Abstract: A cyber-physical system may have a plurality of system nodes including a plurality of monitoring nodes each generating a series of current monitoring node values over time that represent current operation of the cyber-physical system. According to some embodiments, a watermarking computer platform may randomly inject a watermarking signal into an injection subset of the system nodes. The watermarking computer platform may then receive current monitoring node values over time and generate a current watermarking feature vector based on the current monitoring node values. The watermarking computer platform might comprise a dedicated watermarking abnormality detection platform or a unified abnormality detection platform (e.g., that also uses data-drive feature vectors). The injection subset may be associated with a randomly selected subset of the system nodes and/or magnitudes of watermarking signals that are randomly selected.

Abstract: A mask cushion or a mask assembly therewith provides a comfortable and effective seal for provision of a gas therapy by a respiratory treatment apparatus. The mask cushion may be integrated with or coupled to a mask frame. The mask cushion typically includes an inner cushion component. The mask cushion also includes a patient facial-contact side portion with a chamber and a barrier to form the chamber that may be flexible. The chamber may serve as an outer layer with respect to the inner cushion component. The chamber may be partially or completely filled with a gas, fluid or gel. The inner cushion may be formed with a soft flexible material such as an elastomer or foam, etc. The barrier may be a membrane and may also be soft flexible material.

Abstract: A patient interface for treating sleep disorder breathing includes a textile tube that also provides support for the seal forming structure. The textile tube includes an inner and outer layer that are joined along seams to form an air chamber or passageway. The textile tube can be pre-shaped so that the textile tube resiliently returns to a pre-determined shape prior to the introduction of pressurized air.
