Abstract: A system tokenizes raw values and corresponding standardized values into raw token sequences and corresponding standardized token sequences. A machine-learning model learns standardization from token insertions and token substitutions that modify the raw token sequences to match the corresponding standardized token sequences. The system tokenizes an input value into an input token sequence. The machine-learning model determines a probability of inserting an insertion token after an insertion markable token in the input token sequence. If the probability of inserting the insertion token satisfies a threshold, the system inserts the insertion token after the insertion markable token in the input token sequence. The machine-learning model determines a probability of substituting a substitution token for a substitutable token in the input token sequence.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for modifying an SD-WAN (software-defined wide-area network). The method collects, from a set of managed forwarding elements (MFEs), multiple metrics associated with multiple data message flows sent between the set of MFEs. The method analyzes the collected multiple metrics to group the data message flows according to multiple types and to identify a ranking of the multiple groups of data message flows according to traffic throughput. The method uses the ranking to identify a set of one or more groups of data message flows. The method modifies the SD-WAN to improve forwarding through the SD-WAN for the identified set of one or more groups of data message flows.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for using a heat map to modify an SD-WAN (software-defined wide-area network) deployed for a set of geographic locations. From a set of managed forwarding elements (MFEs) that forward multiple data message flows through the SD-WAN to a set of destination clusters, the method collects multiple metrics associated with the multiple data message flows. Based on the collected multiple metrics, the method generates a heat map that accounts for (1) the multiple data message flows, (2) locations of the set of MFEs, and (3) locations of the one or more destination clusters. The method uses the generated heat map to identify at least one modification to make to the SD-WAN to improve forwarding of the multiple data message flows.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for extended reality environment interaction. An extended reality environment including an object is generated for display, and a first sensor is used to detect that a gaze has shifted from a first portion of the extended reality environment to a second portion of the extended reality environment, where the object is excluded from the first portion of the extended reality environment and included in the second portion of the extended reality environment. An indicator of the shift in the gaze is generated for display within the extended reality environment in response to detecting the gaze shift, and a voice command is detected by a second sensor while the indicator is in a vicinity of the object. In response to detecting the voice command, an action corresponding to the voice command may be executed.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for dynamically deploying a managed forwarding element (MFE) in a software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) for a particular geographic region across which multiple SaaS applications is distributed. The method determines, based on flow patterns for multiple flows destined for the multiple SaaS applications distributed across the particular geographic region, that an additional MFE is needed for the particular geographic region. The method configures the additional MFE to deploy at a particular location in the particular geographic region for forwarding the multiple flows to the multiple SaaS applications. The method provides, to a particular set of MFEs that connect a set of branch sites to the SD-WAN, a set of forwarding rules to direct the particular set of MFEs to use the additional MFE for forwarding subsequent data messages belonging to the multiple flows to the multiple SaaS applications.

Abstract: A cloud platform trains a machine-learned entity matching model that generates predictions on whether a pair of electronic records refer to a same entity. In one embodiment, the entity matching model is configured as a transformer architecture. In one instance, the entity matching model is trained using a combination of a first loss and a second loss. The first loss indicates a difference between an entity matching prediction for a training instance and a respective match label for the training instance. The second loss indicates a difference between a set of named-entity recognition (NER) predictions for the training instance and the set of NER labels for the tokens of the training instance.

Abstract: A compliance discovery and integration process is implemented in association with a cloud-based security and compliance platform and associated CI/CD framework. The process assumes an existing DevOps-based deployment of a product, such as an enterprise application that executes in a runtime production environment. The technique of this disclosure addresses the problem of misalignment between a compliance policy and the product's post-deployment regulation posture by providing tools and methods that enable pro-active augmentation of governance and compliance policy during the pre-deployment phase and with respect to a next deployment of the product (e.g., a next or updated version). Thus, when the product is later deployed in its next deployment, its regulation posture (post-deployment) is already consistent with the compliance policy.
