  • Patent number: 9171334
    Abstract: In various embodiments, systems, methods, and techniques are disclosed for generating a collection of clusters of related data from a seed. Seeds may be generated based on seed generation strategies or rules. Clusters may be generated by, for example, retrieving a seed, adding the seed to a first cluster, retrieving a clustering strategy or rules, and adding related data and/or data entities to the cluster based on the clustering strategy. Various cluster scores may be generated based on attributes of data in a given cluster. Further, cluster metascores may be generated based on various cluster scores associated with a cluster. Clusters may be ranked based on cluster metascores. Various embodiments may enable an analyst to discover various insights related to data clusters, and may be applicable to various tasks including, for example, tax fraud detection, beaconing malware detection, malware user-agent detection, and/or activity trend detection, among various others.

  • Publication number: 20150260497
    Abstract: A device for marking a generally cylindrical member includes a pair of markers positioned within a housing. The generally cylindrical member is inserted into the housing and positioned adjacent to the pair of markers. As a result, the generally cylindrical member is marked with a pair of indicators by the pair of markers when the generally cylindrical member is rotated with respect to the pair of markers. The pair of indicators enables the generally cylindrical member to be positioned at a proper depth of insertion within a fitting after the marked generally cylindrical member is removed from the marking device.

  • Patent number: 8473298
    Abstract: A digital audio signal can be processed using continuously variable time-frequency resolution by selecting a portion of an input digital audio signal, resampling the selected portion of the input digital audio signal, generating a plurality of spectral characteristics associated with the resampled portion of the input digital audio signal, generating a portion of an output digital audio signal from the plurality of spectral characteristics, and resampling the portion of the output digital audio signal. Further, resampling the selected portion of the input digital audio signal can comprise determining a sampling ratio and resampling the selected portion of the input digital audio signal in accordance with the determined sampling ratio. Additionally, the portion of the output digital audio signal can be resampled in accordance with the inverse of the determined sampling ratio. The sampling ratio can be determined based on a time-frequency resolution requirement associated with an audio processing algorithm.

  • Patent number: 8456112
    Abstract: Disclosed is a linear electric motor having a fixed primary comprising a stator divided into a number of sections, including a translating secondary having an operative length longer than any two adjacent sections of the stator in the form of a reaction plate, and a connecting means for connecting only those sections of the stator that are at least partially covered by the reaction plate. The position of the reaction plate relative to the stator is determined by monitoring current in the active representative sections. Power is supplied to each stator section individually, with power supplied in a modulated manner to end active stator sections only partially covered by the reaction plate. A measurement of the current to the active representative section is used to control output voltage to all energized stator sections and is used to determine the change in position of the reaction plate.
