Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for deep packet inspection and intrusion detection. The system uses a pattern matching module receiving as an input a data stream in a neural network. Neurons are activated such that when active, the neuron fires to all connecting output neurons to form a neuron spike, each neuron spike from the assigned neuron to a connecting output neuron having a delay. A delay is associated with each input character in the pattern, such that a position of each input character relative to an end of the pattern is stored in an alphabet-pattern-delay matrix (APDFM). An activation matrix (AM) is used to match each input character with a stored pattern to generate a similarity match and determine if the string of characters is the stored pattern.

Abstract: This invention relates to a display control apparatus and method capable of appropriately, easily selecting a display item the user wants on a display of a plurality of display items. In one embodiment of the invention, a plurality of display items are arranged on a display screen to cause the display screen having a touch panel to display the plurality of display items as selectable candidates. A first display item is selected among the plurality of display items displayed on the display screen. In a case where the first display item is selected and a touch area in the touch panel is designated by a user, a second display item which is closer to the first display item than the touch area in the display screen is selected.

Abstract: During an interaction with a web page, user interface events are recorded and augmented with page layout data from the document object model. An event stream is formed with the page layout data and communicated to an event server. The event server processes the event stream to determine a location at which the events were generated and determines attention data for each event stream that indicates where a user's attention was directed during an interaction. The attention data for a plurality of event streams is aggregated to determine common or popular areas of interest of the web page.

Abstract: Online systems generate predictors for predicting actions of users of the online system. The online system receives requests to generate predictor models for predicting whether a user is likely to take an action of a particular action type. The request specifies the type of action and criteria for identifying a successful instance of the action type and a failure instance of the action type. The online system collects data including successful and failure instances of the action type. The online system generates one or more predictors of different types using the generated data. The online system evaluates and compares the performance of the different predictors generated and selects a predictor based on the performance. The online system returns a handle to access the generated predictor to the requester of the predictor.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for monitoring and replaying user interactions with one or more interactive electronic documents. The methods generally include identifying an event comprising an interaction between a user and an interactive electronic document, determining to record the event, identifying for the event a user action, a target element, and a set of element features, and recording data for recreating the event. Generally, the methods and systems monitor a training user's interactions with a document and generate an automated replay agent capable of replaying or recreating those interactions on the document or on similar documents. In some embodiments, the replay agent is able to place a document in a desired state and extract information from the document in the desired state. In some embodiments, the replay agent is trained to recognize elements, or types of elements, in the document.

Abstract: A method and system for managing overlapping windows on a computer screen of a computer system. A hook filter intercepts an event that has occurred. An association of the hook filter with the event was established prior to the occurrence of the event. The event is characterized by an overlapping condition in which a floating window partially or totally overlaps an active window on the computer screen. A software application is associated with the active window. Response to intercepting the event, the hook filter detects the overlapping condition. Response to detecting the overlapping condition, the hook filter eliminates the overlapping condition to make the active window totally visible.
