    Abstract: A graph-based clinical concept mapping algorithm maps ICD-9 (International Classification of Disease, Revision 9) and ICD-10 (International Classification of Disease, Revision 10) codes to unified Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) clinical concepts to normalize longitudinal healthcare data to thereby improve tracking and the use of such data for research and commercial purposes. The graph-based clinical concept mapping algorithm advantageously combines a novel graph-based search algorithm and natural language processing to map orphan ICD codes (those without equivalents across codebases) by finding optimally relevant shared SNOMED concepts. The graph-based clinical concept mapping algorithm is further advantageously utilized to group ICD-9/10 codes into higher order, more prevalent SNOMED concepts to support clinical interpretation.

  • Patent number: 11949692
    Abstract: A comprehensive cybersecurity platform includes a cybersecurity intelligence hub, a cybersecurity sensor and one or more endpoints communicatively coupled to the cybersecurity sensor, where the platform allows for efficient scaling, analysis, and detection of malware and/or malicious activity. An endpoint includes a local data store and an agent that monitors for one or more types of events being performed on the endpoint, and performs deduplication within the local data store to identify “distinct” events. The agent provides the collected metadata of distinct events to the cybersecurity sensor which also performs deduplication within a local data store. The cybersecurity sensor sends all distinct events and/or file objects to a cybersecurity intelligence hub for analysis. The cybersecurity intelligence hub is coupled to a data management and analytics engine (DMAE) that analyzes the event and/or object using multiple services to render a verdict (e.g., benign or malicious) and issues an alert.

  • Patent number: 11947935
    Abstract: Custom source code generation models are generated by tuning a pre-trained deep learning model by freezing the model parameters and optimizing a prefix. The tuning process is distributed across a user space and a model space where the embedding and output layers are performed in the user space and the execution of the model is performed in a model space that is isolated from the user space. The tuning process updates the embeddings of the prefix across the separate execution spaces in a manner that preserves the privacy of the data used in the tuning process.
