  • Patent number: 11119334
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to efficiently viewing data items in a three-dimensional (3D) space. The 3D space includes a curved surface that is concave with respect to a user-controlled viewpoint in the 3D space. The viewpoint is for controlling the direction and location of a rendered view of the 3D space. The data items have respective values associated therewith. The data items are arranged on the surface according to their values so that a user's ease of viewing the data items varies with their values; data items with some values may be arranged to be easier to view by manipulating the view direction than others (e.g., those with lower values). Ease of viewing can stem from how the surface is oriented relative to the viewpoint, the orientation of the curvature of the surface, the orientation of a controlling reference orientation, alignment of the data items on the surface, etc.

  • Patent number: 10489584
    Abstract: Identifying suspicious activity at a database of a multi-database system. A global evaluation of a plurality of interactions associated with a plurality of databases included within the multi-database system may be performed. A local evaluation of a plurality of interactions associated with a particular database of the plurality of databases may also be performed. The plurality of interactions associated with the particular database may comprise a subset of the plurality of interactions associated with the plurality of databases. A combination of both the global evaluation and the local evaluation may be analyzed to thereby identify one or more suspicious activities occurring at the particular database. Based on the analysis of the combination of the global evaluation and the local evaluation, one or more suspicious activities occurring at the particular database may then be identified.

  • Publication number: 20170279957
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for transportation-related mobile device context inferences. In one implementation a first visual capture can be received from a first visual capture component of a device; a second visual capture can be received from a second visual capture component of the device; and the first visual capture and the second visual capture can be processed by a processing device to determine an in-vehicle role of a user of the device. Various other technologies are also disclosed.
