ContextBuddy: AI-Enhanced Contextual Insights for Security Alert Investigation (Applied to Intrusion Detection)
Modern Security Operations Centres (SOCs) integrate diverse tools, such as SIEM, IDS, and XDR systems, offering rich contextual data, including alert enrichments, flow features, and similar case histories. Yet, analysts must still manually determine which of these contextual cues are most relevant when validating specific alerts. We introduce ContextBuddy, an AI assistant that learns from analysts' prior investigations to help them identify the most relevant context for new alerts. Rather than …

Foram estas contas que me levaram para o twitter.
Foi o facto de ter de as deixar para tršs uma das coisas que mais me fizeram demorar a largar o twitter.
Se soubesse que iam acabar assim, provavelmente tinha batido com a porta bastante mais cedo.

Adeus, Curiosity? NASA silencia contas icónicas em grande reorganização das redes sociais
 Numa medida que está a deixar muitos entusiastas da exploração espacial nostálgicos, a NASA anunciou que vai encerrar várias das suas contas de redes sociais,

I just tried to use the US Senates system to contact my Senator (Padilla) to thank him.
But the system is overloaded.

contact: Haggle human proximity network (2006)
A network of human proximities, as measured by carried wireless devices. Each node represents a person, and an edge denotes when two people were within a certain proximity of each other, as measured by a wireless protocol (Bluetooth or Wifi). The edges are timestamped.
This network has 274 nodes and 28244 edges.

Context Pooling: Query-specific Graph Pooling for Generic Inductive Link Prediction in Knowledge Graphs
Recent investigations on the effectiveness of Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based models for link prediction in Knowledge Graphs (KGs) show that vanilla aggregation does not significantly impact the model performance. In this paper, we introduce a novel method, named Context Pooling, to enhance GNN-based models' efficacy for link predictions in KGs. To our best of knowledge, Context Pooling is the first methodology that applies graph pooling in KGs. Additionally, Context Pooling is first-of-its-ki…

In April, Chief Judge James Boasberg held there
is probable cause that administration officials
engaged in criminal contempt
by having “willfully disobeyed a binding judicial decree.”
Emil Bove is identified in the whistleblower’s documents as having played a central role in the conduct of concern.
The documents also provide evidence that Bove has seriously misled Congress about his conduct.

Whistleblower Documents Implicate Emil Bove in Criminal Contempt Order by Chief Judge Boasberg
Email released by whistleblower would presumably implicate Bove in the “contumacious conduct” identified by Chief Judge Boasberg.

Fast Estimation of Globally Optimal Independent Contact Regions for Robust Grasping and Manipulation
This work presents a fast anytime algorithm for computing globally optimal independent contact regions (ICRs). ICRs are regions such that one contact within each region enables a valid grasp. Locations of ICRs can provide guidance for grasp and manipulation planning, learning, and policy transfer. However, ICRs for modern applications have been little explored, in part due to the expense of computing them, as they have a search space exponential in the number of contacts. We present a divide an…
