Abstract: A computer-implemented method of identifying unauthorized logins may include: receiving a login request from a user device; using a machine learning model, generating a score corresponding to the login request, the machine learning model being trained to learn associations between identification data associated with login requests and scores based at least on (i) a set of prior login requests and (ii) a set of login classifications, each of the set of login classifications corresponding to at least one of the set of prior login requests; determining whether the score exceeds a predetermined score threshold; and in response to a determination that the score exceeds the predetermined score threshold, rejecting the login request and prompting a user of the user device to submit a renewed login request.

Abstract: A mounting system for solar modules includes a first plurality of purlins each comprising an upward facing opening providing access to a longitudinal channel of the purlin, a first row of solar panels extending along a first side of the longitudinal channel, and a second row of solar panels extending along a second side of the longitudinal channel. The first row of solar panels is spaced apart from the second row of solar panels by a gap located at the upward facing opening so as to accommodate a track or wheel of a solar module cleaning machine to be received therebetween. A tread layer can be disposed in the longitudinal channel(s) to provide a gripping surface (e.g., traction) for the track or wheel of the cleaning machine.

Abstract: An imaging member is disclosed which includes a charge generating layer and a charge transport layer. The charge transport layer includes a first charge transport layer adjacent the charge generating layer and at least a second charge transport layer adjacent the first charge transport layer. Each charge transport layer includes a film forming polymer binder and a charge transport material dispersed therein. The first charge transport material has a composition which is the same or different than the second charge transport material and of a lower concentration. It may be selected from an aryl amine, aryl diamine, or combinations thereof. The combination has the effect of reducing charge deficient spots.

Abstract: An imaging member having a charge transport layer is provided. The charge transport layer includes a plurality of charge transport layers coated from solutions of similar or different compositions or concentrations, wherein the upper or additional transport layer(s) comprise a lower concentration of charge transport compound than the first (bottom) charge transport layer. The charge transport compound included in the first (bottom) charge transport layer may either be the same or different from that included in the additional charge transport layers. The charge transport compound in one or more of the layers is dissolved or molecularly dispersed in an electrically inactive polymer material to form a solid solution. In such a construction, the resulting charge transport layer exhibits enhanced cracking suppression, improves wear resistance, provides excellent imaging member electrical performance, and delivers improved print quality.
