Abstract: A threat actor identification system that obtains domain data for a set of domains, generates domain clusters, determines whether the domain clusters are associated with threat actors, and presents domain data for the clusters that are associated with threat actors to brand owners that are associated with the threat actors. The clusters may be generated based on similarities in web page content, domain registration information, and/or domain infrastructure information. For each cluster, a clustering engine determines whether the cluster is associated with a threat actor, and for clusters that are associated with threat actors, corresponding domain information is stored for presentation to brand owners to whom the threat actor poses a threat.

Abstract: A process for optimal query scheduling includes receiving in an information retrieval data processing system, a request to accelerate query execution of a specified query to a time prior to a scheduled time. A specific field corresponding to data in a database is then identified in the query and a freshness of data requirement for the specific field retrieved along with a frequency of change the data corresponding to the specific field. Then, if execution of the specific query at the time prior to the scheduled time instead of the scheduled time is determined not to violate the freshness of data requirement based upon the frequency of change of the data corresponding of the specific field, the specific query is scheduled for execution at the time prior to the scheduled time. But otherwise, the scheduled time may be maintained for executing the specific query.

Abstract: Ferroelectric capacitor is formed by conformably depositing a non-conductive dielectric over the etched first and second electrodes, and forming a metal cap or helmet over a selective part of the non-conductive dielectric, wherein the metal cap conforms to portions of sidewalls of the non-conductive dielectric. The metal cap is formed by applying physical vapor deposition at a grazing angle to selectively deposit a metal mask over the selective part of the non-conductive dielectric. The metal cap can also be formed by applying ion implantation with tuned etch rate. The method further includes isotopically etching the metal cap and the non-conductive dielectric such that non-conductive dielectric remains on sidewalls of the first and second electrodes but not on the third and fourth electrodes.

Abstract: The technology relates to methods for detecting and classifying emotions in textual communication, and using this information to suggest graphical indicia such as emoji, stickers or GIFs to a user. Two main types of models are fully supervised models and few-shot models. In addition to fully supervised and few-shot models, other types of models focusing on the back-end (server) side or client (on-device) side may also be employed. Server-side models are larger-scale models that can enable higher degrees of accuracy, such as for use cases where models can be hosted on cloud servers where computational and storage resources are relatively abundant. On-device models are smaller-scale models, which enable use on resource-constrained devices such as mobile phones, smart watches or other wearables (e.g., head mounted displays), in-home devices, embedded devices, etc.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to determining router and computing device performance. An example non-transitory machine-readable medium can include instructions executable by a processor to capture, from an agent device on a computing device of a network, computing device data and network connectivity data associated with the computing device and filter data associated with connectivity to non-WiFi networks from the captured computing device data and network connectivity data. The instructions can be executable to filter out-of-network data from the captured computing device data and network connectivity data, correlate the filtered data with wireless router performance data, and determine router and computing device performances based on the correlation.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for activating a personalized user profile on a device based on the detection of an outlying user input. A media guidance application detects a user input that is inconsistent with an active user profile. In response, the media guidance application identifies a candidate user that both shares a location with the device and has a user profile consistent with the user input. The media guidance application activates the user profile of the candidate user as a temporary active user profile on the device.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques for graph generation for online path planning offer multiple advantages, such as providing for high-quality motion during online operation of the robot, while reducing the computational burden of graph generation. Achieving these competing goals involves reducing the dimensionality of the graph generation problem by performing unconstrained sampling that defines partial robot poses that set values for fewer than all configuration parameters of the robot. The remaining configuration parameters for each sample are then determined in dependence on a distance function that relates the partial pose to one or more reference robot poses that are associated with one or more tasks to be performed by the robot and are provided as inputs to the graph generation. Reference robot poses may be determined automatically based on computer analysis of the robot application or may be user-input values.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques embody advantageous approaches to online task and motion planning for robots, based on the decomposition of robot tasks into subtasks having attached attributes that, among other things, indicate whether dynamic trajectory modification is permitted during subtask execution. The decomposition and attribute tagging allows for hybrid motion control during task execution, for example, with some subtasks allowing for reactive motion planning for collision avoidance, and other subtasks disallowing reactive motion. Collision avoidance for non-reactive subtasks involves, for example, coordinating volume reservations within an involved robot work cell, to prevent other robots from interfering with a robot engaged in a subtask designated as non-reactive. Determination of which subtasks are non-reactive relies on information included in an input task specification and may be based on user analysis or automated analysis of the involved robot application.
