Monitoring device
A monitoring device suitable for attachment to a surface of a subject, the device having a data collector and a processor. The data collector includes a flexible foil attached to a less flexible socket, where the foil forms a dermal side surface of the data collector for adhesion to a skin surface of a subject to be monitored. To enable communication of electrical signals between the data collector and the processor, the data collector includes a distribution structure formed as a pattern of an electrically conductive material on an outer surface of a foldable sheet. The foldable sheet forms a layer in the flexible foil and having an interface portion which is folded into an aperture in the socket to form a coupling inside the cavity for electrical communication with a matching coupling of the processor when the processor is received in the cavity.

An electronic device comprising: a sensor; a memory; and a first processor, wherein the first processor is configured to: receive first data of a user of the electronic device sensed at preconfigured intervals via the sensor; identify second data comprising location information of the user or information input by the user; compare the first data and the second data with threshold values pre-stored in the memory to generate a result; detect a current health state of the user based on the result; output recommended guide information based on the detected current health state; and re-detect the current health state of the user based on changed first data received at the preconfigured intervals and the second data.
Magnetic Stimulation With Variable Pulsed Intervals
A method of modulating a brain activity of a mammal is achieved by subjecting the mammal to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with an rTMS apparatus at variable pulse intervals for a time sufficient to modulate said brain activity. Improvement in a physiological condition or a clinical condition is achieved. Conditions to be treated include but are not limited to PTSD, autism spectrum disorder and Alzheimer's disease. Wavelet transform analysis is used to determine the variable pulse intervals employed.

BRAIN DISEASE DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, BRAIN DISEASE DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANCE METHOD, AND PROGRAM
A brain disease diagnosis assistance system acquires a plurality of learning data items, each including brain wave feature data including feature amounts of brain waves extracted from the brain waves and disease information attached to the brain wave feature data, the disease information indicating a state of a brain disease corresponding to the brain wave feature data and classifies the plurality of acquired learning data into a plurality of clusters. A classifier for classifying learning data into portions corresponding respectively to types of disease information is generated based on disease information attached to learning data in each classified cluster. Then, brain wave feature data of a subject is acquired and a cluster to which the brain wave feature data is classified is specified and one of a plurality of brain diseases, which corresponds to the brain wave feature data of the subject, is determined through the generated classifier.
