  • Publication number: 20250150254
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for homomorphic computation enables secure computation of determinants of a matrix under Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). According to this disclosure, encrypted data that contains the values of a matrix is received at a server. The matrix is separated into at least a first portion, and a second portion. Each portion is configured as a square. A first data vector of ciphertext is computed for the first portion, and a second data vector of ciphertext is computed for the second portion. Under FHE, determinants of the first and second data vectors are computed as Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) operations to generate a set of results. The set of results are then used to compute a determinant of the matrix. The determinant may then be used for FHE-based analytics.

    Abstract: A computer implemented method processes alerts. A computer system creates a representation of an alert received for processing. The computer system determines a similarity of the alert with previously processed alerts using the representation of the alert and representations of the previously processed alerts. A first evaluator in the computer system evaluates an alert level for the alert based on previously processed similar alerts in response to the similarity being above a similarity threshold for similar alerts. A second evaluator in the computer system evaluates, the alert level for the alert using a machine learning model in response to the similarity not being above the similarity threshold.

The second SFQ clock signal can have the same frequency as the first SFQ clock signal. The system can define, for each pair of SFQ clock signals, a first clock cycle and a second clock cycle based on the first SFQ clock signal and the second SFQ clock signal. The second clock cycle can be greater than the first clock cycle. The system can assign the first and second clock cycles to different stages of a pipeline based on delays by the different stages.

  • Patent number: 12290384
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a two-layer adhesive and methods of using the same to secure an electronic device to an organism. In a non-limiting embodiment of the invention, a surface of the organism is coated with a first adhesive layer (bottom layer). The first adhesive layer is cured and a surface of the cured first adhesive layer is coated with a second adhesive layer (top layer). An electronic device is positioned on the second adhesive layer prior to curing the second adhesive layer. The second adhesive layer is then cured, thereby embedding the electronic device within the second adhesive layer. The bottom layer and the top layer are selected such that the bottom layer releases upon exposure to a first solvent after a first duration and the top layer releases upon exposure to a second solvent after a second duration more than the first duration.
