Abstract: The invention refers to an apparatus (110) for predicting a technical application property for a polymer based on a digital representation of the polymer. A digital representation providing unit (111) provides a digital representation of the polymer indicative of polymer descriptors. The polymer descriptors are indicative of parameters quantifying physicochemical characteristics of subgroups of the polymer. A prediction model providing unit (112) provides a prediction model adapted to predict a technical application property of the polymer based on the digital representation, wherein the prediction model is a data-driven model parametrized such that it predicts based on the polymer descriptors indicated by the digital representation the technical application property associated with the polymer. A property determination unit (113) determines the technical application property based on the provided digital representation of the polymer and the prediction model.

Abstract: A method for enacting a measurement circuit of a surface code on a plaquette of qubits of a qubit lattice comprises: (a) distributing among a sequence of time steps a set of one-qubit projective measurements on each of three auxiliary qubits of the plaquette; (b) distributing among the sequence of time steps a set of two-qubit projective measurements on each of four data qubits of the plaquette together with one of the three auxiliary qubits; (c) distributing among the sequence of time steps a set of two-qubit projective measurements on two or more auxiliary-qubit pairs selected from the three auxiliary qubits of the plaquette; and (d) advancing through each of the time steps of the sequence, executing the one- and two-qubit projective measurements distributed therein. In this method the measurement circuit corresponds to a stabilizer of the surface code, and the measurements generate measurement of a stabilizer operator.

Abstract: Systems and methods for using risk profiles for fleet management of a fleet of vehicles are disclosed. Fleet management may include determining the performance levels of particular vehicle operators. The risk profiles characterize values representing likelihoods of occurrences of vehicle events. The values are based on vehicle event information for previously detected vehicle events. Exemplary implementations may: receive, from a particular vehicle, particular vehicle event information for particular vehicle events that have been detected by the particular vehicle; determine one or more metrics that quantify a performance level of the particular vehicle operator, based on the risk profiles; compare the one or more metrics for the particular vehicle operator with aggregated metrics that quantify performance levels of a set of vehicle operators; and store, transfer, and/or present results of the comparison.

Abstract: A cyber threat defense system can incorporate data from a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application hosted by a third-party operator platform to identify cyber threats related to that SaaS application. The cyber threat defense module can have a SaaS module to collect third-party event data from the third-party operator platform. The cyber threat defense system can have a comparison module to compare third-party event data for a network entity to at least one machine-learning model of a network entity using a normal behavior benchmark to spot behavior deviating from normal benign behavior. The comparison module can identify whether the network entity is in a breach state. The cyber threat defense system can have a cyber threat module to identify whether the breach state and a chain of relevant behavioral parameters correspond to a cyber threat. An autonomous response module can execute an autonomous response in response to the cyber threat.

The chair, couch or bed leg fits an upward-facing leg holder for one furniture leg. The leg holder is affixed to or part of an upper base having two longitudinal grooves, wherein two screws, one extending into each of the grooves, hold the upper base to a lower base. The two screws are loose enough with respect to the upper side of the upper base to allow the upper base (carrying the leg-holder and the attached furniture leg) to slide relative to the lower base. An elastic member connects the upper base to the lower base.
