  • Patent number: 11289057
    Abstract: Methods and systems of music notation for visually representing music that provide a visual scale representing a range of an auditory scale of a portion of a musical composition spanning at least four and a half steps. The visual scale may comprise a plurality of whole-step segments each representing one whole step in the auditory scale. Each whole-step segment may be approximately a first height. The visual scale may also comprise one or more half-step segments each representing one half step in the auditory scale. Each half-step segment may be approximately a second height. A first ratio representing the first height divided by the second height may be significantly greater than a second ratio representing the whole step divided by the half step.

  • Patent number: 10070812
    Abstract: A method for improved seizure detection includes capturing neural data for a first set of brain regions; calculating inter-region correlations between pairs of the first set of brain regions from the neural data; detecting a period of hyposynchrony from the inter-region correlations; after detecting the period of hyposynchrony, detecting a period of hypersynchrony from the inter-region correlations; and based on a transition from the period of hyposynchrony to the period of hypersynchrony, detecting a first seizure.
