Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for analyzing and learning behavior in an acquired stream of video frames. In one embodiment, a trajectory analyzer clusters trajectories of objects depicted in video frames and builds a trajectory model including the trajectory clusters, a prior probability of assigning a trajectory to each cluster, and an intra-cluster probability distribution indicating the probability that a trajectory mapping to each cluster is least various distances away from the cluster. Given a new trajectory, a score indicating how unusual the trajectory is may be computed based on the product of the probability of the trajectory mapping to a particular cluster and the intra-cluster probability of the trajectory being a computed distance from the cluster. The distance used to match the trajectory to the cluster and determine intra-cluster probability is computed using a parallel Needleman-Wunsch algorithm, with cells in antidiagonals of a matrix and connected sub-matrices being computed in parallel.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for building a dictionary of words from combinations of symbols generated based on input data. A neuro-linguistic behavior recognition system includes a neuro-linguistic module that generates a linguistic model that describes data input from a source (e.g., video data, SCADA data, etc.). To generate words for the linguistic model, a lexical analyzer component in the neuro-linguistic module receives a stream of symbols, each symbol generated based on an ordered stream of normalized vectors generated from input data. The lexical analyzer component determines words from combinations of the symbols based on a hierarchical learning model having one or more levels. Each level indicates a length of the words to be identified at that level. Statistics are evaluated for the words identified at each level. The lexical analyzer component identifies one or more of the words having statistical significance.

The terminal further comprises a processor configured to obtain N pictures taken by the at least two cameras, and process the N pictures by complementing the occluded areas based on pictures taken by the at least two cameras to obtain a picture in which the occluded area is completely or partially recovered.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating a syntax for a neuro-linguistic model of input data obtained from one or more sources. A stream of words of a dictionary built from a sequence of symbols are received. The symbols are generated from an ordered stream of normalized vectors generated from input data. Statistics for combinations of words co-occurring in the stream are evaluated. The statistics includes a frequency upon which the combinations of words co-occur. A model of combinations of words based on the evaluated statistics is updated. The model identifies statistically relevant words. A connected graph is generated. Each node in the connected graph represents one of the words in the stream. Edges connecting the nodes represent a probabilistic relationship between words in the stream. Phrases are identified based on the connected graph.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating a sequence of symbols based on input data for a neuro-linguistic model. The model may be used by a behavior recognition system to analyze the input data. A mapper component of a neuro-linguistic module in the behavior recognition system receives one or more normalized vectors generated from the input data. The mapper component generates one or more clusters based on a statistical distribution of the normalized vectors. The mapper component evaluates statistics and identifies statistically relevant clusters. The mapper component assigns a distinct symbol to each of the identified clusters.

The amino acid sequences of the glutamate dehydrogenase mutants are as shown in SEQ ID NO. 1˜9, 11, 13, 15, 17˜19 and 22.

Abstract: Simulation of process control environments, including dynamic properties, with a modified first-order Taylor series expansion. By using more linear calculations, a physical dynamic property is approximated in less time and with fewer computing resources. By adjusting the approximation to introduce curvature, a physical dynamic property is represented over a wider range than with basic linear series expansions. A comparison to a basic linear first-order series expansion identifies conditions when a rigorous update of a dynamic property is needed.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to adaptive and user-defined security against side-channel attacks in a virtual network. Traffic in the virtual network can be monitored at the hypervisor level and network security levels, such as padding and inclusion of dummy packets in the traffic stream, may be adaptively switched based on the monitored traffic information. In addition, user-defined security policies can be input to a management console. Thus, the security levels can be adaptive to real-time traffic bandwidth usage in the network and also flexibly specified by the user/administrator, which may be more efficient.
