Abstract: The present disclosure uses physiological data, ECG signals as an example, to evaluate cardiac structure and function in mammals. Two approaches are presented, e.g., a model-based analysis and a space-time analysis. The first method uses a modified Matching Pursuit (MMP) algorithm to find a noiseless model of the ECG data that is sparse and does not assume periodicity of the signal. After the model is derived, various metrics and subspaces are extracted to image and characterize cardiovascular tissues using complex-sub-harmonic-frequencies (CSF) quasi-periodic and other mathematical methods. In the second method, space-time domain is divided into a number of regions, the density of the ECG signal is computed in each region and inputted into a learning algorithm to image and characterize the tissues.

Abstract: A light based method and technique for measuring the static and average plasma glucose concentration over a prolonged period of time. More specifically, the disclosure relates to a method that utilizes mathematical analysis of appendage mobile LED flash IR light transmittance, absorption and scattering by using high resolution mobile camera data to estimate the concentration of glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in millimoles per liter (mmol/L).

Abstract: Methods and systems for evaluating the electrical activity of the heart to identify novel ECG patterns closely linked to the subsequent development of serious heart rhythm disturbances and fatal cardiac events. Two approaches are describe, for example a model-based analysis and space-time analysis, which are used to study the dynamical and geometrical properties of the ECG data. In the first a model is derived using a modified Matching Pursuit (MMP) algorithm. Various metrics and subspaces are extracted to characterize the risk for serious heart rhythm disturbances, sudden cardiac death, other modes of death, and all-cause mortality linked to different electrical abnormalities of the heart. In the second method, space-time domain is divided into a number of regions (e.g., 12 regions), the density of the ECG signal is computed in each region and input to a learning algorithm to associate them with these events.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and method of a noninvasive electrocardiographic (ECG) technique for characterizing cardiac chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. A mathematical analysis of three-dimensional (3D) high resolution ECG data may be used to estimate chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. For example, high-resolution mammalian ECG signals are analyzed across multiple leads, as 3D orthogonal (X,Y,Z) or 10-channel data for 30 to 1400 seconds to derive estimates of cardiac chamber size and cardiac mechanical function. Multiple mathematical approaches may be used to analyze the dynamical and geometrical properties of the ECG data.

Abstract: A method of evaluating an electrophysiological signal is disclosed. A mathematical reconstruction over at least one cycle of the electrophysiological signal is used to identify an abnormal substrate. A non-transitory computer readable medium is also disclosed. The nontransitory computer readable medium has stored thereon instructions for identifying a pathological substrate from a mathematical reconstruction of an electrophysiological signal, which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform steps comprising using a mathematical reconstruction over many cycles of the electrophysiological signal to identify a pathological state. A system for evaluating an electrophysiological signal includes a processor configured to identify a pathological condition from a mathematical reconstruction of the electrophysiological signal. The system also includes a data input coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with the electrophysiological signal.
