  • Patent number: 11955116
    Abstract: Content is organized for brands by selecting a plurality of brand templates. After each selection, a set of properties is generated by applying a portion of settings of the respective brand template, with the remaining settings being overridden with settings for a channel communicating one of a plurality of presentations to a node of a network involved in the communication. The plurality of presentations may include different renditions of the same content. The properties may include sections configured for different focus areas and/or types of content associated with at tags to enable brand-level-targeting. Filters may be identified in the properties. Based on each of the identifications, a property from among the generated sets of properties may be selected based on comparisons with the associated tags.

  • Patent number: 11764046
    Abstract: The invention generally relates to systems and methods for precursor and neutral loss scan in an ion trap. In certain aspects, the invention provides a system that includes a mass spectrometer having an ion trap, and a central processing unit (CPU). The CPU includes storage coupled to the CPU for storing instructions that when executed by the CPU cause the system to excite a precursor ion and eject a product ion in the single ion trap.

  • Patent number: 11318296
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to automate determination of therapy parameter values for adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS). A medical device may determine differences in power values between a present and a previous power value. Based on the difference being greater than or equal to a threshold value, the medical device may iteratively adjust a present therapy parameter value until the difference in the power values between a present and a previous power value is less than the threshold value.

  • Patent number: 10953222
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for delivering electrical stimulation therapy to a patient. In one example, a medical system delivers electrical stimulation therapy to a tissue of the patient via electrodes. The medical system determines a first response of a first sensed signal of the patient to the electrical stimulation therapy and a second response of a second sensed signal of the patient to the electrical stimulation therapy. Based on the first response and the second response for controlling the electrical stimulation therapy, the medical system selects one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal of the patient. The medical system adjusts a level of at least one parameter of the electrical stimulation therapy based on the selected one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal.

  • Patent number: 10448853
    Abstract: An arrhythmia classification system receives cardiac data from an implantable medical device, performs automatic adjudication of each cardiac arrhythmia episode indicated by the cardiac data, and generates episode data representative of information associated with the episode. The episode data include at least an episode classification resulting from the automatic adjudication of the episode and a confidence level in the episode classification. In one embodiment, the episode data further include key features rationalizing the automatic adjudication of the episode.
