Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to physiological sensor-based monitoring and control systems. A computing device may determine a physiological measurement. Then, the computing device may compare the physiological measurement with one or more baseline values to determine whether the physiological measurement is anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values. When the physiological measurement is determined to be anomalous with respect to the one or more baseline values, the computing device may execute access control on a device to prevent access by a user to one or more systems, applications, resources, or the like.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to improving user responses to cyber security threats. A computing platform may generate a test communication to simulate a potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, via the communication interface, the test communication to a user device associated with a target user. Then, the computing platform may receive, via the communication interface and from the user device, a response to the test communication. Subsequently, the computing platform may determine, based on the response, a threat awareness level for the target user, where the threat awareness level is indicative of a susceptibility of the target user to the potential cyber threat activity. Then, the computing platform may send, to the target user and based on the threat awareness level, an alert notification to counter the cyber threat activity.

Abstract: An interactive system and method for virtual ride-sharing with electric vehicle allows a vehicle operator to operate the electric vehicle, like an electric scooter, while simultaneously interacting with network users to share a riding experience through a social media site and the Internet directly from the electric vehicle. An in-vehicle camera captures vehicle data and posts vehicle data to a social media site. The vehicle operator performs social networking functions like: uploading content, downloading content, posting riding images, livestreaming content, and interacting with others on social media while operating electric vehicle. The electric vehicle comprises a step-through frame and is operable as a plug-in electric vehicle having electricity stored on board in a rechargeable battery to drive an electric motor. The vehicle has a slim aesthetic design, an aerodynamic manual brake fin, a mobile communication device holder, and an accelerator handle and a brake handle differentiated by color.

Abstract: Provided is a process for manufacturing a Fluid Catalytic Cracking catalyst additive composition with a novel binder. The steps involve mixing an alumina source with water to make a slurry; adding to the alumina slurry an amount of P2O5 source; the slurry is then stirred and reacted under controlled temperature and time conditions to form an aluminum phosphate binder; adding to the aluminum phosphate binder a zeolite, an amount of silica binder and an amount of clay; and spray-drying the slurry to form catalyst additive particles. The catalyst additive composition comprises a about 35 wt % to about 65 wt % zeolite; about 0 wt % to about 10 wt % silica; about 15 wt % to about 50 wt % clay and an aluminum phosphate binder comprising about 2.5 wt % to 5 wt % amorphous or pseudo-boehmite alumina and about 7 wt % to 15 wt % phosphoric acid.

Abstract: Arrangements for dynamical travel threat assessment and control are provided. In some examples, a system may receive a request to schedule travel. The request may include one or more aspects. Based on the aspects, threat data may be requested. The threat data may be requested from a plurality of data sources including internal data sources and external data sources. Machine learning may be used to evaluate the threat data to generate or identify one or more potential threats associated with the requested travel. Based on the generated one or more potential threats, one or more actions may be identified. The actions may include completion criteria used to determine whether an action has been completed. The actions may be transmitted to one or more devices for execution. After executing the actions, action response data may be received and compared to the completion criteria to determine whether the requested travel should be authorized or denied.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a safety monitor framework for a safety-critical graphics processing unit (GPU) compute application are disclosed. A system includes a safety-critical GPU compute application, a safety monitor, and a GPU. The safety monitor receives a compute grid, test vectors, and a compute kernel from the safety-critical GPU compute application. The safety monitor generates a modified compute grid by adding extra tiles to the original compute grid, with the extra tiles generated based on the test vectors. The safety monitor provides the modified compute grid and compute kernel to the GPU for processing. The safety monitor determines the likelihood of erroneous processing of the original compute grid by comparing the actual results for the extra tiles with known good results. The safety monitor complements the overall fault coverage of the GPU hardware and covers faults only observable at the application programming interface (API) level.
