Abstract: A system and process for dynamic security monitoring of test taking. The system combines historical information about the test taker or relevant conditions, and includes sensors which objectively monitor test taker's actions, inactions, and involuntary response to the test given before and during the test, and at a specific test location. The information collected from the sensors is compared to a plurality of predetermined individual risk factors, which indicate a possibility of test fraud by the individual test taker to create a test event risk profile. The individual risk profile is combined with non-individual specific risk factors to create a holistic test event security profile. Security resources are then dynamically assigned to or removed from the test event based on the unique test event security profile.

Abstract: A computing device for implementing a sensor-less method to improve exercise performance is described. An engine of the computing device receives, from a camera of the computing device, video exercise data associated with a user performing an active exercise and then converts the video via a deep learning algorithm to one or more movements of a user's skeleton in real-time performing the active exercise. A first movement of the one or more movements is compared to a predictive model associated with an ideal performance of the first movement. A confidence score is assigned to the comparison. Feedback data is transmitted to a graphical user interface of the computing device for display to the user, where the feedback data includes the confidence score and instructions on how the user can improve the first movement to raise the confidence score.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for non-linear breathing entrainment. As described herein, “breathing entrainment” refers to guiding a user's breath or breathing. According to an aspect, an initial breathing period and a final breathing period are selected. Based on the initial and final breathing periods, a non-linear breath rate per minute sequence is determined. A guiding stimulus is output and aligned with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence. The guiding stimulus is non-linearly altered with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence to align with the final breathing period over an interval of time. The non-linear alterations of the guiding stimulus vary based on an amount of time the guiding stimulus has been output.

Abstract: Identifying material with which students are struggling can guide educators' decisions on which modifications to the instructional experience will be most impactful to the learning experience. Educators make a finite selection of the nearly infinite number of possible combinations of instructional content, delivery approaches, instructional order, test questions, approaches for accountability, rubrics, and the like. Educators and administrators with thousands of students are incapable of processing the quantities of available data unaided. In some embodiments, a system enables users to view quantized metric data from a population of, for example, students. In some embodiments, the system displays a category-filtered presentation table of a single metric data source.

Abstract: A method of training a trainee includes a sensor configured to measure at least one biological indicator of stress in the trainee. The method includes presenting a training segment in the simulation while monitoring inputs from the trainee. Data is read from the sensor and an instantaneous stress level of the trainee is calculated from the data. If the instantaneous stress level greater than a predetermined value, a stress-change feature is selected that will reduce stress and applying the stress-change feature to the training segment, thereby reducing complexity of the training segment for reducing the instantaneous stress of the trainee. for example, the stress-change feature is changing the weather, adding/removing bad drivers, adding/removing pedestrians, etc.
