  • Publication number: 20240378492
    Abstract: There are many situations in which it is useful to identify similar entities or to quantify how similar one entity is to another. However, similarity is often subjective, making it challenging to determine the similarity of two entities computationally. In order to allow for determining the similarity of entities according to a customizable definition of similarity, a selection of features for determining similarity is received from a user device and a machine-learning model is trained to encode the values of the selected features for a particular entity as a representation. The representations of two different entities may be compared to determine the similarity of the two entities according to the selected features. The trained machine-learning model may, additionally or alternatively, be used for cluster analysis to identify similar groups of entities.

  • Publication number: 20240372271
    Abstract: Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology is a wireless technology for the transmission of large amounts of digital data as modulated coded impulses over a very wide frequency spectrum with very low power over a short distance. However, to support their deployment in a wide range of applications it would be beneficial to provide solutions which: exploit multiple directive antennas oriented in different directions to ensure spatial filtering of undesired signals and increase signal strength; exploit dynamic configuration of the multi-pulse bundles employed to transmit the bits/symbols within the packets to enhance link quality of service; exploit dynamic configuration of the band or bands which the transmitter operates upon; and exploit antenna sub-systems providing omnidirectional radiation patterns with implementations offering filtering and balun functions with small footprint and low cost.

  • Publication number: 20240356594
    Abstract: Ultra-wideband (UWB) systems are well-suited to applications such peripheral and device interconnections, sensor networks, control and communications, medical systems, and personal area networks. Whilst emission levels permitted by regulatory agencies are low forcing UWB systems tend to short-range applications other applications may be considered where regulatory restrictions are relaxed and/or not present when addressing military and civilian requirements for communications between individuals, electronic devices, control centers, and electronic systems for example. Accordingly, UWB transmitters, UWB receivers and UWB transceivers are outlined providing flexible configuration and management by the electronic devices, such as portable electronic devices, fixed electronic devices, and sensors for example, to enable their deployment including standalone systems solely exploiting solar harvesting.

  • Publication number: 20240268886
    Abstract: A method for generating a propagation and velocity maps for cardiac wavefront propagation including cardiac arrhythmia, sinus rhythm, and paced rhythm. Activation time information is generated in the absence of any time alignment reference, wherein an estimated activation time is a weighted summation of potentially nonlinear and nonorthogonal candidate functions (CFs) selected from a bank of CFs. Time alignments between sequential recordings may be done by including binary level functions among selected CFs. Embodiments are applicable to single catheter mapping and sequential mapping, and are robust as confirmed by the ability to generate propagation maps and conduction velocity in the presence of multiple colliding wavefronts. The propagation and conduction velocity maps may be used for one or more of diagnosing cardiac arrhythmia, localizing cardiac arrhythmia, guiding catheter ablation therapy of cardiac arrhythmia, and guiding cardiac pacing therapy.

  • Patent number: 12029265
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a protective device for protecting a proximal interphalangeal joint and a distal interphalangeal joint of a human finger. The device comprises a flexible sheath for wearing around the human finger and at least four motion constraining elements integrated in or secured to the flexible sheath. The motion constraining element is adapted for constraining a lateral and/or rotational deviation motion of a first phalanx with respect to a second phalanx. The motion constraining element covers a lateral side of the flexible sheath at a location corresponding to the joint and is adapted for resisting elongation of the motion constraining element in a longitudinal direction of the flexible sheath. The motion constraining element is bendable in a direction to allow flexion of the joint.

  • Publication number: 20240169230
    Abstract: A method is provided for deterministically generating a photonic resource state for computational quantum computing. The method includes producing a sequence of emitted photonic qubits. The sequence of emitted photonic qubits is directed to an optical circulator of a passive entanglement component. The passive entanglement component includes the optical circulator, a delay line, and a Controlled-Z (CZ) gate. Each photon in the sequence of emitted photonic qubits is reflected at the end of the first delay line to generate a sequence of reflected photonic qubits after a predetermined time delay. The CZ gate entangles the sequence of emitted photonic qubits with the sequence of reflected photonic qubits. The optical circulator directs a resource state generated from the sequence of reflected photonic qubits entangled with the sequence of emitted photonic qubits to an output of the passive component. The resource state is emitted as a sequence of entangled photonic qubits.

  • Publication number: 20230368514
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for a framework where over-the-air computation (OAC) occurs in both uplink (UL) and downlink (DL), sequentially, in a multi-cell environment to address the latency and the scalability issues of federated edge learning (FEEL). To eliminate the channel state information (CSI) at the edge devices (EDs) and edge servers (ESs) and relax the time-synchronization requirement for the OAC, we use a non-coherent computation scheme, i.e., orthogonal signaling based majority vote (MV). Multiple ESs function as the aggregation nodes in the UL. Each ES determines the MVs independently. After the ESs broadcast the detected MVs, the EDs determine the sign of the gradient through another OAC in the DL. Hence, inter-cell interference is exploited for the OAC. Convergence of the non-convex optimization problem for the FEEL is proven with the proposed OAC framework.
