  • Publication number: 20240096498
    Abstract: A method for evaluating a risk of a subject getting a specific disease includes steps of: storing a reference database that contains original parameter sets; selecting target alleles from an SNP profile derived from genome sequencing data of a subject; selecting target parameter sets from among the original parameter sets; calculating, for each of the target parameter sets, a race factor based on a global risk allele frequency and a group-specific risk allele frequency included in the target parameter set; calculating a genetic factor based on statistics, global reference allele frequencies, the race factors for the target parameter sets, and numbers of chromosomes in homologous chromosome pairs included in the target parameter sets; calculating a citation factor based on numbers of citation times included in the target parameter sets; and calculating a risk score based on the genetic factor and the citation factor.

  • Patent number: 9048013
    Abstract: A pressure sensible textile has at least a high-resistance conducting area and two groups of low-resistance conducting wefts or warps contacting the high-resistance area directly. The two groups of low-resistance conducting wefts or warps cross each other and do not contact with each other directly. Furthermore, two scanning circuits can be electrically connected to the two groups of low-resistance conducting wefts or warps. Then, a controller is added to the two scanning circuits to obtain a pressure sensible device.

  • Patent number: 8052612
    Abstract: The present invention provides a sleep respiration monitoring system for monitoring sleep quality of a user. The sleep respiration monitoring system has a sensing fabric, a detecting circuit and a judging and analysis circuit. The electrical characteristics of the sensing fabric vary with respiration status or extent of body movement of a user. The detecting circuit detects the electrical characteristics of the sensing fabric. The judging and analysis circuit performs signal processing, signal collection, signal classification and signal determination on output signals of the detecting circuit, so as to determine whether the user lies on the sensing fabric and the sleep quality of the user.

  • Patent number: 7828019
    Abstract: A fabric for detecting vital signals from human body includes a layer of fabric and electrically conductive yarns. The layer of fabric is formed of weft and warp electrically insulating yarns woven together. Electrically conductive yarns is woven in parallel with weft or warp electrically insulating yarns and interval-spaced from one another. Each of the electrically conductive yarns has a wave-shaped detecting section. All wave crests of the wave-shaped detecting section are protruded out of a surface of the layer of fabric while all wave troughs of the wave-shaped detecting section are woven within the layer of fabric. Each of electrically conductive yarns has its all wave crests misaligned in position with all wave crests of its immediately adjacent electrically conductive yarn. Each of electrically conductive yarns has its all wave troughs misaligned in position with all wave troughs of its immediately adjacent electrically conductive yarn.

  • Publication number: 20030131577
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for twisting and covering interchanged spinning. It utilizes a programmed way to control the ring spinning frame in producing twisted and covered structures thus spinning composite yarns. The method feeds filament or staple yarn into different selected positions in the spinning triangle upon the tension interchange to rapidly spin two different structured yarns, therefore, enriches variety of the woven fabric and increase the industrial value.

  • Publication number: 20020174644
    Abstract: This is a fancy yarn spinning device with the number of counts and twisting varying according to the variation of waveforms, designed with pre-defined waveforms, working with fixed cycles, fixed amplitudes, or random cycles, and random amplitudes, which serve as drafting and twisting parameters for the ring spinning machine. This device involves a servomotor and a inverter, for respective control of the revolutions of front, middle, and rear rollers of the ring spinning machine and the spindle, so the drafting rate and twisting of all areas of the ring spinning machine can change continuously with pre-defined settings, to produce yarns with variable number of counts and twisted conditions. The design of variable waveforms can also achieve different touch and visual feelings.
