  • Patent number: 12228578
    Abstract: Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) is a vector borne disease that is caused by Rickettsia rickettsii infection. It is challenging to identify the disease in dogs and other mammals due to the cross-reacting antibodies from non-pathogenic Rickettsia spp. Provided herein are compositions and methods for detection and treatment of Rocky Mountain spotted fever (“RMSF”). The compositions specifically detect Rickettsia rickettsii and do not cross-react with other Rickettsia species providing rapid and accurate detection and diagnosis of RMSF.

  • Patent number: 12192222
    Abstract: A method described herein involves various operations directed toward network security. The operations include accessing transaction data describing network traffic associated with a web server during an interval. Based on a count of new transactions involving an online entity during the interval according to the transaction data, a short-term trend is determined for the online entity. The operations further include applying exponential smoothing to a history of transactions of the online entity to compute a long-term trend for the online entity. Based on a comparison between the short-term trend and the long-term trend for the online entity, an anomaly is detected with respect to the online entity in the network traffic associated with the web server. Responsive to detecting the anomaly, an access control is implemented between the online entity and the web server.

  • Publication number: 20240404701
    Abstract: This application describes, among other things, systems and methods for configuring a task-specific machine-learning model. An example method includes, based on a request to modify a machine-learning model for performing a clinical task, retrieving a corresponding node architecture defining conditional logic for performing the clinical task. The conditional logic is executed based on a first order, including an input node, an output node, and an intermediate node, of a first set of interconnected nodes including a data source node, a machine-learning model node, and a conditional logic node. A representation is generated including a first feature for configuring conditional logic of the node architecture and a second feature for configuring a parameter of a node in the first set of interconnected nodes. A selection of the first or second feature defines a second order of a second set of interconnected nodes, causing the node architecture's conditional logic to be updated.
