Abstract: Techniques are provided for intrusion detection on a computer system. In an example, a computer host device is configured to access data storage of the computer system via a communications network. It can be determined that the computer host device is behaving anomalously because a first current access by the computer host device to the data storage deviates from a second expected access by the computer host device to the data storage by more than a predefined amount. Then, in response to determining that the computer host device is behaving anomalously, the computer system can mitigate against the computer host device behaving anomalously.

Abstract: The disclosure provides for a method for generating an ultrasound image that includes transmitting, by a plurality of transmitters in a transducer, at least two transmit beams at different angles, where at least parts of the transmit beams cover an overlapping region, and receiving, by a plurality of sensors of the transducer, reflected signals of the transmit beams. The method further comprises calculating channel coherence for the received signals to produce one or more channel coherence images, and calculating transmit coherence for the received signals to produce one or more transmit coherence images. The information from at least one of the channel coherence images and at least one of the transmit coherence images are combined to identify moving objects. The received signals from different transmits in overlapping regions are then processed to produce a final image that is compensated for the moving objects.

Abstract: A system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor configure the processor to receive first data from a first set of sensors arranged in a first configuration. The instructions configure the processor to transform the first data to a second data to train a model to recognize third data captured by a second set of sensors arranged in a second configuration. The second configuration is different than the first configuration. The instructions configure the processor to train the model based on the second set of sensors sensing the second data to recognize the third data captured by the second set of sensors arranged in the second configuration.

Abstract: Implementations can receive audio data corresponding to a spoken utterance of a user, process the audio data to generate a plurality of speech hypotheses, determine an action to be performed by an automated assistant based on the speech hypotheses, and cause the computing device to render an indication of the action. In response to the computing device rendering the indication, implementations can receive additional audio data corresponding to an additional spoken utterance of the user, process the additional audio data to determine that a portion of the spoken utterance is similar to an additional portion of the additional spoken utterance, supplant the action with an alternate action, and cause the automated assistant to initiate performance of the alternate action. Some implementations can determine whether to render the indication of the action based on a confidence level associated with the action.
