Sensing and operation of devices in viscous flow using derived parameters to reduce data-handling requirements
Devices, including robotic devices, operating in viscous fluid flow can use passive sensor data collected to represent fluid parameters at an instant in time to derive information about the flow, the motion and position of the device, and parameters of the physical system constraining the flow. Using quasi-static analysis techniques, and appropriate feature selection for machine learning, very accurate determinations can be made, generally in real time, with very modest computational requirements. These determinations can then be used to map systems, navigate devices through a system, or otherwise control the actions of, e.g., robotic devices for clean-up, leak detection, or other functions.
SLEEP STAGING USING MACHINE LEARNING
Embodiments are disclosed for sleep staging using machine learning. In an embodiment, a method comprises: receiving, with at least one processor, sensor signals from a sensor, the sensor signals including at least motion signals and respiratory signals of a user; extracting, with the at least one processor, features from the sensor signals; predicting, with a machine learning classifier, that the user is asleep or awake based on the features; and computing, with the at least one processor, a sleep or wake metric based on whether the user is predicted to be asleep or awake.
Signal processing to compute 3D spatial EEG map from 2D EEG data
A method of deriving depth EEG data from non-invasive 2D EEG data is described. The method receives several EEG scalp signals, each of which is produced by a contact of an EEG recording device. The method converts each EEG scalp signal into multiple frequency band signals. The method identifies a set of contacts that have similar signal fragments in frequency band signals for a particular frequency band. The method determines relative time delay in frequency band signal arrival at the set of contacts. The method determines relative radius of sphere for the set of contacts based on the relative time delay in frequency band signal arrival at the set of contacts. The method then determines a signal source location by performing trilateration on the set of contacts using locations of the set of contacts and the relative radius of sphere for the set of contacts.
METHOD FOR REMOVING RANDOM NOISE OF RADAR COLLECTION SIGNAL IN BIOMETRIC SIGNAL MEASUREMENT RADAR, AND APPARATUS FOR SAME
The present invention relates to a method of effectively removing various vibration noises using microwave Doppler radar, and an apparatus therefor. The method comprises the steps of: (a) generating and transmitting an oscillation frequency to a dynamic target, and receiving a signal reflected from the dynamic target and various signals generated around the dynamic target; (b) generating a Doppler IF signal from each of n received signals; (c) converting each Doppler IF signal into digital data; (d) configuring digital signals into a data set, and converting the data set into a frequency component symbol set; (e) calculating a value by adding index symbols and dividing by n reception antennas; and (f) classifying deviation between spectrum components of a commonly-generated periodic signal and an uncommon aperiodic signal, and obtaining only a periodic signal through filtering. The present invention can improve accuracy of sensing a biometric signal.

In some examples, a medical device system includes an electrode. The medical device system may include impedance measurement circuitry coupled to the electrode, the impedance measurement circuitry may be configured to generate an impedance signal indicating impedance proximate to the electrode. The medical device system may include processing circuitry that may be configured to identify a first component of the impedance signal. The first component of the impedance signal may be correlated to a cardiac event. The processing circuitry may be configured to determine that the cardiac event occurred based on the identification of the first component of the impedance signal.

Systems and methods for replacing signal artifacts in a glucose sensor data stream
Systems and methods for minimizing or eliminating transient non-glucose related signal noise due to non-glucose rate limiting phenomenon such as ischemia, pH changes, temperatures changes, and the like. The system monitors a data stream from a glucose sensor and detects signal artifacts that have higher amplitude than electronic or diffusion-related system noise. The system replaces some or the entire data stream continually or intermittently including signal estimation methods that particularly address transient signal artifacts. The system is also capable of detecting the severity of the signal artifacts and selectively applying one or more signal estimation algorithm factors responsive to the severity of the signal artifacts, which includes selectively applying distinct sets of parameters to a signal estimation algorithm or selectively applying distinct signal estimation algorithms.
