The present invention is directed to a system, method and computer program for automatically extracting and mining relations and related entities from unstructured text. A method in accordance with an embodiment of the invention includes: extracting relations and related entities from unstructured text data, representing the extracted information into a graph, and manipulating the resulting graph to gain more insight into the information it contains. The extraction of relations and related entities is performed first by automatically inducting pattern and second by applying these induced patterns to unstructured text data. For each relation and entity, several features are extracted in order to build a graph whose nodes are entities and edges are relations.

A network security monitoring and correlation system for providing a three-dimensional visualization of network traffic overlaid with security alerts and other relevant discrete data. The system may comprise an application server communicably linked to a client. The server functions to retrieve network traffic metadata and relevant discrete data associated with individual computer hosts and connections in the monitored network, process the network traffic data by building a graph data structure, and then embedding within the graph data structure one or more layers of additional information about the individual computer hosts and connections derived from the discrete data. The client functions to produce a three-dimensional visualization of the network environment by parsing the graph data structure received from the server and then spawning computer hosts and connections in the 3-D environment. The client will then add the overlay information to the appropriate hosts or connections, with the overlay information preferably being represented within the 3-D environment as a particular color, shape, size, position, or a changing dynamic value.

A platform and method for optimization of manufacturing efficiency by utilizing a service box to provide data obtained from sensors on production machines in order to perform tool condition monitoring and health assessment and predict power consumption trends. The sensor data is continuously monitored and analyzed. When power usage increases and vibration increases to a predetermined level the tool has become dull or worn to the point that the tool needs to be changed. The service box is coupled to sensors on a production machine. The service box receives appropriate data from the sensors and transfers the data to a cloud server in real-time. When it is determined that the tool needs to be replaced, notification is made and personnel replace the worn tool with a sharp tool.

The present invention provides an apparatus for determining a wavelength of an optical signal by determining a coarse wavelength response and a fine wavelength response. The coarse wavelength response is achieved by utilizing an optical filter. A suitable detector detects the wavelength-dependent response and conveys the determined coarse wavelength response to the processing logic. The fine wavelength response is achieved by utilizing an interferometer that is capable of generating an interference pattern. Two detectors are disposed in the interference pattern at a quadrature separation from each other and detect the intensity responses at their respective locations. The intensity responses are conveyed to a unit that determines the fine wavelength response. Finally, the processing logic determines the wavelength utilizing the determined coarse wavelength response and the determined fine wavelength response.

At least one specified position and, if necessary, a cutting surface are specified in a three-dimensional medical image. Plural anatomical structures present within a predetermined range from the specified position are extracted, as structures to be separated, by referring to a structure information storage unit that stores plural anatomical structures and a separation condition storage unit that stores a separation condition for each anatomical structure of a subject to determine, based on the specified position, a boundary surface and, if necessary, a cutting surface for separately displaying the plural anatomical structures. The boundary surface corresponding to the structures to be separated and the specified position and, if necessary, the cutting surface are set based on the separation condition. A three-dimensional medical image in which the structures to be separated are separated by the boundary surface and, if necessary, by the cutting surface is generated, and displayed.

The present invention provides an L-shaped golf training mat for improving a golfer's aiming and alignment skills. The mat comprises positioning-aiming markings, which markings are longitudinally and latitudinally aligned on the superior mat surface for enabling the golfer to visualize an effective ball-placement-zone distally removed from the L-shaped mat and defined by distally extending and laterally extending zone lines collinear with the positioning-aiming markings. Further, the present invention provides an auxiliary alignment blade removably attachable to the mat for enabling the golfer to align and aim golf shots for variably controlled golf ball flight trajectories. The blade comprises reference markings which function in cooperative association with positioning-aiming markings on the superior mat surface for enabling a golfer to align and aim for variably controlled golf ball flight trajectories.
