  • Publication number: 20210400296
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and computer-program products are provided for adding and decoding data to a digital video signal in a visually imperceptible manner. For example, an encoded video frame can be obtained, and one or more blocks of the encoded video frame can be decoded. Binary data can be added to a subset of pixels from a set of pixels of the one or more blocks. For instance, a pixel component can be modulated to add the binary data. The one or more blocks can be re-encoded using at least one coding mode. The re-encoded one or more blocks can be added to the encoded video frame.

  • Patent number: 11206317
    Abstract: A system designed for increasing network communication speed for users, while lowering network congestion for content owners and ISPs. The system employs network elements including an acceleration server, clients, agents, and peers, where communication requests generated by applications are intercepted by the client on the same machine. The IP address of the server in the communication request is transmitted to the acceleration server, which provides a list of agents to use for this IP address. The communication request is sent to the agents. One or more of the agents respond with a list of peers that have previously seen some or all of the content which is the response to this request (after checking whether this data is still valid).

  • Patent number: 11194811
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method processes a query on instances of an object of an object-oriented environment. The object has a root object and member fields which are sub-objects of the root object. The root object and each sub-object correspond to an entity represented by and stored in form of a table. The method includes analyzing the query to identify those objects which are necessary to execute the query. For each of the primary key values of a table corresponding to a root object, the method includes: (i) generating an instance of the object by populating the member fields of those objects which have been identified as necessary in said analyzing step with data identified by the respective primary key in their corresponding tables; (ii) executing the query on the generated object instance; and (iii) adding the query result to a result accumulator storage.

  • Patent number: 11188404
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of data concurrent recovery for a distributed storage system, that is, a method for synchronous repair of multiple failed nodes with a minimum recovery bandwidth when a node in a distributed storage system fails. First an assistant node is selected to get helper data sub-block, then the repair matrix related to the data block stored in the node to be repaired is constructed, and finally the lost data block is reconstructed by multiplying the repair matrix and the helper data helper data sub-block; the missing data block is reconstructed by decoding, wherein the node to be recovered includes all failed systematical nodes, or all or partly failed parity nodes. The method is applicable to concurrently recover multiple failed nodes at minimal recovery bandwidth, and the nodes to be recovered are selected according to the demand to reduce the recovery bandwidth as much as possible.

  • Patent number: 11190374
    Abstract: A method for fetching a content from a web server to a client device is disclosed, using tunnel devices serving as intermediate devices. The tunnel device is selected based on an attribute, such as IP Geolocation. A tunnel bank server stores a list of available tunnels that may be used, associated with values of various attribute types. The tunnel devices initiate communication with the tunnel bank server, and stays connected to it, for allowing a communication session initiated by the tunnel bank server. Upon receiving a request from a client to a content and for specific attribute types and values, a tunnel is selected by the tunnel bank server, and is used as a tunnel for retrieving the required content from the web server, using standard protocol such as SOCKS, WebSocket or HTTP Proxy. The client only communicates with a super proxy server that manages the content fetching scheme.

  • Patent number: 11188916
    Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein provides methods for detecting and mitigating fraudulent transactions conducted over a network. This method can access one or more data values associated with an online transaction between a first party and a second party. The first party can initiate the online transaction. The data values can characterize an identity of the first party and the second party. A score representing a likelihood that the online transaction is fraudulent can be generated. The generation of the score can be based on one or more models for detecting fraud using the data values. The score can be compared to one or more threshold scores. The online transaction can be authorized or rejected based on the comparing. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 11178250
    Abstract: A method for fetching a content from a web server to a client device is disclosed, using tunnel devices serving as intermediate devices. The client device accesses an acceleration server to receive a list of available tunnel devices. The requested content is partitioned into slices, and the client device sends a request for the slices to the available tunnel devices. The tunnel devices in turn fetch the slices from the data server, and send the slices to the client device, where the content is reconstructed from the received slices. A client device may also serve as a tunnel device, serving as an intermediate device to other client devices. Similarly, a tunnel device may also serve as a client device for fetching content from a data server. The selection of tunnel devices to be used by a client device may be in the acceleration server, in the client device, or in both.
