Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for processing risk mitigation controls. The system analyzes text to determine control components located within the text, where the text defines one or more measures to provide assurance of compliance with organizational process requirements. The system further maps, by machine learning models, the control components to a process executable model workflow based on corresponding control code. Upon receiving a trigger, the system automatically instantiates the process model workflow and executes tasks of the control code, monitors a status of the tasks, captures an audit record of the execution and streams the audit record to an uneditable archive.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for correlating one or more service areas of a network with one or more geolocation coordinates to determine available services for customers to the network. A service polygon may be generated that define an area in which a particular service offered by a communications network is available. The boundaries of the service polygons may be adjusted based on information corresponding to physical features of the initial area. The service polygons may aid a communications network in providing a list of available services to potential customers or devices connected to the network by determining one or more geolocation coordinate values of a potential connection site and comparing the values to the service polygons. A network management system may determine the available services, current or in the future, to offer such services to a customer to the network.

Abstract: A technique identifies regions of an image characterized by constant pixel intensity in a resource-efficient, latency-efficient, and scalable manner. The technique involves: obtaining a candidate image; determining whether the candidate image contains a contiguous region of pixels having intensity values within a specified range of intensity values; assessing whether the contiguous region satisfies a prescribed test; and selecting or excluding the candidate image for further processing based on a result of the assessing. The operation of determining involve two phases. First, the technique determines a distribution of intensity values within the candidate image. Second, the technique leverages the distribution to search the candidate image for neighboring pixels having intensity values within the specified range of intensity values, beginning from a selected starting pixel in a qualifying subset of pixels.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for facilitating segmentation of training data using measures of statistical dispersion (e.g., Gini impurities) of dataset features. The system determines, from a training dataset, a target feature and candidate features. The system determines, for the target feature in relation to each candidate feature, first Gini impurities. The system selects a first and second feature having the lowest first Gini impurities. The system determines, for the target feature in relation to a first combination of the first and second features, a second Gini impurity. If the second Gini impurity does not satisfy a threshold, the system selects a third feature having the next lowest first Gini impurity and determines a third Gini impurity for a second combination of the first, second, and third features. If the third Gini impurity satisfies the threshold, the system trains a model using the target, first, second, and third features.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and use-cases of multi-modal authentications and content distribution are presented. A content consumer can capture a multi-modal digital representation of multiple objects where a juxtaposition of features derived from the digital representation can be used to recognize that at least some of the objects are a valid authentication object. Upon authentication, an authentication agent determines a content access level for content associated with the corresponding to the juxtaposition. The content can then be presented on an electronic device, possibly within a secure virtual machine, according to the content access level.

Abstract: A clamp for holding firearms by use of a mounting rail system, such as arca or picatinny, where the rail is held securely in the clamp by a sliding jaw tightened with a knob. The clamp is formed from an arm which itself is held securely within a vise that can be mounted to any suitable surface. The use of a cylindrical arm to form the clamp allows the clamp and firearm to be rotated in the vertical plane. Mounting the vise on a swivel allows for rotation in the horizontal plane. Together, this system provides a user with a stable, infinitely adjustable mounting mechanism that does not affect barrel harmonics.
