Abstract: A method of regulating body temperature that involves (i) determining, via processing circuitry, if sensor data from a plurality of sensors is in a predetermined normal range, (ii) converting the sensor data to fuzzy values when the sensor data is not in the predetermined normal range, (iii) combining one or more related consequents of the predetermined fuzzy rules, (iv) evaluating the combined consequents to determine a centroid value using a centroid method; and (v) transmitting the centroid value to a thermal management system to activate the thermal management system to a predetermined activation level based on the centroid value, wherein the plurality of sensors include a core temperature sensor, a skin temperature sensor, a skin blood flow sensor, a cardiac output sensor, a neuromuscular activity output sensor, an electromyography sensor, a vibration sensor, and an imaging device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detection, grading, scoring and tele-screening of cancerous lesions are described. A complete scheme for automated quantitative analysis and assessment of human and animal tissue images of several types of cancers is presented. Various aspects of the invention are directed to the detection, grading, prediction and staging of prostate cancer on serial sections/slides of prostate core images, or biopsy images. Accordingly, the invention includes a variety of sub-systems, which could be used separately or in conjunction to automatically grade cancerous regions. Each system utilizes a different approach with a different feature set. For instance, in the quantitative analysis, textural-based and morphology-based features may be extracted at image- and (or) object-levels from regions of interest.

Abstract: An artificial hypothalamus system for regulating body temperature for a human can include monitoring data from a plurality of sensors. The sensor data can be used in a control system to optimize temperature regulation in real time through a feedback loop. The feedback loop can include monitoring the sensor data, evaluating a predetermined set of fuzzy rules using the data, and combining the output of the fuzzy rules to produce a precise value. The precise value can correspond to an output level for various temperature regulation devices, and a signal can be transmitted based on the precise value to activate the temperature regulation devices to a corresponding level of output.
