Network Device System Logging Summarization Based On Low-Rank Adaptation And Contrastive Learning, Cheng Jiao, Bruce Yang, Lynn Chen, Xinqi Wang, Qihong Shao

Defensive Publications Series

Techniques are presented herein that support the automatic generation of refined and summarized text from a system logging (syslog) message sequence. Aspects of the presented techniques employ an abstractive syslog summarization large language model (LLM) that is trained with contrastive learning and then fine-tuned using a Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) methodology. Under further aspects of the presented techniques, auxiliary text (such as network incident reports and application incident reports) is added to the prompt of the input of the LLM model to help the model generate a richer syslog summarization.

Under a first technique, after an emergency event such as a gunshot is either automatically detected by a camera or manually initiated by a user, or when a dangerous object such as a gun is detected by a camera, a network may react by associating the source of the dangerous event or object with a person based on proximity data; identifying the physical characteristics of the person (such as height, hair color, clothing, visible tattoos, etc.); attaching such …

Dynamic Prioritization For Full Stack Observability, Shridevi Rajeshwar, Avanish Kumar Chauhan, Angelo Mantellini, Dmitry Goloubew

Defensive Publications Series

Alert fatigue is a well-known issue that impacts many enterprise information technology (IT) teams. Those teams are constantly looking for ways to reduce the mean time to identify (MTTI) and the mean time to resolve (MTTR) issues to minimize the impact to a business. When such a team is inundated with a very large number of alerts, they become desensitized to those alerts and metrics such as MTTI and MTTR increase. Such a desensitization has other negative repercussions that, together, impact a business and affect the adoption of a full-stack observability (FSO) approach. Techniques are presented herein that address these …

Assessing Risk Introduced Through A Code Change, Dhruv H Raithatha, Girish Sivasubramanian, John A Foley, Chandra Mohan Babu Nadiminti, Randy Birdsall

Defensive Publications Series

Techniques are presented herein that shift the risk assessment focus during a software development process, away from the traditional end-of-process review (when a new feature is delivered, or an application is deployed) to earlier in the process when developers are actively at work. Such an approach allows a developer to assess the risk that a candidate software change is about to introduce prior to the developer committing that change, providing the developer with time (during the early portion of the process) to revisit the software and eliminate the identified risk. Aspects of the presented techniques leverage elements of a continuous …

Hybrid Multi-Layer Metal Nanowire Interconnect

Defensive Publications Series

For AR glasses, transparency is a challenge both from user interface design perspective and a technical perspective. Inside out (user view) and outside in (world view) conspicuity is one of the most challenging issues in AR glass design. It may be advantageous to put electronics (e.g. light sources or sensors) in/on lenses of AR glasses. However, electronics on the lenses would require traces/interconnects to power or communicate with those electronics. AR glasses (as transparent lenses) should be designed such that the user cannot see the interconnects on the lens (direct view of the metal traces or reflections from the trace …

Generating Website Terms Of Service Summary Using A Large Language Model, Benjamin Azose

Defensive Publications Series

Many internet websites and online services have associated terms of service that a user needs to agree with prior to using the website. Such terms of service are often written in dense legalese and are difficult for users to read. Thus, a common behavior is for the user to accept the terms of service without reading them. This disclosure describes the use of a large language model (LLM) or other suitable text summarization technique to generate a summary of such terms of service. When a user visits a website or online service, the presence of a terms of service document …

Spatial Audio For Gesture Feedback In Augmented Reality Glasses, Kathleen Bryan

Defensive Publications Series

Spatial audio has been used in augmented reality (AR) applications, allowing developers to have a particular object emit a sound as a user gets closer to the object. Sound can also be attached to certain user inputs to provide feedback regarding different interactions. However, current AR applications do not utilize spatial sound to move the sound through space in order to provide a richer AR experience. This disclosure employs spatial audio to move sound through space to provide a richer AR experience. For example, spatial audio may be utilized to provide sounds in response to user input on the frame …

Binary Classifier Selection Based On Precision And Recall Metrics, Richa Gupta, Babu Prasad Elumalai, Vineet Jain, Vidhi Gupta, Subham Mishra, Aman Singh

Defensive Publications Series

Binary classifiers are used for bug deduplication in software development. However, the precision and recall metrics of individual classifiers may be insufficient for particular use cases. Selecting an appropriate binary classifier can improve bug deduplication, e.g., high precision can ensure that duplicate bugs are identified (and thus not analyzed), while providing sufficient recall (to eliminate redundant analysis of bugs that are duplicates). This disclosure describes automated techniques to identify the most appropriate classification model from a set of models. Two different functions - F-beta score and weighted sum score - are evaluated for different performance thresholds. The model and threshold …
