Abstract: An electronic device and a method for digitization of human motion data for semantic search is provided. The electronic device receives a sequence of input images depicting a physical performance associated with a body movement discipline and extracts a localized instance of a performer associated with the physical performance from an image frame of the sequence of image frames. The electronic device determines a plurality of performance attributes associated with the performer based on application of an attribute recognition network on the localized instance. The plurality of performance attributes comprises an emotion attribute, a posture attribute, and a hand gesture attribute. The electronic device searches a performance database based on the plurality of performance attributes to generate a search result. The search result specifies whether the localized instance represents an unregistered pose or a registered pose of the body movement discipline.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing method for providing an event timer for event synchronization across Kubernetes clusters. The event timer is configured to provide event synchronization on behalf of microservice instances in the cloud computing environment. In response to a request for an event timer for a timed event, it is determined whether the requested event timer has been started for a second microservice instance. If the requested event timer has been started, a state of the requested event timer is sent to the first microservice instance If the requested event timer has not been started, the requested event timer is instantiated, and a state of the instantiated event timer is stored in a database. The instantiated event timer is independent of the first and second microservice instances. In response to an expiration of the event timer, a single callback for processing of the event is generated.

Abstract: An immunogenic composition having 13 distinct polysaccharide-protein conjugates and optionally, an aluminum-based adjuvant, is described. Each conjugate contains a capsular polysaccharide prepared from a different serotype of Streptococcus pneumoniae (1, 3, 4, 5, 6A, 66, 7F, 9V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F and 23F) conjugated to a carrier protein. The immunogenic composition, formulated as a vaccine, increases coverage against pneumococcal disease in infants and young children globally, and provides coverage for serotypes 6A and 19A that is not dependent on the limitations of serogroup cross-protection. Methods for making an immunogenic conjugate comprising Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 19A polysaccharide are also provided in which the serotype 19A polysaccharide is co-lyophilized with a carrier protein and conjugation is carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) via a reductive amination mechanism.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing pattern detection as a first step for security improvements of a computer network. The pattern detection may utilize a machine learning (ML) model for predicting network tuple parameters. The ML model can be trained on labelled data flow information and deployed by a central server for preventing network-wide cyber-security challenges (e.g., including DNS flux, etc.). Networking devices (e.g. switches, etc.) can monitor the data flow traffic that it receives from the networking devices and classify network tuple parameters based on the flow behavior. The system can compare the output of the ML model (e.g., a classification of the data flow traffic, etc.) to an implicit label (e.g., the network tuple parameter included with the data flow traffic, etc.). When the classification matches a particular network tuple parameter, the system can generate an alert and/or otherwise identify potential network intrusions and other abnormalities.

Abstract: A domain transformation system may determine a source ontology for a source domain of a first environment. The source domain relates to a process performed in the first environment. The process may be transformed from the source domain to a target domain of a second environment, such as a virtual environment. The domain transformation system may determine a first portion of a target ontology for the target domain. The domain transformation system may generate, using a machine learning technique, a first embedding of the source ontology and a second embedding of the target ontology. The domain transformation system may generate a joint embedding based on the first embedding and the second embedding domain transformation system and may determine a second portion of the target ontology, based on the joint embedding, using a transfer learning technique. The domain transformation system may refine the target ontology using a neuro-symbolic artificial intelligence technique.
