Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for forwarding data messages at multiple edge nodes of a logical network that process data messages between a logical network and an external network. At a particular one of the edge nodes, the method receives a data message sent from a source machine in the logical network. The method performs network address translation to translate a source network address of the data message corresponding to the source machine into an anycast network address that is shared among the edge nodes. The method sends the data message with the anycast network address as a source network address to the external network. Each edge node receives data messages from source machines in the logical network and translates the source addresses of the data messages into the same anycast public network address prior to sending the data messages to the external network.

Abstract: A disparity image fusion method for multiband stereo cameras belongs to the field of image processing and computer vision. The method obtains pixel disparity confidence information by using the intermediate output of binocular disparity estimation. The confidence information can be used to judge the disparity credibility of the position and assist disparity fusion. The confidence acquisition process makes full use of the intermediate output of calculation, and can be conveniently embedded into the traditional disparity estimation process, with high calculation efficiency and simple and easy operation. In the disparity image fusion method for multiband stereo cameras proposed by the method, the disparity diagrams participating in the fusion are obtained according to the binocular images of the corresponding bands, which makes full use of the information of each band and simultaneously avoiding introducing uncertainty and errors.

Abstract: This application discusses identifying data processing timeouts in live risk analysis systems. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor, may provide a production computing environment that includes a risk analysis system having one or more risk models, which may be machine-learning based. These risk models may be utilized in order to determine whether incoming data processing requests are fraudulent. To test these risk models using production data traffic, an audit computing environment made of a set of machines that do not service production computing environment requests, but that utilize databases and data connections as are used by the production systems. The audit computing environment may thus mirror the risk models and functionality of the production computing environment without the drawbacks of a typical fully separate testing environment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are directed to machine learning techniques that use a separate embedding layer. This can allow for continuous monitoring of a processing system based on events that are continuously generated. Various events may have corresponding feature data associated with at least one action relating to a processing system. Embedding vectors that correspond to the features are retrieved from an embedding layer that is hosted on a separate physical device or a separate computer system from a computer that hosts the machine learning system. The embedding vectors are processed though the machine learning model, which may then make a determination (e.g. whether or not a particular user action should be allowed). Generic embedding vectors additionally enable the use of a single remote embedding layer for multiple different machine learning models, such as event driven data models.
