  • Patent number: 12039463
    Abstract: An example computer-implemented method includes receiving agricultural data records comprising a first set of yield properties for a first set of seeds grown in a first set of environments, and receiving genetic feature data related to a second set of seeds. The method further includes generating a second set of yield properties for the second set of seeds associated with a second set of environments by applying a model using the genetic feature data and the agricultural data records. In addition, the method includes determining predicted yield performance for a third set of seeds associated with one or more target environments by applying the second set of yield properties, and generating seed recommendations for the one or more target environments based on the predicted yield performance for the third set of seeds. In the present example, the method also includes causing display of the seed recommendations.

  • Patent number: 12041095
    Abstract: A computer method and system for mitigating Domain Name System (DNS) misuse using a probabilistic data structure, such as a cuckoo filter. Intercepted is network traffic flowing from one or more external hosts to a computer network, the intercepted network traffic including a DNS request that requests a Resource Record name in a DNS zone file. A determination is made as to whether the DNS request is requesting resolution at a protected DNS Name Server. A hash value is calculated for the requested Resource Record name if it is determined the DNS request is requesting resolution at the protected DNS Name Server. A determination is then made as to whether the calculated hash value for the requested Resource Record name is present in the probabilistic data structure. The DNS request is forwarded to the protected server if the requested Resource Record name is determined present in the probabilistic data structure.

  • Patent number: 12028355
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to enhancing hybrid traditional neural networks with liquid neural networks for cyber security and offense protection. A computing platform may receive a request to access enterprise organization data. The computing platform may compare the current request to previous requests to determine whether a similar request was previously processed. If a similar request was not previously processed, the computing platform may flag the request as a threat and may analyze the request. The computing platform may extract data from the request and may use the extracted data to generate rules, threat detection algorithms, and training models. The computing platform may use the rules, threat detection algorithms, and training models to train a deep learning neural network to identify and handle threats to an enterprise organization.
