  • Publication number: 20260161742
    Abstract: Implementations of the disclosure pertain to a computerized method including operations of extracting a pattern of punctuation marks or special characters from raw machine data associated with a specific point in time, generating a set of N-grams from the extracted pattern of punctuation marks or special characters, and converting the set of N-grams to a first N-gram vector. Additional operations include computing a similarity measure between the first N-gram vector and training data, wherein the training data includes a plurality of N-gram vectors generated from data representations of events having known source types, determining a predicted source type of the event based on the computed similarity measure, selecting a configuration file based on the predicted source type, and executing a query in accordance with the source type-specific extraction rules resulting in extraction of content from one or more data fields comprising the event.

  • Publication number: 20260108718
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for securing a tube to a tube insertion site. An apparatus for a medical tube securement device includes a base member and a clamp member. The base member includes a first tab portion, a second tab portion, and an opening for receiving a tube. The opening is located substantially between the first tab portion and the second tab portion. A clamp member secures the tube within the opening to prevent the tube from moving while the base member is attached to a person and the tube is located at a tube insertion site on the person.

  • Patent number: 12488062
    Abstract: Implementations of the disclosure pertain to detecting mislabeling of a source type assigned to machine data through utilization of machine learning techniques. Operations of a computerized method for detecting the mislabeling include receiving machine data that has been assigned an initial source type upon receipt by a data intake and query system and parsing the data block into a plurality of events based on a source type definition of the initial source type. Further operations include generating a data representation of a first event being a portion of the machine data and is associated with a point in time, determining a predicted source type of the first event by at least analyzing the data representation through machine learning techniques, and performing a comparison between the predicted source type and the initial source type thereby determining whether the source type of the event was initially mislabeled.

  • Patent number: 12358256
    Abstract: A pipe liner for lining the inside of a pipe, for example a water or sewerage pipe requiring repair. The pipe liner is mainly formed of a fabric sleeve, or a plurality of fabric sleeves, and comprises a ribbon or strip of fibrous material along a longitudinal seam which reinforces the longitudinal seam. The pipe liners may be suitable for use in repairing damaged or degraded pipes and may provide an improvement in the tensile and/or flexural strength of the longitudinal seam compared to a similar pipe liner with a simple butt-stitched longitudinal seam, whilst not suffering from the disadvantages of reinforced welded seam which can be difficult to turn inside out during installation. The present invention also provides a method of manufacturing such a pipe liner, a pipe lining formed from such a pipe liner and a pipe comprising such a pipe lining.

  • Patent number: 11820550
    Abstract: A rigid container that may be used to store items. The container includes a first bowl and a second bowl. The first and second bowls both include center portions and at least one sidewall. The sidewalls are disposed about the peripheries of their respective center portions and oriented perpendicular to it. The sidewall(s) of the first bowl define an exterior profile and the sidewall(s) of the second bowl define an interior profile. The exterior profile and the interior profile are identical in shape but the interior profile is slightly larger so that the second bowl can be received over the first bowl.

  • Patent number: 11629354
    Abstract: A grain crop may have an increased amount of nicotianamine (NA). The increased NA may correlate with an increased bioavailability of iron in the grain and any product, such as ground flour, resulting from processing of the grain. The increase of NA may be achieved through the expression of the OsNAS2 gene. Further, a grain flour produced from a transformed grain plant may have an increased amount of NA, and thus an increased amount of bio-available iron, as compared to a grain flour produced from a non-transformed grain plant of the same species. The grain flour produced from the transformed grain plant (“biofortified flour”) may be used in food production for feed to animals or humans. Such a feed including the biofortified flour may improve the gut health and/or the feed efficiency of the eater as compared to the gut health for an eater of non-biofortified flour.
