  • Patent number: 10229227
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to managing a group of geometric objects. The group of geometric objects are correlated to a set of spatial zones associated with an architectural layout. A first geometric object of the group of geometric objects is detected. The first geometric object has a first geometric object size value. By comparing the first geometric object size value with a threshold geometric object size value, it is determined to convert the first geometric object. Based on proximity, a group of conversion candidates is identified from the group of geometric objects. Based on the first geometric object and the group of conversion candidates, a second geometric object is determined using a geometric criterion. Using the second geometric object, a design-model of the architectural layout is established.

  • Publication number: 20180163763
    Abstract: A construction nailing screw is configured to be used in like manner as traditional nails but rotate during driving through threading, providing retention of the construction nailing screw in the construction material(s), and the ability to be removed from the construction material(s) by reverse rotation. The construction nailing screw is characterized by a shank with a head on one longitudinal end, and a tip on another longitudinal end, with external threading that provides minimal friction during installation and mild resistance during removal, and two cutouts extending along the exterior of the shank and through the external threading. The head allows both a manual installation tool and an automatic installation tool to strike the head and drive (install) the nailing screw. The external threading has an upper side with a high pitch relative to the longitudinal axis of the shank, and a lower side with a low pitch relative to the longitudinal axis of the shank.

  • Patent number: 9992215
    Abstract: A system for identifying a network intrusion includes four modules. The first module monitors network transmissions and creates a model of regular network activity. The second module receives the model of regular network activity and sets a threshold for irregular usage based on the model. The third module receives the threshold, compares a value of a candidate inter-nodal transmission of the network to the threshold, and identifies a potential intrusion when the value exceeds the threshold. The fourth module analyzes a transmission behavior of one or more nodes of the candidate inter-nodal transmission and identifies the network intrusion.

  • Publication number: 20180032647
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to managing a set of spatial zones associated with an architectural layout. A first spatial zone of the set of spatial zones is detected. The first spatial zone has a first spatial zone size value. By comparing the first spatial zone size value with a threshold spatial zone size value, it is determined to convert the first spatial zone. Based on proximity, a group of conversion candidates is identified from the set of spatial zones. Based on the first spatial zone and the group of conversion candidates, a second spatial zone is determined using an architectural criterion. Using the second spatial zone, a design-model of the architectural layout is established.

  • Publication number: 20180032645
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to managing a group of geometric objects. The group of geometric objects is correlated to a set of spatial zones associated with an architectural layout. A set of contours is detected. The set of contours has a set of junctures. The set of junctures is based on a cluster of wall segments. The cluster of wall segments represent a set of walls of the architectural layout. Based on the cluster of wall segments, a set of wall edges is resolved. The set of wall edges interrelate with the set of contours. Based on the set of wall edges, the group of geometric objects is determined. The group of geometric objects represent the set of walls. Using the group of geometric objects, a design-model of the architectural layout is established.

  • Publication number: 20180032643
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to design-model management associated with an architectural layout. A set of architectural objects may be ingested from a data source. In response to ingesting the set of architectural objects, a set of spatial zones may be determined. The determination can be made based on the ingestion of the set of architectural objects. In response to determining the set of spatial zones, a design-model of the architectural layout may be established. The establishment of the design-model can be based on the set of spatial zones.

  • Publication number: 20170149813
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for identifying anomalous network behavior. In aspects, a network event may be observed network sensors. One or more characteristics may be extracted from the network event and used to construct an evidence vector. The evidence vector may be compared to a mapping of previously-identified events and/or event characteristics. The mapping may be represented as one or more clusters of expected behaviors and anomalous behaviors. The mapping may be modeled using analytic models for direction detection and magnitude detection. One or more centroids may be identified for each of the clusters. A “best fit” may be determined and scored for each of the analytic models. The scores may be fused into single binocular score and used to determine whether the evidence vector is likely to represent an anomaly.

  • Patent number: 9650088
    Abstract: A work vehicle includes a frame having opposed compartments to receive a lubricating liquid for providing lubrication to a corresponding motor-powered chain drive. The chain drive is usable to drivingly move a continuous track or a set of wheels for moving the work vehicle. The continuous track and the set of wheels are interchangeably receivable by the frame, the frame remaining virtually identical whether receiving the continuous track or the set of wheels.
