Pajamas and blanket having releasably attached 3-d illuminated stuffed animals are described.

A method is described. Recorded data capable of being consciously experienced by a user through a sensory form is represented as an indexed digital sequence and maintaining the indexed digital sequence in a storage device. The data is provided to the user via an output device capable of reproducing the data in the sensory form while the user is monitored with a monitor device for a point at which a non-conscious stimuli, as evoked by the user in reaction to the providing of the data, is captured. The stimuli as captured by the monitor device is paired using a processing device with a portion of the data corresponding to the point at which the stimuli was evoked and the data in the storage is reorganized with the processing device as categorized by the stimuli. The output device is configured to efficiently provide the reorganized data as personalized to the user.

A system is described. A computing processor is configured to: represent recorded data capable of being consciously experienced by a user through a sensory form as an indexed sequence and maintain the indexed sequence; provide the recorded data to the user in the sensory form while the user is being monitored for a plurality of points in the indexed sequence at which electrical neural signals as evoked by the user in reaction to the providing of the recorded data, are captured; pair the signals with portions of the recorded data corresponding to the plurality of points at which the signals were evoked and reorganize the recorded data as categorized by the signals; measure and analyze the signals to identify one or more physiologic responses that fall below the levels of self-awareness and cognitive awareness; and inform the user of the one or more physiologic responses.

X-Squared is a unique mathematical card deck and methods for using the deck to play games. This invention fills a large gap in the market for educational games by including physical cards for operands as well as exponents and parentheses. No card game in the public domain contains all of the elements of the Order of Operations (aka PEMDAS). X-Squared does include all of the requisite operators: Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction. The card deck has utility for both educational and entertainment purposes. By playing variations of the game as specified, students will gain a richer understanding of mathematical operations. For the general public, the variety of games that may be played (including poker) will bring much enjoyment to those who engage with the X-Squared Card Deck.

A mathematical learning game that facilitates engagement through playing cards that define the target mathematical equations that opposing teams attempt to solve first to win battles against each other. The mathematical equations interplay with the results of rolled dice, wherein these rolled results provide the operand of the mathematical equations. The playing cards also provide a character narrative and/or a set of actions or rules that enhances and/or defines the rewards of correctly solving the mathematical equation first.

A language proficiency analyzer automatically evaluates a person's language proficiency by analyzing that person's oral communications with another person. The analyzer first enhances the quality of an audio recording of a conversation between the two people using a neural network that automatically detects loss features in the audio and adds those loss features back into the audio. The analyzer then performs a textual and audio analysis on the improved audio. Through textual analysis, the analyzer uses a multi-attention network to determine how focused one person is on the other and how pleased one person is with the other. Through audio analysis, the analyzer uses a neural network to determine how well one person pronounced words during the conversation.
