  • Patent number: 12291996
    Abstract: Methods of controlling an in-line heater for an energy storage device are provided. A determination is made that a pump is running. When running, the pump circulates a thermal management fluid through a thermal management conditioning loop, which includes the in-line heater and a heat transfer hardware configured to transfer heat between the thermal management fluid and the energy storage device, wherein the in-line heater is in thermal communication with the thermal management fluid. The in-line heater is turned on in response to the determination that the pump is running and a temperature of the thermal management fluid is below a lower control limit.

  • Publication number: 20250141893
    Abstract: Techniques described herein can perform obfuscation detection on command lines used at computing devices in a network. In response to detecting obfuscation in a command line, the disclosed techniques can output a notification for use in connection with network security analysis. The command line obfuscation detection techniques include pre-processing command line input data and converting command lines into token groups. The token groups are then provided as an input to a natural language processor or other machine learned model, which is trained to identify obfuscation probabilities associated with token groups can corresponding command lines. A notification is generated to trigger further analysis in response to an obfuscation probability exceeding a threshold obfuscation probability.

  • Publication number: 20240403459
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for an enterprise data container (EDC) that facilitates the secure transfer of data between data boundaries of one or more computing environments. In examples, the EDC serves as a message wrapper for transmitted data. The EDC includes metadata, identification, tracking, security attributes, authenticity, and handling caveats relevant to the operational constraints of one or more computing environments through which data is transferred. The EDC is computing environment agnostic and agnostically manages the data wrapped in the EDC.

  • Patent number: 12154037
    Abstract: A technique for providing real time feedback from a machine learning system is provided that includes a method and system for interactively training machine learning models. In particular, by separating processing and analysis using static and dynamic models that are trained differently, the disclosed technique enables interactive training and prediction of machine learning models to increase the speed of generating new predictions based on real time feedback. In some cases, a dynamic model is applied to the output of a static model to generate an analysis, a correction of the analysis is received, and the correction is used to retrain the dynamic model. An updated analysis is generated based on reapplying the dynamic model to the output of the static model without having to retrain the static model.
