Abstract: Machine-learning models (MLM) can be configured more rapidly using some examples described herein. For example, a MLM can be configured by executing an iterative process, where each iteration includes a series of operations. The series of operations can include determining a current weight value for the current iteration, determining a current gradient direction for the current iteration based on the current weight value, and determining a current learning rate for the current iteration based on the current gradient direction. The operations can also include determining a current multistage momentum value for the current iteration. A next weight value for a next iteration can then be determined based on (i) the current weight value, (ii) the current gradient direction, (iii) the current learning rate, and (iv) the current multistage momentum value. The next weight value may also be determined based on a predefined learning rate that was preset, in some examples.

Abstract: A new approach is proposed to support generating and presenting a single composite Cyber Security Threat Index (CSTI) to a user, wherein the CSTI provides the user with an indication of risk of cyber attacks globally and/or in the context of his/her current networking environment. First, various pools of operational data are collected over networks, systems, and/or products, wherein such data includes files being weaponized in the cyber attacks against computer systems and networks, the surfaces and contexts on which the cyber attacks are launched, and influential factors on these data. The data collected from various pools is then synchronized, correlated, and filtered/cleansed so that it can be used to assess risk of the cyber attacks. The CSTI is calculated based on the correlated data on the cyber attacks and interactively presented to the user, who then takes corresponding remediation actions to prevent a cyber attack from happening or spreading.

Abstract: A system that performs wall detection, range estimation, and/or corner detection to determine a position of a device relative to acoustically reflective surfaces. The device generates output audio using loudspeaker(s), generates microphone audio data using a microphone array, and generates impulse response data for each of the microphones. The device may generate the impulse response data using an acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) component or multi-channel AEC (MC-AEC). The device may detect a peak in the impulse response data and determine a distance to a reflective surface based on the peak. Based on a number of reflected surfaces detected by the device, the device may classify a position of the device within the room, such as whether the device is in a corner, along one wall, or in an open area. By knowing the position relative to the room surfaces, the device may improve sound equalization and other processing.
