  • Patent number: 11163068
    Abstract: A method of detecting and mitigating Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) spoofing events may comprise determining a first vehicle state based on an Inertial Navigation System (INS) without GNSS input, determining a second vehicle state based on an INS with GNSS input, and comparing the first vehicle states. When a difference between the vehicle states exceeds a predetermined threshold, the method concludes that GNSS spoofing is present, and utilizes only the first vehicle state as a correct vehicle state. The method may further implement at least one state processing path, comprising consecutive processing runs based on INS sensors. The method may further comprise reevaluating the vehicle state processing path, when the difference between the first vehicle state and the second vehicle state exceeds a threshold, to extricate a GNSS component from the processing path to at least a predetermined amount of time prior to when the GNSS spoofing was detected.

The physical detector is configured to physically measure a measurement value assigned to the signal processing component. The virtual detector component is configured to use a model of a signal processing chain from the physical detector to the location of the virtual detector. The model comprises at least one model parameter for the signal processing chain. The measurement device is configured to adapt the virtual detector component with respect to a measurement type for the signal to be measured. The virtual detector component is configured to use the model and the at least one measurement value.

  • Patent number: 11030395
    Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for displaying annotation(s) of an electronic document. User input to review (e.g., scroll) the electronic document is received, until a selected portion of the electronic document is displayed within a viewport pane of a display. In response to the review input, annotation(s) (e.g., comment(s), comment thread(s), annotation thread(s)) anchored within the selected portion of the electronic document displayed within the viewport pane are identified. Which annotation of the annotation(s) to visually distinguish for a focus of the user is determined. The identified annotation(s) are displayed in an annotation pane, with the determined annotation visually distinguished (highlighted) for the focus of the user. In some embodiments, the anchor associated with the determined annotation is also visually distinguished to provide a contextual link to the user and/or hint(s) that provided a visual signal of annotation(s) associated with an anchor on a particular line are displayed.

  • Publication number: 20210012904
    Abstract: A method of generating a clinically supplemented risk score using data from an electronic health record system can include collecting data from a plurality of electronic health records; parsing the data into defined fields; comparing the parsed data to at least one look-up table to generate an inferred diagnostic condition; comparing the inferred diagnostic condition to a documented diagnostic condition; mapping the inferred diagnostic condition to at least one condition category; refining the at least one mapped inferred diagnostic condition into a hierarchy to generate a hierarchal mapped conditioned category; and determining via a processor, a risk score in response to the inferred diagnostic condition for the patient in response to the hierarchal mapped conditioned category, the risk score representing an expected total cost of care for the patient relative to the average per-patient cost of care over an entire population.
