Publication number: 20250232840Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for collapsing sequencing reads and identifying similar sequencing reads. In one example, a method includes generating a plurality of first identifier subsequences from a first identifier sequence of each nucleotide sequencing read and generating a first signature for the nucleotide sequencing read by applying hashing to the plurality of first identifier subsequences. The method may include assigning the nucleotide sequencing read to a first particular bin of a first data structure based on the first signature and determining a nucleotide sequence for each first particular bin of the first data structure with one or more nucleotide sequencing reads assigned.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2025Publication date: July 17, 2025Inventors: Chen Zhao, Kevin Eric Wu, Sven Bilke

Patent number: 12254090Abstract: A method, a computer program product, and a system for mitigating unauthorized encryptions of filesystem objects stored on a computing system. The method includes allocating a backup memory area for storing pre-encrypted filesystem objects, setting data bits in an encryption register that allow for monitoring a filesystem object marked for ransomware protection. The method also includes calculating an encryption rate of an encryption occurring on the filesystem object and determining that the encryption rate of the filesystem object exceeds an encryption-rate threshold. The encryption-rate threshold can be set by an administrator when marking the filesystem object for ransomware protection. The method further includes generating an alert to an administrator that the encryption rate of the filesystem object exceeds the encryption rate threshold and storing a backup of the filesystem object for a predetermined amount of time in the backup memory area.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2021Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Niteesh Kumar Dubey, Ramanjaneya Sarma Burugula, Joefon Jann, Ching-Farn Eric Wu
