  • Patent number: 12175351
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for pre-fetching data from memory using neural networks. One example system receives a sequence of prior program counter addresses of a computer program and corresponding delta values. The system creates an input representation based on the sequence. The system provides the input representation as input to a recurrent neural network. The system receives from the recurrent neural network an output that defines a probability distribution over future delta values. Each probability in the distribution represents a likelihood that execution of a future instruction of the computer program will cause data to be fetched from a particular future memory address.

  • Patent number: 12175039
    Abstract: A method includes a processing module obtaining touch data at a touch data rate. The method further includes the processing module obtaining video data at a refresh rate, wherein the touch data rate is greater than the refresh rate. For a frame of the video data, the method further includes the processing module determining a touch movement trend based on the touch data. The method further includes the processing module determining a position offset for a graphical representation of the touch data based on the touch movement trend. When the position offset exceeds an offset threshold, the method further includes the processing module adjusting position of the graphical representation of the touch data within the frame of video data based on the position offset to produce an adjusted frame of video data.

  • Patent number: 12177672
    Abstract: Security policies are made dependent on location of a device and the location of a device is determined and the appropriate security policy applied without providing the device's location to a server. A device determine its location and identifies a security policy identifier mapped to a zone including the location. The device requests the security policy corresponding to the identifier from a server and implements it. The device may also store a database of the security policies and implement them according to its location. Devices registered for a user evaluate whether locations detected for the devices correspond to impossible travel by the user. Objects encoding geolocation data of a device may be encrypted with a private key of the device and the public key of another to prevent access by an intermediary server.
