Abstract: Circuits and methods for testing voltage monitor circuits are provided. In an embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) includes power management unit (PMU), a set-reset (S-R) latch circuit, a multiplexer, and an AND gate circuit. A voltage monitor circuit of the PMU generates an output signal based on a difference between a received reference voltage and a received sense voltage from a functional supply. A power on reset (PoR) generator of the PMU generates a PoR signal based on a power up condition of the PMU. The S-R latch circuit generates an enable signal based on the output signal of the comparator circuit and the PoR signal. The multiplexer passes-through the output signal of the comparator circuit during a functional condition of the PMU. The AND gate circuit generates an enable signal based on an output of the multiplexer and an output of the S-R latch circuit.

Abstract: A method, and a computer with instructions for performance of the method. An applet runs on a user device of the internet. Using a reliable interface on the user device, the applet has captured validation data describing the user device and software execution on the user device. The captured validation data are stored. The validation data includes at least a unique device ID for the user device, and a session ID for a program running on the user device.

Abstract: Segmentation first breaks the images into segments or regions, with the segments of the region having text or symbols. The segmented image is separately applied to two different CNN-based models. Each model produces text boxes where potential text might exist. Then, a selective NMS algorithm is applied to the output of each model to produce a final group of text regions. These text regions are analyzed and actions taken.

In response to detecting anomalous activity, the NMCs may provide other scores based on the anomalous activity and provide a report that includes the other scores to a user.
