Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to data processing, and more particularly to a method and system for generating ground truth labels for ambiguous domain specific tasks. The system generates reference data corresponding to a regulation statement being processed, using a crowd sourcing mechanism and then processes the reference data using an Expectation Maximization (EM) model. The EM model determines consensus with respect to ambiguity of terms/phrases, validity of questions, and validity of answers, and then based on the determined consensus, provides questions and answers to disambiguate the regulation statement.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for automated runtime configuration for dataflows to automatically select or adapt a runtime environment or resources to a dataflow plan prior to execution. Metadata generated for dataflows indicates dataflow information, such as numbers and types of sources, sinks and operations, and the amount of data being consumed, processed and written. Weighted dataflow plans are created from unweighted dataflow plans based on metadata. Weights that indicate operation complexity or resource consumption are generated for data operations. A runtime environment or resources to execute a dataflow plan is/are selected based on the weighted dataflow and/or a maximum flow. Preferences may be provided to influence weighting and runtime selections.

Abstract: Data samples are transmitted from a central server to at least one local server apparatus. The central server receives a set of predictions from the at least one local server apparatus that are based on the transmitted set of data samples. The central server trains a central model based on the received set of predictions. The central model, or a portion of the central model corresponding to a task of interest, can then be sent to the at least one local server apparatus. Neither local data from local sites nor trained models from the local sites are transmitted to the central server. This ensures protection and security of data at the local sites.

The generated localized dimensional representation provides a visual indication of an abnormality located in the first location within the defined area. An action associated with the first location is executed based on the generated dimensional representation for proactive control or prevention of occurrence of undesired event in the defined area.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for computing or modeling the risk of a cyber security breach to an asset begins by gathering coverage information from network sensors, endpoint agents, and decoys related to the asset, as well as gathering importance information related to the asset, alerts and anomalies from an enterprise and vulnerability information related to the asset. From this, a threat-score is computed for the asset. Connections or coupling information is gathered between users and assets, users and data, and assets and data, which is fused to generate a 3-dimensional vector representation of coverage, importance, and threat-score of the assets, users and data. From this 3-dimensional vector, an asset risk score is computed to provide the asset risk score.
