  • Publication number: 20240126872
    Abstract: A labeling method for information security detection rules and tactic, technique and procedure (TTP) labeling device for the same are provided. The labeling method includes: obtaining reference documents related to definitions of TTP and classify the reference documents to generate corpuses; creating a keyword thesaurus; obtaining to-be-labeled detection rules, and extracting key information fields from the to-be-labeled detection rules and comparing the key information fields with keywords, so as to label the to-be-labeled detection rules; for the to-be-labeled detection rules that are not labeled, performing a text similarity calculation on the key information fields and the corpuses, and labeling those not labeled of the to-be-labeled detection rules with the corpus having the highest similarity; training with the labeled detection rules and the corpuses as a training data set to generate a TTP labeling model; and inputting a current to-be-labeled detection rule to generate a TTP labeling result.

  • Patent number: 11934376
    Abstract: A database management engine provides a user interface that allows users to access and modify employee information in a database. The database includes entries for employees, and each database entry includes identifying information about the associated employee. A user can request to modify data within database entries, for instance in order to update information associated with an employee. Responsive to the request, the database management engine identifies liabilities associated with the database modification stemming from associated tax laws. Based on the identified tax liabilities, the engine computes the aggregate tax liability owed by the employer and/or employee. Before modifying a database entry, the engine modifies the user interface to include interface elements detailing the computed aggregate tax liability. The user explicitly can be required to confirm the database modification in view of the aggregate tax liability.

  • Patent number: 10408882
    Abstract: A method for predicting a remaining useful life of a lithium battery based on a wavelet denoising and a relevance vector machine, relating to a method for estimating health condition and predicting remaining useful life of lithium battery, includes steps of: (1) obtaining health condition data of each of charge-discharge cycles of the lithium battery by measurement; (2) processing capacity data measured of the lithium battery with wavelet double denoising; (3) calculating a capacity threshold where the lithium battery fails; (4) referring to capacity data and charge-discharge cycle data of the lithium battery, applying a differential evolution algorithm for optimizing a width factor of the relevance vector machine; and (5) predicting the remaining useful life of the lithium battery with the relevance vector machine optimized by the differential evolution algorithm. The method is simple and effective, which can accurately predict remaining useful life of lithium battery.
