Example systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for using data collected from the responses of an individual with the computerized tasks of a cognitive platform to derive performance metrics as an indicator of cognitive abilities, and applying predictive models to generate an indication of neurodegenerative condition. The example systems, methods, and apparatus also can be configured to adapt the computerized tasks to enhance the individual's cognitive abilities, and for using data collected from the responses of an individual with the adapted computerized tasks to derive performance metrics and applying predictive models to generate the indication of neurodegenerative condition.

A method for suppressing sensor noise in a spatially oversampled sensor array includes receiving spatially oversampled multi-channel sensor data from a region of interest and building a spatial model from the data for essential spatial degrees of freedom. The method further includes decomposing the data into the underlying spatial model to obtain associated amplitude components containing a mixture of original temporal waveforms of the data and, for each channel of the multi-channel sensor, estimating time-domain amplitude components using cross-validation. Next, for each channel, based on the estimated time-domain amplitude components, sensor noise and/or artifacts for that channel are identified. Finally, for each channel, the identified sensor noise and/or artifacts can be suppressed from the data.

This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for managing pain of a subject. A system includes one or more physiological sensors configured to sense a physiological signal indicative of patient brain activity. The physiological signals may include an electroencephalography signal, a magnetoencephalography signal, or a brain-evoked potential. The system may extract from the brain activity signal one or more signal metrics indicative of strength or pattern of brain electromagnetic activity associated with pain, and generate a pain score using the one or more signal metrics. The pain score can be output to a patient or a process. The system may select an electrode configuration for pain-relief electrostimulation based on the pain score, and deliver a closed-loop pain therapy according to the selected electrode configuration.

A system and a method for spatial positioning of magnetometers. Said system includes: magnetometers, a magnetometer support, first positioning markers, a photogrammetry system, and a controller. The first positioning markers are a non-rotationally-symmetrical pattern. The photogrammetry system includes photographing devices configured to photograph, at at least two of a plurality of photographing sites, first image data of the first positioning markers by means of one or more photographing devices. The controller is configured to receive data of the first image photographed by the photographing devices, calculate spatial positions of the first positioning markers on the basis of pre-obtained system parameters and the first image data, and then calculate spatial positions and spatial orientations of the magnetometers.
