Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for integrating an email client with hosted applications. An email is received from an email client. An image that is a component of the email is identified and sent to an optical character recognition (OCR) service. Extracted text is received from the OCR service. A request for an action object is then sent to a connector for an application, the action object representing a potential action that could be performed with the application based on the extracted text from the OCR service. The action object is then sent to the email client, which is configured to display a prompt allowing a user to perform the action represented by the action object.

Abstract: Certain embodiments disclosed herein reduce or eliminate a communication bottleneck at the storage manager by reducing communication with the storage manager while maintaining functionality of an information management system. In some implementations, a client obtains information for enabling a secondary storage job (e.g., a backup or restore) from a storage manager and stores the information (which may be referred to as job metadata) in a local cache. The client may then reuse the job metadata for multiple storage jobs reducing the frequency of communication with the storage manager. When a configuration of the information management system changes, or the availability of resources changes, the storage manager can push updates to the job metadata to the clients. Further, a client can periodically request updated job metadata from the storage manager ensuring that the client does not rely on out-of-date job metadata.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to knowledge based authentication whereby a user is authenticated through third-party linked accounts. The method includes receiving an authentication request from a merchant computer, assessing one or more data fields to generate an authentication challenge for the user, connecting to one or more third-party account service provider to extract user-related data, generating the authentication challenge based on the extracted user-related data from the third-party account service provider, posing the authentication challenge to the user on a user device, receiving a response to the authentication challenge, and returning the authentication response to the merchant.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for automatically identifying fraud, waste or abuse in health insurance claims submitted to insurance companies by healthcare providers. Insurance claim information and at one image associated with the insurance claim may be received, where the image has been submitted by a healthcare provider to an insurance carrier as supporting evidence of a medical service performed by the healthcare provider. The system may generate a digital signature representing the image, then may compare the digital signature generated for the image to previously generated digital signatures of other images that have been submitted in association with other insurance claims. The system may then determine a likelihood that the given insurance claim is associated with fraud, waste or abuse, based in part on whether the digital signature is identical or close to one or more of the previously generated digital signatures.

Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a gas mixer that includes a convergent-divergent nozzle comprising a convergent portion and a divergent portion and defining a first gas flow path, an air housing comprising an air inlet configured to supply air to the first gas flow path upstream of the convergent-divergent nozzle, a gas housing defining a second gas flow path and including a first gas inlet configured to receive a secondary gas and allow the secondary gas into a second gas flow path, and a gas nozzle positioned parallel to and centrally within the first gas flow path in a convergent portion of the convergent-divergent nozzle, the gas nozzle configured to supply the secondary gas to the first gas flow path upstream of the divergent portion.

Abstract: A tracking system includes a host station and a sensor station. The sensor station includes transmitters transmitting an IR synchronous signal and IR laser signal. The system includes a head-mounted display and a tracked object, which has a plurality of object sensors. The tracked object determines its location and orientation relative to the sensor station based on the IR signals. The tracked object transmits the location and orientation to the host station. The host station determines an actual flight path of the tracked object during an object tracking event; generates a predicted flight path of the tracked object; and renders an image of a virtual object on a display of the head-mounted display. The image includes a virtual object corresponding to the tracked object, wherein the image is rendered in a VR environment such that the virtual object moves along the actual flight path and the predicted flight path.

Abstract: Various embodiments set forth techniques for free space management in a block store. The techniques include receiving a request to allocate one or more blocks in a block store, accessing a sparse hierarchical data structure to identify an allocator page identifying a region of a backing store having a greatest number of free blocks, and allocating the one or more blocks.

Based on application of a CoBot description language to the CoBot requirement, a CoBot workflow that specifies a plurality of tasks to be performed by the CoBot may be generated. A determination may be made as to whether a task is to be performed by a bot or by a human. A team that includes a plurality of bots and at least one human may be generated to execute the CoBot workflow. The bots of the team may be prioritized to identify a bot that is a best match to the CoBot requirement. The CoBot that includes configured bots may be deployed in an operational environment to perform the CoBot workflow.

Abstract: Hyperspectral data associated with hyperspectral images received for any Region of Interest (ROI) is in form of number of pixel vectors. Unlike conventional methods in the art that treat this pixel vector as a time series, the embodiments herein provide a method and system that analyzes the pixel vectors by transforming the pixel vector into two-dimensional spectral shape space and then perform convolution over the image of graph thus formed. Learning from pixel vectors directly may not capture the spectral details efficiently. The intuition is to learn the spectral features as represented by the shape of a spectrum or in other words the features which a spectroscopy expert uses to interpret the spectrum. Method and system disclosed converts the pixel vector into image and provides a DCNN architecture that is built for processing 2D visual representation of the pixel vectors to learn spectral and classify the pixels.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for identifying bogon addresses. A system can obtain an indication of address spaces in a network. The indication can be based on route advertisements transmitted by routers associated with the network. The system can receive a report generated by a capturing agent deployed on a host. The report can identify a flow captured by the capturing agent at the host. The system can identify a network address associated with the flow and, based on the indication of address spaces, the system can determine whether the network address is within the address spaces in the network. When the network address is not within the address spaces in the network, the system can determine that the network address is a bogon address. When the network address is within the address spaces in the network, the system can determine that the network address is not a bogon address.
