Abstract: Provided herein are protective masks made with polymer-based materials and methods of forming the materials. Methods of forming the interlaced polymer-based materials comprise applying adhesive to a substrate, electrospinning a first polymer solution onto the substrate from a first group of spinning electrodes, electrospinning a second polymer solution onto the substrate from a second group of spinning electrodes, and applying hot air to dry the polymer-based materials electrospun from the first polymer solution and the second polymer solution to form the interlaced polymer-based materials.

Abstract: A game server is configured to implement a multiplayer online computer-implemented game that provides an inflationary economy system which allows for growth in a player's in-game virtual currency with an increase in game level or experience, while attenuating the in-game purchasing power by concomitantly inflating virtual currency value of predefined inflationary features. The inflationary features include rewards or winnings available by the player pursuant to gameplay success. Players at different inflationary levels can compete in-game for a common reward or jackpot, but a virtual currency value of the reward is denominated differently at different inflation levels.

Abstract: A synthetic world interface may be used to model digital environments, sensors, and motions for the evaluation, development, and improvement of computer vision and speech algorithms. A synthetic data cloud service with a library of sensor primitives, motion generators, and environments with procedural and game-like capabilities, facilitates engineering design for a manufactural solution that has computer vision and speech capabilities. In some embodiments, a sensor platform simulator operates with a motion orchestrator, an environment orchestrator, an experiment generator, and an experiment runner to test various candidate hardware configurations and computer vision and speech algorithms in a virtual environment, advantageously speeding development and reducing cost. Thus, examples disclosed herein may relate to virtual reality (VR) or mixed reality (MR) implementations.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system for implementing a logistic regression classification mechanism to measure and assess a depth of anesthesia of an animal subject based on electroencephalography (EEG), which includes a signal pre-processor, an epoch generator, a feature extractor, a classifier, and a predictor. Related method of how to pre-process the raw data of EEG signal, epoch generation thereof, feature extraction from each epoch, classification based on extracted features, and prediction of different states of the animal subject based on a prediction decision mechanism is also provided. Classification accuracy of the present invention for 1-second and 10% overlapping epochs is about 94% with an average total system delay of about 12 ?s and low on-chip power consumption. The present system is entirely optimized, which leads to a 100% accurate channel prediction after a 7-second run-time on average.
