Abstract: The technology involves a personalized recommender system that can be used with an e-commerce platform. It employs a contrastive learning based cross-domain recommendation approach. The approach balances the learning of user behaviors within each domain, as well as user behaviors across multiple domains. To achieve robust user representations and to improve knowledge transfer between the source and target domains, multi-task intra-domain contrastive regularizations may be employed along with multiple branches of sequential attentive encoders in a model for cross-domain sequential recommendation. Different data augmentation approaches can be used to generate augmented data for contrastive learning. For instance, different data augmentation methods may be combined with recommendation optimization in a multi-task learning paradigm. An optimized sequence representation may be fine-tuned in a next-value prediction task for recommendation in a target domain.

Abstract: An autonomous compute storage device system includes a computing device and a storage device that is coupled to the computing device. The storage device receives a read instruction from a host processing system in the computing device that identifies data stored in a storage subsystem included in the storage device and, in response, performs a read operation to copy the data from the storage subsystem to a memory subsystem accessible to the storage device and provide the data to the host processing system. If the storage device determines that an autonomous compute signature matches the data that was copied to the memory subsystem during the performance of the read operation, it executes an autonomous compute application to perform compute operations that are associated with the data that was copied to the memory subsystem during the performance of the read operation and generate compute operation result(s).

The hardware device retrieves the query from the query address in response to the command, provides the query to the query processing engine, and stores a response to the query from the query processing engine to the response address.

Abstract: An amount of data change associated with a version of a content file with respect to one or more previous versions of the content file is determined. The amount of change associated with the version of the content file is determined using a tree data structure associated with the content file that is stored on a storage cluster. One or more statistics associated with backup snapshot are provided to a server. The server is configured to determine that the amount of data change associated with the version of the content file is anomalous based in part on the one or more statistics associated with the backup snapshot. A notification that data associated with the backup snapshot is potentially infected by malicious software is received from the server. The version of the content file is indicated as being potentially infected by malicious software.

The method includes receiving first and second rollout requests for a cluster relating to operational actions for computing devices associated with the cluster. A rollout status for the cluster is determined and the rollout requests are simultaneously performed on the cluster where the operational actions are simultaneously performed on the computing devices associated with the cluster. In addition, a rollout status is updated based on simultaneously performing the rollout requests for the cluster.

Abstract: A trusted orchestrator function subsystem inventory and verification system includes an OS, a BIOS, a management device, and a trusted orchestrator device. In response to presentation of a function subsystem to the OS during runtime, the OS generates a function subsystem detection alert that identifies the function subsystem. In response to the function subsystem detection alert, the BIOS generates and provides a BIOS inventory update that identifies the function subsystem. The management device receives the BIOS inventory update and, in response, forwards the BIOS inventory update. The trusted orchestrator device receives the BIOS inventory update and, in response, determine whether the function subsystem identified in the BIOS inventory update is included in a trusted function subsystem inventory.

Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for determining whether requests for content are fraudulent are provided. A request for content may be received from a first device. A first user profile associated with the first device may be identified. The first user profile may comprise activity information associated with the first device, demographic information associated with the first device and/or interest information associated with the first device. A user profile database may be analyzed to identify a set of user profiles similar to the first user profile. A relevance score associated with the request for content may be generated based upon the resource, the set of user profiles and/or the first user profile. The relevance score may be compared with a threshold relevance to determine whether the request for content is fraudulent.

Abstract: A computer network device (such as an access point, a switch or a router) that has multiple user interfaces is described. During operation, the computer network device may execute program instructions for the user interfaces and a shared messaging module, where a given user interface includes an agent corresponding to an application. When a message associated with the application is received via a user interface in the user interfaces, the corresponding agent in the user interface may extract a command or operation from the message. Then, the shared messaging module may translate the command or operation into a common format of the application. Moreover, the shared messaging module may provide (or route) the translated command or operation addressed to the application via a single communication path associated with the application and the agents for the application in the user interfaces.
