Abstract: Techniques for building, training, or otherwise developing models of the behavior of employees across more than one channel used for communication are disclosed. These models can be stored in profiles that are associated with the employees. Such profiles allow behavior to be monitored across multiple channels so that deviations can be detected and then examined. Remediation can be performed if an account is determined to be compromised based on its recent activity.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining safety of a battery are disclosed, where the method includes identifying a charge state or a discharge state of the battery, activating pulse probe currents at different depths of charge or discharge (charge/discharge) of the battery, in response to identifying the charge or discharge state of the battery, and detecting and differentiating between a state of short (SOS) and a state of health (SOH) of the battery based on variations of the pulse probe currents as a function of the depths of charge/discharge.

Abstract: Examples of file analytics systems are described that may obtain event data from a virtualized file server. The event data may be aggregated and/or filtered to provide metrics. The file analytics system may obtain event data from the virtualized file server. The file analytics system may process multiple streams of event data in parallel by separating messages corresponding to the event data message topic into multiple partition pipelines. To avoid processing events related to a particular file out of chronological order, the analytics tool may distribute events for the particular file to the same message topic partition pipeline.

Abstract: Stacked thermal process chamber module for remote radiative heating of semiconductor device workpieces. A stacked thermal process module may include a stack of thermal process chambers and one or more generators of electromagnetic radiation. The electromagnetic radiation may be transported from a generator remote from the process chambers through one or more waveguides, thereby minimizing the volume and/or cleanroom footprint of the stacked thermal process chamber module. A waveguide may terminate in a process chamber so that electromagnetic radiation delivered during a thermal process may be coupled into one or more materials of the workpiece. The radiative heating process may overcome many of the limitations of thermal process chambers that instead employ a local heat source located within a process chamber.

Abstract: A redundant tracking system comprising multiple redundant tracking sub-systems, enabling seamless transitions between such tracking sub-systems, provides a solution to this problem by merging multiple tracking approaches into a single tracking system. This system is able to combine tracking objects with six degrees of freedom (6DoF) and 3DoF through combining and transitioning between multiple tracking systems based on the availability of tracking indicia tracked by the tracking systems. Thus, as the indicia tracked by any one tracking system becomes unavailable, the redundant tracking system seamlessly switches between tracking in 6DoF and 3DoF thereby providing the user with an uninterrupted experience.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a multiplexed design with three-dimensional plasmonic nanofocusing and confinement of light, demonstration of reproducible and robust single-molecule optical fingerprints using two complementary vibrational spectroscopy techniques (infrared and Raman spectroscopy), identification of respective vibrational modes which uniquely fingerprint the biomolecular species, and facile differentiation of respective fingerprints in DNA mixtures, as well as epigenetic modifications. While the nanometer scale mode volumes still prevent single letter identification of DNA sequence, we show an alternative method for identifying A, T, G, C DNA nucleotides in “k-mers” using sequences of these blocks as a unique and high-throughput alternative to single letter sequences (similar to binary and hexadecimal systems). Furthermore, additivity shown in single-molecule DNA mixtures and robust optical signatures can also be used in a raster-type step scan to identify single letter sequences.

Abstract: Example apparatuses and methods are described for providing a swell packer apparatus having a vulcanized non-swelling outer layer with a pattern cut into it to expose an inner swellable sealing element. In an example embodiment, the swell packer includes a mandrel having a substantially cylindrical outer surface. A sealing element extends radially around the mandrel and a non-swelling layer circumferentially covers an outer surface of the sealing element. One or more grooves are cut in the non-swelling layer to expose a portion of the outer surface of the sealing element. The non-swelling layer is configured to prevent fluid communication between a swelling fluid disposed outside of the non-swelling layer and portions of the outer surface of the sealing element covered by the non-swelling layer.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for hierarchichal sharding of flows from sensors to collectors. A first collector can receive a first portion of a network flow from a first capturing agent and determine that a second portion of the network flow was not received from the first capturing agent. The first collector can then send the first portion of the network flow to a second collector. A third collector can receive the second portion of the network flow from a second capturing agent and determine that the third collector did not receive the first portion of the network flow. The third collector can then send the second portion of the network flow to the second collector. The second collector can then aggregate the first portion and second portion of the network flow to yield the entire portion of the network flow.
