A method of operating a radar sensor system that is configured to determine range and velocity information from radar waves reflected by a scene in an interior of a vehicle for vital sign detection. The method includes steps to decompose reflected and received signals into range and velocity information, to measure the movement over time in specified range gates and to evaluate the similarities between them. Based on the characteristics of similar behaving range bins, it can be decided whether any detected movement is related to an internal or external disturbance or by vital signs.

A wireless, patient-worn, physiological sensor configured to, among other things, help manage a patient that is at risk of forming one or more pressure ulcers is disclosed. According to an embodiment, the sensor includes a base having a top surface and a bottom surface. The sensor also includes a substrate layer including conductive tracks and connection pads, a top side, and a bottom side, where the bottom side of the substrate layer is disposed above the top side of the base. Mounted on the substrate layer are a processor, a data storage device, a wireless transceiver, an accelerometer, and a battery. In use, the sensor senses a patient's motion and wirelessly transmits information indicative of the sensed motion to, for example, a patient monitor. The patient monitor receives, stores, and processes the transmitted information.

Methods and systems for determining a plurality of sequences of nucleic acid (e.g., DNA) molecules in a sequencing-by-synthesis process are provided. In one embodiment, the method comprises obtaining images of fluorescent signals obtained in a plurality of synthesis cycles. The images of fluorescent signals are associated with a plurality of different fluorescence channels. The method further comprises preprocessing the images of fluorescent signals to obtain processed images. Based on a set of the processed images, the method further comprises detecting center positions of clusters of the fluorescent signals using a trained convolutional neural network (CNN) and extracting, based on the center positions of the clusters of fluorescent signals, features from the set of the processed images to generate feature embedding vectors. The method further comprises determining, in parallel, the plurality of sequences of DNA molecules using the extracted features based on a trained attention-based neural network.

Techniques are provided for performing radio frequency (RF) sensing to determine the viewing status of a television user. This can be used to determine user behavior during the playback of content (e.g., whether a user is watching the content), which can be used as a data point for determining the user's level of interest in the content. Using the status of the television user, embodiments can provide additional or alternative functionality, such as powering down and/or powering up the television. Furthermore, RF sensing may be performed by existing television hardware, such a Wi-Fi transceiver, and may therefore provide RF sensing functionality to a television with little or no added cost.
