokens. Each token includes a respective subset of a plurality of characters. The tokens are converted into respective numbers. Each number is processed using fuzzy hash functions to provide respective hash values associated with the respective token. Representative hash values are selected for the respective fuzzy hash functions by selecting each representative hash value from the hash values that are processed using the respective fuzzy hash function.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that determine whether wait times for attractions of a theme park are shorter or longer than expected and notify guests of these shorter or longer wait times. In particular, the systems and methods determine a wait time value for an attraction by dividing a wait time for the attraction by a total wait time for all attractions of the theme park, and compare the wait time value to one or more threshold values based on an expected wait time for the attraction. In this manner, theme park guests may make a more informed decision on which attraction to wait for, and maximize their time at the theme park.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are female external catheters (“FECs”) and methods thereof. For example, an FEC can include a catheter body, a catheter back, and a connector. The catheter body can include a cavity extending along a length of the catheter body. The cavity is configured to open toward a patient. The catheter back can include a connector hole aligned with an end portion of the cavity. The connector hole can be configured to open away from the patient. The connector is disposed in the connector hole. The connector can include a sump configured to collect urine from the end portion of the cavity for withdrawal from the FEC. In another example, a method of an FEC can includes a method of using the FEC.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to monitoring data in and around a vehicle to predict anomalous, e.g., unsafe, road conditions, and using the data to suggest a corrective action to avoid the unsafe road conditions. A computing device receives information indicative of imagery, sound, or vehicle operation via sensors and/or cameras mounted in or near a vehicle. The information may be received via the vehicle itself or via a device. The computing device then determines whether there is an indication of an anomalous road condition. The computing device also receives vehicle operation data extracted from one or more vehicle sensors. The computing device then determines whether there is an indication of unsafe road conditions, and if there is, the computing device may output a notice or alert via a notification system to alert the driver.

For each of a plurality of subject items of the subject data item sequence, the facility: selects a first contiguous series of items of the subject data item sequence immediately before the subject data item; selects a second contiguous series of items of the subject data item sequence immediately after the subject data item; and applies the trained relationship model to the selected first and second contiguous series of data items to obtain a denoised version of the subject data item. The facility then assembles the obtained denoised subject data items into a denoised data item sequence.
