  • Publication number: 20250245340
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for mitigating third-party code vulnerabilities in AI code generation services. A large language model generates an inference based on a user's code generation request. A middleware layer intercepts the inference prior to its availability within an AI pair programming client and parses the inference to identify third-party packages. A validation module checks the identified third-party packages against one or more registries of certified packages. If an uncertified third-party package is detected, the middleware layer either redacts the inference or modifies it by identifying a certified third-party package alternative. The system enhances security in AI-assisted code generation by ensuring the use of certified third-party packages.

  • Publication number: 20250156751
    Abstract: Users interact with items, such as movies, music, and document templates, among others. Item recommendations based on these user interactions are determined and provided to a user. A binary matrix indicating what items users have interacted with is provided. A design matrix is determined from the binary matrix. In this format, the model can be processed in parallel by a computing device. Columns of the design matrix are processed by threads of one or more CPUs of a computing system, in which a least squares analysis is performed over each thread. The output of the processing is a trained model useable for outputting an item recommendation responsive to an input user interaction during inference.

  • Patent number: 12296197
    Abstract: Devices, systems and techniques are used for cancer treatment. An example control device may be configured to be communicatively coupled to a radiation source of a radiotherapy device and a position sensor of the radiotherapy device. The example control device may be used to calculate, for a sliding window of a radiotherapy treatment, a positional error between: a measured target position signal determined from a series of images and sampled at the acquisition times of the images, and an estimated target position signal. The example control device may generate a computer-executable instruction configured to alter the radiotherapy treatment in response to the positional error violating a threshold.

  • Publication number: 20250122358
    Abstract: The present invention relates to stabilizer composition for halogen-containing polymer. It has recently been found that tin-based thermal stabilizers with a bridging alkyl group between two tin centers are effective stabilizers while having effectively double the molecular weight of the corresponding non-alkyl bridged stabilizer. It is expected that ongoing experimentation will confirm that the alkyl bridged stabilizers have much lower volatility which leads to greater retention of the stabilizer in the finished article.

  • Patent number: 12265587
    Abstract: Connections among two different entities are identified by processing a collection of documents to identify one or more documents that contain co-occurring mentions of each of the two different entities. This relationship may be graphically displayed in a user interface with an icon or the like for each of the two entities, along with a graphical link interconnecting the entities. The graphical link can be an active element of the user interface that responds to user interactions by providing access to evidence within the collection of documents that substantiates the connection between the two entities. In one aspect, a search input form field in a user interface may be used to explicitly request documents that substantiate a relationship between two entities. In another aspect, a user may ground entity mentions by explicitly selecting documents that mention an entity of interest.
