Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to stop both external and internal fraud, ensure correct actions are being followed, and information is available to fraud teams for investigation. The system includes components that can address: 1) behavioral analytics (ANI reputation, IVR behavior, account activity)—this gives a risk assessment event before a call gets to an agent; 2) fraud detection—the ability to identify, in real time, if a caller is part of a fraudster cohort' and alert the agent and escalate to the fraud team; 3) identity authentication—the ability to identify through natural language if the caller is who they say they are; and 4) two factor authentication—the ability to send a text message to the caller and automatically process the response and create a case in the event of suspected fraud.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for scanning a computing system to determine a computing system profile and problems to recommend actions to initiate with the computing system. A package is transmitted to the computing system including package code to scan the computing system to determine a computing system profile comprising a computing architecture and installed applications at the computing system. The computing system profile is processed to determine a recommended action to perform with respect to the computing system to improve operations of the computing system based on the computing system profile. A display element is generated in a user interface with information on the recommended action to enable a user of the computing system to implement the recommended action. The package code executes within the computing system without communicating over the network to an external system outside of a computing environment of the computing system.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for providing a sheet product dispenser with automated product level tracking functionality are provided herein. Various product level sensors are disclosed herein including a product level sensor configured to emit a signal toward an outer circumference of a sheet product roll on a spindle extending along a longitudinal axis and to receive a reflected signal. The product level sensor is positioned a radial distance away from the spindle and aimed to emit the signal in a direction that is not parallel and not perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The product level sensor detects a parameter of the reflected signal corresponding to the distance between the product level sensor and the sheet product roll. Other example embodiments include mechanical product level sensors. Various communication protocols may be employed to limit transmission of data to conserve battery life while still maintaining desired communication functionality.

Abstract: An example neurological drive dysfunction (NDD) treatment system may include one or more of a processor of a server node connected to at least one user mobile node over a network; a memory on which are stored machine readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive from the user mobile node neurological drive dysfunction (NDD) data; provide the received NDD data to an AI module executed on the server node; send an NDD category selected by the AI module to the user mobile node; receive new NDD findings data from the user mobile node; provide the new NDD findings data to the AI module; and send a new NDD category recommendation generated by the AI module based on the new NDD findings.

Abstract: A pipe isolation device and method of using the same. The pipe isolation device includes a control bar head, a first sealing head, and a second sealing head. The first sealing head has a first seal element and a first sliding engagement. The first sliding engagement permits the first sealing head to slide relative to the control bar head along a first fixed path and traverse a right angle to gain access to an interior space of a pipe. The second sealing head has a second seal element and a second sliding engagement. The second sliding engagement permits the second sliding head to slide relative to the first sealing head along a second fixed path and traverse the right angle to gain access to an interior space of the pipe.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to methods and compositions useful for in vivo and/or in vitro enzyme profiling. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides methods of in vivo enzymatic processing of exogenous molecules followed by detection of signature molecules as representative of the presence of active enzymes associated with diseases or conditions. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides compositions and in vitro methods for localization of enzymatic activity in a tissue sample.

Abstract: A technology is described for determining an intended movement from neuromuscular signals. An example method (800) includes receiving electromyography (EMG) data corresponding to single-ended channels of an electrode array (810), where EMG signals are detected by electrodes comprising the single-ended channels of the electrode array and the EMG signals are converted to the EMG data. Determining differential channel pairs for the single-ended channels of the electrode array (820) and extracting feature data from the EMG data of the differential channel pairs (830). Thereafter a feature data set is selected from the feature data of the differential channel pairs (840) and the feature data set is input to a decode model configured to correlate the feature data set to an intended movement (850). Decode output is received from the decode model indicating the intended movement (860) and the decode output is provided to a device (870).

Abstract: Toilet tissue having a dynamic surface comprising a surface material that overlays a textured web material such that the toilet tissue exhibits one or more novel properties and method for making same are provided.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed regulating an amount of power consumed by a server from a set of power supplies in which at least one power supply of the set is inactive. The power to a server, upon detecting that at least one power supply is inactive, is restricted based on a degree to which a power threshold value for the remaining power supplies is exceeded. The applied power reduction may be based on a proportion of a measurement interval during which an alert signal is received. The longer the alert signal is received by the system, the more server power consumption is reduced.

Abstract: In some aspects, the disclosure provides compositions and methods for detecting and monitoring the activity of proteases in vivo using affinity assays. The disclosure relates, in part, to the discovery that biomarker nanoparticles targeted to the lymph nodes of a subject are useful for the diagnosis and monitoring of certain medical conditions (e.g., metastatic cancer, infection with certain pathogenic agents).

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing power supplies and related power consumption alerts for a server based on the availability of redundant power supplies. When the system detects that a redundant power supply to a server has ceased to provide power, the system configures a new power consumption threshold for the remaining power supply. The new power consumption threshold is different than an initial power consumption threshold (if configured) when the redundant power supply was providing power. A power consumption threshold for triggering power consumption alerts for a power supply may be based on a number of power supplies actively providing power.
