  • Publication number: 20240347108
    Abstract: A forming method of a ReRAM array includes steps as follows: Firstly, a first pulse is applied to a first ReRAM unit in the ReRAM array. Afterwards, a second pulse is applied to the first ReRAM unit, wherein the electrical property of the first pulse is opposite to that of the second pulse. Then, a verification pulse is applied to the first ReRAM unit to verify whether the first resistance value of the first ReRAM unit passes a preset threshold. When the first resistance value passes the preset threshold value, a third pulse is applied to the first ReRAM unit, wherein the first pulse and the third pulse have the same electrical property, and the first pulse has a voltage value substantially the same to that of the third pulse.

  • Publication number: 20240291834
    Abstract: Access to emails delivered to an employee of an enterprise is received. An incoming email addressed to the employee is acquired. A primary attribute is extracted from the incoming email by parsing at least one of: (1) content of the incoming email or (2) metadata associated with the incoming email. It is determined whether the incoming email deviates from past email activity, at least in part by determining, as a secondary attribute, a mismatch between a previous value for the primary attribute and a current value for the primary attribute, using a communication profile associated with the employee, and providing a measured deviation to at least one machine learning model.
