Abstract: Exemplified method and system facilitates monitoring and/or evaluation of disease or physiological state using mathematical analysis and machine learning analysis of a biopotential signal collected from a single electrode. The exemplified method and system creates, from data of a singularly measured biopotential signal, via a mathematical operation (i.e., via numeric fractional derivative calculation of the signal in the frequency domain), one or more mathematically-derived biopotential signals (e.g., virtual biopotential signals) that is used in combination with the measured biopotential signals to generate a multi-dimensional phase-space representation of the body (e.g., the heart). By mathematically modulating (e.g.

Abstract: A mountable electrical socket apparatus comprises a socket assembly mounted in a base housing. The socket assembly, defined as a rectangular body having an electrical socket on a first side, an input wiring insert on second side, and an output wiring insert on a third side, is mounted in the base housing with a pair of mounting brackets. The base housing is circular basin which is configured to receive up to two discrete sets of electrical wires to be connected to the socket assembly. An input wire, from the electrical system of the building in which the mountable electrical socket apparatus is disposed or from another mountable electrical socket apparatus provides electrical power to the socket assembly generally and to the electrical socket. An output wire may be utilized to transmit electrical power which has been provided to one mountable electrical socket apparatus to another.

Abstract: Methods to identify and risk stratify disease states, cardiac structural defects, functional cardiac deficiencies induced by teratogens and other toxic agents, pathological substrates, conduction delays and defects, and ejection fraction using single channel biological data obtained from the subject. A modified Matching Pursuit (MP) algorithm may be used to find a noiseless model of the data that is sparse and does not assume periodicity of the signal. After the model is derived, various metrics and subspaces are extracted to characterize the cardiac system. In another method, space-time domain is divided into a number of regions (which is largely determined by the signal length), the density of the signal is computed in each region and input to a learning algorithm to associate them to the desired cardiac dysfunction indicator target.

Abstract: Methods and systems for utilizing a gaming instrument controller are described. In one embodiment, a musical interaction recording of a song may be accessed. The musical interaction recording may include a backing audible portion of the song and a user reproduction indication associated with the song. The user reproduction indication may be presented in synchronization with the song. A plurality of musical note selections may be received from a gaming instrument controller based on the presenting of the user reproduction indication. A plurality of musical notes for the song may be generated based on the receiving of the plurality of musical note selections. The backing audible portion and the plurality of musical notes may be reproduced.

Abstract: Apparatus for connecting and disconnecting a computer or other device to the Internet includes switching means which has an input and output. The switching means is operative in a first mode to connect the input to the output and in a second mode to disconnect the input from the output. The network output from the computer is coupled to the input of the switching means with the output of the switching means coupled to the network. There are means coupled to the switching means to operate the switching means in either said first or second mode. The switching means utilizes first and second switches each of which are momentary switches. The first switch is associated with a one-shot which triggers the switching means in the first mode while the second switch is associated with a flip-flop which operates the switching means in the second mode.

Abstract: A door closure mechanism is described including a base and a resilient element wherein the base includes surfaces which converge toward each other and wherein the resilient element, such as a torque rod, engages the converging surfaces so that the torque rod is more securely held in the base.
