Abstract: An identity management platform may transmit, to an Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with a request to access resources protected by the identity management platform, data corresponding to a login page. The data may include login fields that are detectable when the login page is rendered and at least one hidden field that is undetectable when the login page is rendered. The identity management platform may receive, from the IP address, a login response with a first set of inputs corresponding to the detectable login fields and a second set of inputs corresponding to the at least one hidden field that is undetectable when the login page is rendered. The identity management platform may determine that the IP address corresponds to an unauthorized entity based on the login response including the second set of inputs for the at least one hidden field in the login page.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to a method and system for generative Al based unified virtual assistant. Conventional virtual assistant for enterprise systems needs to be configured for a specific industry or stakeholder and does not provide support for all stakeholders in the enterprise. Also, conventional rule-based virtual assistant or machine learning based virtual assistant need a large database for proper functioning. The disclosed method and system provide a unified virtual assistant for all processes in the enterprise. The unified virtual assistant provides support for all stakeholders in the enterprise and can answer all kinds of queries related to any process of the enterprise according to a role of a user logged into the system. The unified virtual assistant interprets user's query and generates effective prompts depending on the user's query which can be specific to customer, employee, executive or support desk users of the enterprise.

Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow a UE including an application processor and a modem to disable measurements of reference signals from 5G base stations which are inapplicable to EN-DC. The UE may receive a reference signal from a base station. The UE may identify a frequency range. The UE may provide, using the application processor, an indication to the modem. The UE may determine whether to measure the reference signal using the modem based on the indication provided to the modem from the application processor and whether the reference signal is within the identified frequency range and further based on whether the base station is standalone or non-standalone. The UE may refrain from measuring the reference signal in response to the determination. As a result, inter-RAT handovers from LTE base stations to 5G base stations are prevented, UE power consumption is thereby saved, and support for EN-DC is maintained.

Abstract: Techniques and solutions are provided for database testing. In particular, aspects of the present disclosure facilitate “automatic exploration” of testing of database features, such as database commands. In particular, test definitions can be created for particular database features, where a test definition can have variants. Different test definitions can be combined into a composite test, which can include different variants for different tests. An executable test can be created that allows a database to execute a composite test. The present disclose also provides techniques and solutions for analyzing test results, particularly when voluminous test results are returned. In one example, test results for multiple iterations of a test can be compared. A change in test results, for example, can cause a test result to be flagged for further review. The composite tests, or result analysis techniques, can help provide better testing of database software to help identify software errors/bugs.

In response to detecting the regulated user account joining a virtual meeting, the video communication platform instantiates a virtual meeting participant instance by executing a bot program as a virtual meeting participant to join the virtual meeting. The video communication platform captures, via the virtual meeting participant instance, communication data associated with the regulated user account. The video communication platform generates an archival file corresponding to the regulated user account by applying a compliance policy associated with the regulated user account to the communication data.

The system includes neural network(s) that generate a predictive function for vehicles in each of a number of classes (e.g., electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, internal combustion vehicles, vehicle models, model years, etc.). To capture both the generalizable patterns that govern energy consumption across all vehicle classes and the features and relationships that are specific to each class, the neural network(s) include a multi-task learning model that includes shared layers for all of the classes of vehicles and a set of vehicle-specific layers for each class. In some of those embodiments, for example to predict to energy consumption of an additional class with limited data, the neural networks further include an inductive transfer learning model that includes the shared layers transferred from the multi-task learning model and vehicle-specific layers for the additional class.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for monitoring a storage system and correcting demand imbalances among nodes in a cluster are disclosed. A performance manager for the storage system may detect performance imbalances that occur over a period of time. When operating below an optimal performance capacity, the manager may cause a volume to be moved from a node with a high load to a node with a lower load to achieve a preventive result. When operating at or near optimal performance capacity, the manager may cause a QOS limit to be imposed to prevent the workload from exceeding the performance capacity, to achieve a proactive result. When operating abnormally, the manager may cause a QOS limit to be imposed to throttle the workload to bring the node back within the optimal performance capacity of the node, to achieve a reactive result. These actions may be performed independently, or in cooperation.

Abstract: In various examples, contrast values corresponding to pixels of one or more images generated using one or more sensors of a vehicle may be computed to detect and identify objects that trigger glare mitigating operations. Pixel luminance values are determined and used to compute a contrast value based on comparing the pixel luminance values to a reference luminance value that is based on a set of the pixels and the corresponding luminance values. A contrast threshold may be applied to the computed contrast values to identify glare in the image data to trigger glare mitigating operations so that the vehicle may modify the configuration of one or more illumination sources so as to reduce glare experienced by occupants and/or sensors of the vehicle.
