  • Publication number: 20240152726
    Abstract: A processor-implemented method for a neural architecture search (NAS) starts by generating an over-parameterized super network having multiple layers. The super network has multiple operator types. Each of the layers includes a largest super kernel corresponding to a search space. The method also includes performing gradient descent to evolve a largest super kernel to a small kernel corresponding to the search space in order to generate a range of kernel encodings. The method further includes identifying a subset of kernel encodings from the range of kernel encodings, for each layer of the super network, based on the gradient descent. The method determines a set of candidate architectures based on the subset of kernel encodings, each of the candidate architectures having a different model size. The method selects a target model, from the set of architectures, based on meeting hardware specifications, and then applies the target model.

  • Publication number: 20240103994
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for creating a resource management testing environment. An initial population of databases is established in a database ring, having an in initial count of databases and different types of databases that are determined based on an initial database population model. The initial population model receives ring classification information for the database ring from a ring grouping model. A sequence of database population-change events is generated based on a model, to change the population of the databases over time in the ring. An orchestration framework performs testing of resource manager operations based on the model-defined initial population of databases and the model-defined populations of databases changed over time. Model-defined resource usage metrics for each database are utilized to test the resource manager operations. Resource usage metrics and database add/drop events of a production system are used to train the models.

  • Publication number: 20230236404
    Abstract: A system for quantitative differential phase contrast microscopy with isotropic transfer function utilizes a modulation mechanism to create a detection light field having a radial or other axial orientation of optical intensity gradient or other distribution. A condenser generates an off-axis light field to project onto an object under examination, thereby generating an object light field, which is then guided to an image capturing device through an objective lens for capturing images. A differential phase contrast algorithm is applied to the images for obtaining a phase, thereby a depth information corresponding to the phase can be obtained to reconstruct the surface profile of the object.

  • Patent number: 11023210
    Abstract: In an approach to generating program analysis rules, one or more computer processors identify one or more unassociated code standard documents. The one or more computer processors feed the one or more unassociated code standard documents into a cognitive model, wherein the cognitive model utilizes one or more historical code standard documents based on the unassociated code standard documents and associated program analysis rules based on the unassociated code standard documents, wherein the historical code standard documents are natural language documents and the program analysis rules are programmatic. The one or more computer processors generate, based on one or more calculations by the cognitive model, one or more program analysis rules. The one or more computer processors correct one or more programmatic errors or one or more stylistic errors based on the generated one or more program analysis rules.

  • Patent number: 10904227
    Abstract: A request for a web page is received and the requested web page is retrieved. The web page is modified to obfuscate a set of form attribute values into a corresponding set of obfuscated form attribute values. The modified web page is transmitted to the requesting device. The modified web page does not include the set of form attribute values in their original form. Form data for the set of obfuscated form attribute values is received from the requesting device. The set of obfuscated form attribute values is deobfuscated thereby revealing the original set of form attribute values. The form data for the set of original form attribute values is further processed.

  • Patent number: 10178128
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for enabling an HSTS policy for a subdomain of a domain is described. A request for content at a subdomain of a domain is received at a proxy server from a client device over a secure transport. The proxy server determines whether the subdomain is associated with a rule indicating that Hypertext Transport Protocol Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is to be enabled for the subdomain of the domain. Responsive to determining that the subdomain is associated with the rule, the proxy server transmits, to the client device, a first response that includes an HSTS header and which instructs the client device to communicate only over the secure transport for requests for content at the subdomain, wherein the first response includes the HSTS header regardless of whether HSTS has been enabled for the subdomain at an origin server.
