  • Ability Classification
    Publication number: 20210056957
    Abstract: A system for classifying a subject's ability, said system comprising at least one user device adapted to present information on an interface to prompt a subject to provide user data associated with a predetermined ability and to capture the user data; and a first server adapted to receive the user data and input the user data into at least one artificial neural network, wherein the artificial neural network is trained to convert user data associated with the predetermined ability of the subject into one or more classification scores indicative of the predetermined ability of the subject.

  • Open circuit delay devices, systems, and methods for analyte measurement
    Patent number: 7794658
    Abstract: System, circuits, and methods to reduce or eliminate uncompensated voltage drop between an electrode of an electrochemical cell usable for analyte measurement. In one example, a system is provided that includes a test strip, a reference voltage circuit, an operational amplifier connected to the reference voltage circuit to provide a pre-determined fraction of a reference voltage substantially equal to the test voltage applied to the first line, the operational amplifier having an output configured for one of a connected or disconnected state to the first line, and a processing circuit connected to the output of the operational amplifier and the first line such that, during a disconnected state between the output and the first line, the processing circuit remains in connection with the first line.
