  • Publication number: 20190167350
    Abstract: Example methods and systems may be used intraoperatively to help surgeons perform accurate and replicable surgeries, such as knee arthroplasty surgeries. An example system combines real time measurement and tracking components with functionality to compile data collected by the hardware to register a bone of a patient, calculate an axis (e.g., mechanical axis) of the leg of the patient, assist a surgeon in placing cut guides, and verify a placement of an inserted prosthesis.

  • Patent number: 10257706
    Abstract: A system and method for the management of electronic credentials stored on mobile devices. The system may encrypt information that is provided to a lock device and an access control system using diversification keys. The diversification keys may be generated by supplying a master key and a component identifier such as, for example, a mobile device identifier, to a diversification algorithm. The mobile device may be a conduit for the communication of information between the access control system and the lock device. The mobile device may be unable to decrypt information that has been encrypted by a diversification key. Embodiments also provide for enrolling administrative mobile devices with the access control system, the distribution and revocation of credential identifiers for user mobile device, and removing administrative mobile devices that are enrolled with lock devices.

  • Publication number: 20190035113
    Abstract: A method, computer readable medium, and system are disclosed for temporally stable data reconstruction. A sequence of input data including artifacts is received. A first input data frame is processed using layers of a neural network model to produce external state including a reconstructed first data frame that approximates the first input data frame without artifacts. Hidden state generated during processing of the first input data is not provided as an input to the layer to process second input data. The external state is warped, using difference data corresponding to changes between input data frames, to produce warped external state more closely aligned with the second input data frame. The second input data frame is processed, based on the warped external state, using the layers of the neural network model to produce a reconstructed second data frame that approximates the second data frame without artifacts.
