Abstract: A system is provided for detection of unauthorized computer code using an artificial intelligence-based analyzer. The system may include an artificial intelligence-based analyzer configured to receive various data and metadata from a user computing device when the user computing device is used to capture a scannable code using an image capture device. The system may, using the AI-based engine, compare the scanned code with a pool or repository of previously scanned code to determine whether the code has been scanned before. The repository may further comprise various types of metadata regarding the scanned code, such as success rate, usual scanning location, embedded resources or links within the code, timestamps for when the code was previously scanned, and/or the like. Based on the analysis of the scanned code, the system may present a notification on the user computing device that indicates whether the scanned code is potentially unsafe to execute.

Abstract: An expanded multilayer integral geogrid includes a plurality of oriented strands interconnected by partially oriented junctions having an array of openings therein that is produced from a coextruded or laminated multilayer polymer starting sheet. The integral geogrid has a multilayer construction, with at least one inner layer thereof having a structure that is expanded relative to at least one other layer of the multiple layers. By virtue of the expanded inner layer structure, the expanded multilayer integral geogrid provides for increased layer compressibility under load, resulting in enhanced material properties that provide performance benefits to use of the expanded multilayer integral geogrid in soil geosynthetic reinforcement, and economic benefits compared to a like integral geogrid without an expanded inner layer structure.

Abstract: Embodiments included herein provide for texturized vegetable products and methods for texturizing a cottonseed-based protein. Some embodiments utilize cottonseed protein alone or in combination with other plant-based proteins. Detailed examples of cottonseed protein texturization are also provided.

Abstract: Embodiments determine event, e.g., performance degradation, security breach, etc., occurrence based on telemetry data. An embodiment receives telemetry data, e.g., data based on an HTTP transaction, and a rule associated with the telemetry data. The rule defines one or more filters for processing the telemetry data. In turn, a rule engine is modified in accordance with the received rule. The received telemetry data is processed with the modified rule engine to determine event occurrence.

Abstract: Certain embodiments disclosed herein reduce or eliminate a communication bottleneck at the storage manager by reducing communication with the storage manager while maintaining functionality of an information management system. In some implementations, a client obtains information for enabling a secondary storage job (e.g., a backup or restore) from a storage manager and stores the information (which may be referred to as job metadata) in a local cache. The client may then reuse the job metadata for multiple storage jobs reducing the frequency of communication with the storage manager. When a configuration of the information management system changes, or the availability of resources changes, the storage manager can push updates to the job metadata to the clients. Further, a client can periodically request updated job metadata from the storage manager ensuring that the client does not rely on out-of-date job metadata.

Abstract: Maintaining the security of biometric data is an utmost priority. Biometric data is secured using one or more techniques. With one technique, biometric input such as images of a user's palm is used to generate first primary data (PD). The original biometric input is deleted from temporary secure storage while the first PD is securely stored. The first PD may then be processed later to determine a second PD. The first PD may then be deleted, and the second PD subsequently used. With another technique, biometric input or a PD may be processed by a first model to determine first secondary data (SD) that is representative of features of a particular user within a first embedding space. Later the PD may be processed by a second model to determine a second SD in a second embedding space. The first SD is deleted, and the second SD subsequently used.
