  • Patent number: 10478111
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method can include a speech collection module collecting a speech pattern from a patient, a speech feature computation module computing at least one speech feature from the collected speech pattern, a mental health determination module determining a state-of-mind of the patient based at least in part on the at least one computed speech feature, and an output module providing an indication of a diagnosis with regard to a possibility that the patient is suffering from a certain condition such as depression or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

  • Publication number: 20190210591
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to enhance the driving performance of a leanable vehicle such as a motorcycle. The system includes a leanable vehicle interface to receive input from a driver (e.g., a human or a robotic driver) and a sensor interface to receive inputs from sensors on the leanable vehicle. The system also includes a computing module to use the sensor data in combination with data from the leanable vehicle interface to calculate the driver behavior to produce a future desired performance, based on a specified aggressiveness, so that the performance of the leanable vehicle is optimized. The calculation may be done using a machine learning method, a rule based method, or both.
