Abstract: The invention relates to an event-driven spiking neural network system (100) and a method for detecting a physiological condition of a person based on a detected physiological signal of the person, the system comprising at least the following components: At least one sensor (111-1) configured and arranged to detect a physiological signal and to convert the physiological signal in a sensor signal (112) indicative of the physiological signal, A signal conversion module (120) configured and arranged to receive the sensor signal (112) from the at least one sensor (111-1) and to convert the sensor signal (112) in at least one time series of discrete events, An artificial neuron population (140) comprising a plurality of artificial event-driven spiking neurons (131-1, 131-N) arranged in an event-driven spiking neural network, wherein the neuron population (140) is configured and arranged to receive events, wherein the neuron population (140) is arranged to recognize the physiological condition of the person based o

Abstract: A method is provided for producing a membrane electrode unit, provided with a peripheral seal and a peripheral sealing frame for an electrochemical cell, comprising the steps of: (A) producing a sandwich-like arrangement, forming the membrane electrode unit, from a membrane and two gas diffusion electrodes, (B) connecting the sandwich-like arrangement to a seal that extends around said electrodes at the lateral outer edge thereof, said seal at the same time establishing the connection to the sealing frame that extends laterally around the membrane electrode unit.

Abstract: A modifiable server is utilized to reliably seal and unseal data according to a measurement of the server, by structuring the server to have a modifiable sandbox component for sealing, unsealing the data, and a non-modifiable checker component for enabling or disabling said sandbox component. The checker component determines whether the sandbox component complies with pre-determined standards. If the sandbox component is compliant, the checker component enables the sandbox component to seal and unseal the data using a measurement of the checker component. Otherwise, the checker component disables the sandbox component.

Abstract: A cloak server is used to analyze and control disclosure of user data by authenticating at least one of a user, an at least one client associated with the user, a source, a sink, and a third party. The cloak server receives user data transmitted by at least one of the at least one client and a source and associates the received user data with the user. The cloak server stores, seals, and unseals the received user data and is hardened such that the stored user data is not readable from outside the cloak server. The cloak server further generates, based at least in part on a first permissions indicator, a result by executing a computation on the stored user data, and transmits, based at least in part on a second permissions indicator, the result to at least one of the at least one client, and a sink.

Abstract: A computer system includes a database configured to receive a query and to produce a list of User IDs and an anonymization module. The anonymization module is configured to receive a list of user IDs in response to a query, the list of user IDs defining a true user count, generate a noisy user count of the list of user IDs, compare the true user count to a first threshold value stored in memory, compare the noisy user count to a second threshold value stored in memory, and output the noisy user count only if the true user count is greater than the first threshold value and the noisy user count is greater then the second threshold.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a biopolymer having excellent tensile strength, extensibility and toughness. The present invention further relates to a nucleic acid molecule encoding the biopolymer of the invention, a vector comprising the nucleic acid molecule of the invention and a non-human host transformed with the vector of the invention. Furthermore, the present invention relates to methods for producing a biopolymer of the invention and to foams, films, gels, coatings, particles, capsules, springs or nonwoven mats as well as fibers comprising or consisting of the biopolymer of the invention.
