  • Method and device for monitoring analyte concentration by determining its progression in the living body of a human or animal
    Patent number: 7650244
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a method and a device for monitoring an analyte concentration in the living body of a human or animal. In particular to a method and device for determining analyte values y(tn) correlating with the concentration to be determined are determined for consecutive points in time tn. The analyte values y(tn) is used to predict a prediction value for an analyte y(tn0+?t) over a prediction period ?t.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and apparatus for processing noisy sound signals
    Patent number: 6502067
    Abstract: A method for processing a sound signal y in which redundancy, consisting mainly of almost repetitions of signal profiles, is detected and correlations between the signal profiles are determined within segments of the sound signal. Correlated signal components are allocated to a power component and uncorrelated signal components to a noise component of the sound signal. The correlations between the signal profiles are determined by methods of nonlinear noise reduction in deterministic systems in reconstructed vector spaces based on the time domain.
