  • Publication number: 20250213191
    Abstract: A continuous analyte monitoring system includes analyte sensors configured to sense analytes such as lactate and glucose in the tissue of a user. A controller is coupled to the analyte sensors and configured evaluate first samples of outputs of a first analyte sensor and second samples of outputs of a second analyte sensor to determine whether the first samples and the second samples indicate compression of the tissue. The controller compensates for the compression of the tissue with respect to the first samples. A force sensor may be used and may be positioned between a circuit board and a housing, the circuit board supported by supports providing preloading of the force sensor. A force deflector may be used to direct loads away from tissue holding the analyte sensors. A housing may have a flexible lower surface to reduce loading of the tissue.

  • Patent number: 12328298
    Abstract: A system obtains data logs from a set of applications that each output data of different data types and in different formats. Data is obtained from the applications as an input message stream and processed into an output message stream with messages in a standardized format for processing by an engine. The data source is detected from analysis of the data and a corresponding filter is applied to generate the output message stream. An alert is provided to an administrative interface when a pattern indicative of malicious activity is detected in the output data steam.

  • Patent number: 12290372
    Abstract: A system and method is operable to automatically determine the amplitude and latency of one or more evoked potential (EP) or event-related potential (ERP) from electroencephalography (EEG) data. The EEG data from an EEG scan is separated into one or more epochs containing the desired EP or ERP waveforms. Epochs corresponding to the same type of EP or ERP such as N100, P300, and N400 are averaged automatically. The averaged epochs are automatically filtered in the time-frequency domain using an automatically selected filtering mask associated with the type of EP or ERP. A corresponding peak is automatically identified from the filtered epoch, in which the amplitude and latency is automatically measured.
