Patents by Inventor Partha Mitra

Partha Mitra has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6952687
    Abstract: A prosthetic system may use a decoder to predict an intended action, such as a reach, from processed signals generated from measured neural activity. The decoder may included a cognitive state machine, which transitions between cognitive states based on transition rules.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 10, 2002
    Date of Patent: October 4, 2005
    Assignee: California Institute of Technology
    Inventors: Richard A. Andersen, Bijan Pesaran, Partha Mitra, Daniella Meeker, Krishna V. Shenoy, Shiyan Cao, Joel W. Burdick
  • Patent number: 6920351
    Abstract: In an embodiment, neural activity of a subject may be measured with an implant in the sensory motor cortex of the subject and used to predict an intended movement. The measured neural activity may be the local field potential (LFP) at an electrode or single unit (SU) activity. The spectral structure of the LFP and the SU activity may be estimated using spectral analysis techniques. The estimated LFP and SU responses may be used to predict and intended movement by the subject.
