  • Publication number: 20240086954
    Abstract: A fuel price determination system may receive transaction data identifying purchases, made with transaction cards and mobile transaction card applications of client devices, of fuel at fuel stations. The fuel price determination system may receive location data identifying locations associated with users of the client devices and the transaction cards, and user history data associated with prior purchases of fuel at fuel stations by the users. The fuel price determination system may process the transaction data, location data, and user history data, with a machine learning model, to determine fuel prices at the fuel stations. The fuel price determination system may determine a ranked list of particular fuel stations in a geographical area based on the fuel prices and populate, based on the location data and the ranked list, a map to identify the particular fuel stations and the fuel prices at the particular fuel stations.

  • Publication number: 20240068348
    Abstract: A system can display confidence values in a wellbore inversion model using a visual indicator. The system can receive downhole data relating to the wellbore from a downhole tool deployed in a wellbore of a geological formation during a wellbore operation. The system can additionally generate an inversion model of the geological formation by performing inversion processing on the downhole data. Furthermore, the system can determine confidence values for the downhole data in the inversion model. Additionally, the system can determine a depth of detection limit for the downhole data based on the confidence values. The system can output the inversion model, the depth of detection limit, and a visual indicator based on the confidence values for display at a display device for use in adjusting the wellbore operation.

  • Patent number: 11868482
    Abstract: Source code is managed through a source code management system and one or more static application security testing scanners check the source-code for vulnerabilities. The scanners generate vulnerability reports that are processed by a vulnerability tracker. The vulnerability tracker computes the scopes of identified vulnerabilities from the source-code and generates scope and offset fingerprints (e.g., hashes that uniquely identify vulnerabilities based on their surrounding scope). The fingerprints used for deduplication and vulnerability tracking. The vulnerability tracker may generate a refined vulnerability report that includes a set of deduplicated vulnerabilities with the corresponding fingerprints. The refined vulnerability report and related data may be stored in a vulnerability database for use in vulnerability management.

  • Publication number: 20230342479
    Abstract: A system or a method for analyzing a software project for vulnerabilities. The system extracts scopes of source code, each of which is a source code block that contains a definition of an entity. The system also receives a vulnerability report relating to the source code. The vulnerability report identifies a vulnerability at a line of the source code. The system identifies a subset of the scopes of source code that contains the line of source code where the vulnerability is identified. The system identifies, based on smatch values, a minimum scope among the subset of the scopes that contains the line of source code where the vulnerability is identified, and generates a scoped vulnerability report recording the minimum scope and the vulnerability.
