Abstract: Partitions of drives are used to form a volume of a drive array. Each partition is associated with a trusted computing group (TCG) band. Each drive encrypts data stored on the partition with a key unique to the TCG band. The volume is formed using the partitions of the drives. In response to a band-based erasure being invoked on the volume, each drive of the plurality of drives overwrites the key of the TCG band associated with the partition and provides an erasure certificate attesting to the overwriting of the key. The erasure certifications from the drives are compiled into a consolidated erasure certification that attests to the erasure of the volume.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for machine learning model verification for assessment pipeline deployment. A service provider may provide AI hosting platforms that allow for clients, customers, and other end users to upload AI models for execution, such as machine learning models. A user may utilize one or more user interfaces to provide model data and files, such as model artifacts, model requirements, and model test data. Thereafter, a model deployer may validate that the AI hosting platform has the required code packages and other model framework requirements for the AI model. The model test data may be used to ensure that the AI model is behaving correctly and providing the correct predictions based on input data and features. If so, the AI model may be deployed in a live production computing environment and used for predictive services.

Abstract: Tokenized assets with associated value are transferred from a designated server to a mobile device. The associated value is removed from the designated server. The tokenized assets are transferred to a first trusted electronic device. The first trusted electronic device is associated with the mobile device. At least a portion of the tokenized assets are transferred to a second trusted electronic device such that the portion of the tokenized assets are only stored on the second trusted electronic device after the transfer. The second electronic device is associated with a second mobile device. The transfer occurs at a time when both the mobile device and the electronic device are offline.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for distributed decentralized machine learning model training. In certain embodiments, a first node in a network may comprise a circuit configured to receive an initial machine learning model having an initial parameter set, apply the local data to update parameters of the initial machine learning model to generate an updated machine learning model, transmit a copy of the updated machine learning model from the first node to a plurality of neighboring nodes in the network via a network interface, receive, via the network interface, a modified machine learning model from a first neighboring node, the modified machine learning model having parameters set based on local data of the first neighboring node, modify the updated machine learning model based on the modified machine learning model, and apply the updated machine learning model to control operations at the first node.

Abstract: A system includes a read/write controller removably coupled to a storage drive. Responsive to detection of a coupling between the read/write controller and the storage drive, the read/write controller retrieves key information from the storage drive, uses the key information to locate adaptives associated with the primary storage medium, and loads the adaptives into volatile memory to configure read/write settings for access to the primary storage medium.

Abstract: A configuration architecture is described. The configuration architecture may be in communication with a task management application to efficiently generate customized programs.

Abstract: Certain embodiments involve enhancing personalization of a virtual-commerce environment by identifying an augmented-reality visual of the virtual-commerce environment. For example, a system obtains a data set that indicates a plurality of augmented-reality visuals generated in a virtual-commerce environment and provided for view by a user. The system obtains data indicating a triggering user input that corresponds to a predetermined user input provideable by the user as the user views an augmented-reality visual of the plurality of augmented-reality visuals. The system obtains data indicating a user input provided by the user. The system compares the user input to the triggering user input to determine a correspondence (e.g., a similarity) between the user input and the triggering user input. The system identifies a particular augmented-reality visual of the plurality of augmented-reality visuals that is viewed by the user based on the correspondence and stores the identified augmented-reality visual.

Abstract: This disclosure generally covers systems and methods that identify objects within an augmented reality (“AR”) scene (received from a user) to gather information concerning the user's physical environment or physical features and to recommend products. In particular, the disclosed systems and methods detect characteristics of multiple objects shown within an AR scene received from a user and, based on the detected characteristics, select products to recommend to the user. When analyzing characteristics, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods determine visual characteristics associated with the real object or virtual object, such as color or location of an object. The disclosed systems and methods, in some embodiments, then select an endorsed product to recommend for use with the real object—based on the determined visual characteristics—and create a product recommendation that recommends the endorsed product.
