  • Publication number: 20240146747
    Abstract: Methods and systems for multi-cloud breach detection using ensemble classification and deep anomaly detection are disclosed. According to an implementation, a security appliance may receive logged event data. The security appliance may determine using a supervised machine learning (ML) model, a first anomaly score representing a first context. The security appliance may further determine using a semi-supervised machine learning (ML) model, a second anomaly score representing the second context, and using an unsupervised ML model, one or more third anomaly scores representing one or more third contexts. The security appliance may aggregate the first anomaly score, the second anomaly score and the one or more third anomaly scores using a classification module to produce a final anomaly score and a final context. The security appliance may determine that an anomaly exists and a type of attack based on the final anomaly score and the final context.

  • Patent number: 11913267
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a chassis, a door track, a door operatively connected to the door track and adapted to move between a closed position and an open position, and a hinge assembly coupled to the door. The hinge assembly is movably coupled to the door track and includes a first bracket coupled to the door, a second bracket coupled to the first bracket, and a transport assembly coupled to the second bracket and adapted to move along the door track as the door moves between the open and closed positions. The transport assembly includes a coupling member for releasably coupling the second bracket to the transport assembly. Upon movement of the second bracket from the first position to the second position, the door moves to an extended open position with respect to the door track.

  • Publication number: 20230328097
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems disclosed herein measure endpoint user security event susceptibility (e.g., a malware infection) and provide information for endpoint posture evaluation. A relatively small software application may be installed using, for example, a systems management push system where the software runs on each endpoint system and reports back to a central repository or base system. The software runs on machines that it is pushed to and generates a score for that endpoint. That score is a quantification of endpoint user security risk, i.e., the likelihood that a particular endpoint is likely to be the source of a security event at some point in the future. This information may be used to generate a Relative Score for each endpoint so that the endpoints can be ranked from most secure to least secure and an Absolute Score so that a given distributed system can be compared to other distributed systems.

  • Publication number: 20230326091
    Abstract: Systems and methods of testing a vehicle system. The systems and methods generate a simulation of a driving scenario to provide simulation video data, display the simulation on a monitor using the simulation video data, capture the displayed simulation using a camera system of the vehicle system to provide video data, process the video data using a perception algorithm to detect and track objects in the video data to provide perception data, control a vehicle actuator of the vehicle system in response to the perception data to provide command data, and adapt the simulation based on the command data. The camera system has a field of view and the monitor has a viewable area. The simulation of the driving scenario is scaled in proportion to a ratio of the field of view of the camera projected onto the monitor and dimensions of the viewable area.

  • Patent number: 11513092
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a gas sensor that includes a hotplate, a support structure, a gas selective filter, and circuitry. The support structure is configured to define a cavity. The gas selective filter is held by the support structure and spans the cavity. Various components are connected to the circuitry, and may include a temperature sensor element, a gas sensing element, and a heater. The temperature sensor element is configured to sense a temperature Tf of the filter. The gas sensing element is sensitive to a target gas in the cavity. The heater is in thermal communication with the gas sensing element. The circuitry is configured to operate the sensing element, estimate a temperature Tf of the filter, and regulate the heater. The circuitry regulates an extent to which power is supplied to the heater based on the estimated temperature Tf of the filter.

  • Publication number: 20220324532
    Abstract: Chips removably attached to a bicycle frame allow different size hubs and axles to be connected to a frame. As the frame represents a major part of the investment in a bicycle, the chips allow a single frame to accommodate different wheels. The user can then use a wheel having the appropriate tire and attachments for the terrain to be traversed. For instance, a particular wheel and tire would be used for a downhill mountain trail, another wheel used for riding on paved surfaces and a third wheel hub would be used for loose surfaces, such as sand or gravel. Therefore, the user is able to adapt the bicycle for a variety of different terrains and uses.
