  • Patent number: 11917038
    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed to compress packets, the apparatus comprising; a data analyzer to identify a new destination address and a protocol identifier of an input packet corresponding to a new destination node and a communication system between the new destination node and a source node; a compression engine to utilize a plurality of compression functions based on the new destination address and the protocol identifier and reduce a size of the input packet; a compression analyzer to identify a reduced packet and a compression function identifier corresponding to the reduced packet, the compression function identifier associated with one of the compression functions; and a source modifier to construct a packet to include the compression function identifier by modifying unregistered values of a protocol identifier by a difference associated with the compression function identifier, the packet to inform the new destination node of a compression function.

  • Patent number: 11755689
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to manage process excursions. An example apparatus includes a digital twin comparer to determine when a product fails to satisfy a tolerance metric of a digital twin, and a fingerprint manager to generate a fingerprint corresponding to a sensor pattern. The example apparatus also includes a node interfacer to determine a number of workstations of a process control system that exhibit the fingerprint, and an excursion statistics calculator to invoke a corrective action for respective ones of the number of workstations, the corrective action based on a threshold count of the number of workstations that exhibit the fingerprint.

  • Patent number: 11019107
    Abstract: Some aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for identifying potential violation conditions from electronic communications. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving data associated with an electronic communication and detecting, from the received data, and using a trainable model, an indicator of a potential violation condition, where the violation condition is associated with an activity that is a violation of a predetermined standard. The method also includes, responsive to detecting the indicator of the potential violation condition, marking the electronic communication as being associated with a potential violation condition, and presenting the potential violation condition to a user for review.

  • Patent number: 9535902
    Abstract: In some aspects, the present disclosure relates to coreference resolution. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining unstructured text data including a plurality of references corresponding to entities, and determining, from the unstructured text data, attributes associated with the entities. The method also includes obtaining structured data including predefined attributes associated with the entities, and comparing attributes associated with a first coreference unit with attributes associated with a second coreference unit. The first coreference unit is a sub-entity representation having the attributes determined from the unstructured text data and the second coreference unit is a sub-entity representation having the predefined attributes. The method further includes determining, based on the comparison, whether the first coreference unit and the second coreference unit both correspond to the same entity.
