In an approach to quarantining source code to prevent confidential information exposure, one or more computer processors store a pushed codebase associated with a user to an isolated quarantine area, wherein access to the quarantine area is restricted to the user through user interface code visibility enforcement and protocol code visibility enforcement. The one or more computer processors dynamically adjust a timeout period based on codebase complexity, user preferences, associated dependencies, codebase size, minimum execution temporal period for one or more scans, and system specifications. The one or more computer processors responsive to identifying one or more instances of confidential information, perform one or more remedial actions.

Disclosed are techniques for quantifying body postures of a player employing a loop drive technique to strike a ball, such as performed in table tennis activities. A video recording of a player striking a ball with a loop drive technique is received and divided, using image processing techniques, into two segments: the first concerning player body postures before the ball is hit, and the second concerning body postures from the moment of impact between the ball and racket and the subsequent follow-through body postures. Then, image processing techniques are again leveraged to isolate and quantify specific body postures contributing to a loop drive technique in a given segment.

Capturing and quantifying body postures

Updating a profile includes monitoring electronic communications between a target user and a number of other users in real-time, extracting communicated information available about the target user and the number of other users from the electronic communications, based on an analysis of the communicated information available about the target user and the number of other users identifying relevant information from the communicated information that is relevant for updating the profile of the target user on at least one social network, and updating the profile of the target user on the at least one social network using the relevant information derived from the analysis.

Embodiments generally relate to detection of anomalies in driving. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving first vehicle data during operation of a vehicle, wherein the first vehicle data is associated with a plurality of vehicle parameters. The method further includes determining a first signature based on the first vehicle data, wherein the first signature indicates first driving behavior. The method further includes receiving second vehicle data during operation of the vehicle, wherein the second vehicle data is associated with the plurality of vehicle parameters. The method further includes determining a second signature based on the second vehicle data, wherein the second signature indicates second driving behavior. The method further includes performing one or more remediating actions based on the second signature.

Cognitive modeling for anomalies detection in driving

Provided are techniques for monitoring a moving vessel using a detachable drone coupled to the moving vessel. An event is identified that triggers detachment of the detachable drone from the moving vessel. The detachable drone is detached from the moving vessel. The detachable drone is moved to a predetermined location. A beacon based on beacon data is transmitted from the detachable drone. In response to the detachable drone receiving a request for the data, data collected from monitoring the moving vessel is delivered.

A mechanism is provided in a data processing system to implement a chat topic identification system for identifying chat topics in a multi-user messaging platform. The chat topic identification system receives a plurality of chat messages submitted to a communication channel in the multi-user messaging platform, performs cognitive content language analysis, cognitive personality analysis, cognitive tone analysis, social data analysis, and conversation feature analysis. The chat topic identification system stores results in a user profile associated with the user to form a user profile. A new conversation prediction engine determines a conversation separation score representing a likelihood that a new conversation is being started in the communication channel. A new conversation separation recommendation engine generates a conversation separation recommendation based on the conversation separation score.

Updating a profile includes monitoring electronic communications between a target user and a number of other users in real-time, extracting communicated information available about the target user and the number of other users from the electronic communications, based on an analysis of the communicated information available about the target user and the number of other users identifying relevant information from the communicated information that is relevant for updating the profile of the target user on at least one social network, and updating the profile of the target user on the at least one social network using the relevant information derived from the analysis. In an embodiment, a number of prompts are presented to the target user to allow the target user to validate the relevant information before updating the profile.

Controlling release of earthquake energy, in one aspect, may include a controller device injecting fluid into bore holes at dynamically regulated levels to cause controlled seismic events. The bore holes are placed along a fault line with a potential for hazardous earthquakes, and installed with sensors and fluid flow controls communicating with the controller device. The seismic events caused by injecting the fluid are monitored via the sensors. Based on the monitoring, the injecting of the fluid to one or more of the bore holes may be regulated dynamically to control the sizes of the seismic events along the fault line.

Controlled fluid injection to reduce potential seismic energy along fault lines

A method, a computer program product, and an information handling system is provided for controlling a device sensitivity based on a change of movement of the device. A device movement with a device sensitivity controlled by a user movement is monitored for a change in rate of movement or direction. The sensitivity of the device is controlled based on the change.
