As organizations continue to expand their digital footprint, new vulnerabilities are constantly emerging that can put them at risk. Among the most prominent new examples is attacks that exploit the growth of application programming interfaces (APIs), which work to connect applications and systems to facilitate the exchange of data. Along with the ease of interaction …

ONNX (Open Neural Network Exchange) is an open-source standard for representing deep learning models widely supported by many providers. ONNX provides tools for optimizing and quantizing models to reduce the memory and compute needed to run machine learning (ML) models. One of the biggest benefits of ONNX is that it provides a standardized format for …

Suppressing unintended invocation of the device because of the speech that sounds like wake-word, or accidental button presses, is critical for a good user experience, and is referred to as False-Trigger-Mitigation (FTM). In case of multiple invocation options, the traditional approach to FTM is to use invocation-specific models, or a single model for all invocations. …
Every year on June 8th, World Oceans Day provides a global platform to raise awareness about the value of our oceans and the critical need for their protection. One thing is for certain: oceans are vital to our existence. The importance of our oceans and coral reefs Oceans cover 70% of the Earth’s surface and …
