Our approach to time series anomaly detection is computationally efficient, automatically learns how to update probabilities and adapt to changes in data. As we describe in the next section, this approach has yielded successful attack detection at high precision. The proposed time series anomaly detection model was deployed and utilized by Microsoft Threat Experts to detect RDP brute force attacks during threat hunting activities. A list that ranks machines across enterprises with the lowest anomaly scores (indicating the likelihood of observing a value at least as large under expected conditions in all signals considered) is updated and reviewed every day. See Table 1 for an example.

The field of law has evolved surprisingly little since the days of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. ... [ ] (1841-1935), considered by many to be the greatest U.S. Supreme Court justice in history. Virtually everything that companies do--sales, purchases, partnerships, mergers, reorganizations--they do via legally enforceable contracts. Innovation would grind to a halt without a well-developed body of intellectual property law. Day to day, whether we recognize it or not, each of us operates against the backdrop of our legal regime and the implicit possibility of litigation. At close to $1T globally, the legal services market is one of the largest in the world.

As a recent CIO article observed, artificial intelligence has been "the next big thing" for a long time now. It has promised to relieve us of many mundane, day-to-day tasks while simultaneously helping us achieve feats of science and engineering we can barely imagine. There have also been the more dystopian visions of AI displacing wide swaths of the human workforce, leading to millions of people whose jobs are taken over by the AI-powered machines. While neither of these visions is likely for a long time to come, there are practical applications of AI that are coming of age. So how will organizations use artificial intelligence and machine learning to transform themselves and become more competitive?

NVIDIA today introduced groundbreaking inference software that developers everywhere can use to deliver conversational AI applications, slashing inference latency that until now has impeded true, interactive engagement. NVIDIA TensorRT 7 -- the seventh generation of the company's inference software development kit -- opens the door to smarter human-to-AI interactions, enabling real-time engagement with applications such as voice agents, chatbots and recommendation engines. It is estimated that there are 3.25 billion digital voice assistants being used in devices around the world, according to Juniper Research. By 2023, that number is expected to reach 8 billion, more than the world's total population. TensorRT 7 features a new deep learning compiler designed to automatically optimize and accelerate the increasingly complex recurrent and transformer-based neural networks needed for AI speech applications.

Google-owned DeepMind is to collaborate with a UK hospital to help doctors spot more than 50 different eye diseases using AI. When it isn't creating artificial intelligence (AI) capable of destroying human opponents in a game of Go, Google-owned DeepMind is trying to build other systems that could transform healthcare, among other things. Now, the UK-based company has revealed a joint research partnership with Moorfields Eye Hospital that could help spot sight-threatening eye diseases much quicker than before. Publishing its findings in Nature Medicine, the company said that its latest AI can quickly run through eye scans taken from routine clinical practice and identify more than 50 serious diseases as accurately as world-leading expert doctors. Under existing systems, ophthalmologists use 3D images called optical coherence tomography (OCT) to create a detailed map of a person's eye.

Paige, a NYC-based leader in computational pathology transforming the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, today announced it has closed its Series B funding round of $45 million, bringing the Company's total capital raised to over $70 million. Healthcare Venture Partners brought the largest contribution to the round, with Breyer Capital, Kenan Turnacioglu, and other funds participating. Paige will use this new capital to drive FDA clearance of its products and expand its portfolio, delving deeper into cancer pathology, novel biomarkers, and prognostic capabilities. Additionally, the Company will accelerate commercial efforts in the U.S. and expansion in Europe, Brazil, and Canada. Pathology is the cornerstone of cancer diagnoses.

Intel is pushing for Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS), a mathematical model for autonomous-vehicle safety conceived by Mobileye (now an Intel company), to become an IEEE standard. The company is spearheading a new working group, IEEE P2846, to pursue "A Formal Model for Safety Considerations in Automated Vehicle Decision Making." The group's first meeting is scheduled for late January in San Jose, Calif. More specifically, the working group seeks to enable industry and government to "align on a common definition of what it means for an automated vehicle to drive safely balancing safety and practicability." Intel sees the initiative as a way to encourage autonomous-vehicle industry to ask -- and grapple with answering -- the hardest question of all in the AV era: How safe is safe enough?

Like electricity or the internet, artificial intelligence (AI) is considered a general purpose technology with the potential to transform productivity, accelerate economic growth and improve wellbeing across the whole of society. It has started, and will continue to, drastically transform the way we work and live. At least, this is what the report'Towards Our Intelligent Future' published by New Zealand AI Forum earlier this year affirms. The report represents over nine months of collaborative work on parallel streams exploring AI adoption, policy and strategy in New Zealand and around the world. It highlights the value of AI for achieving New Zealand's wellbeing, sustainability and economic goals.

The bookstore manager looked at me and said that the computer program that I had developed to analyze the books database was going to run "perpetually" and he was quite steamed about how long it was taking to execute. Well, hold on, let's start this story at the beginning so you'll have some context about what was happening. Back in my college days, I was a gun-for-hire in terms of a willingness to whip together off-the-cuff computer programs for anyone that needed a quick-and-dirty programmable task done, doing so to earn a few extra bucks for those large pepperoni pizzas and kegs of beer that I kept ordering with my classmates. The college bookstore manager had asked me to craft a program that would generate some reports for him. Without taking much time to analyze the situation (that's when I was young and headstrong), I wrote a brute force algorithm that would sort the voluminous data and produce the reports. On a Monday morning, I launched the program and let it fly. In that era, the amount of data involved was considered rather large since it was data for all 30,000 students and included their classes, the books required for their classes, etc. When the bookstore manager asked me how long it would take for the program to run, I hedged and said it would take about a day.
