Patent number: 12206759Abstract: A digital steganography system comprises a message sender in electronic communication with a message receiver through a social media platform. The message sender uses a compute device configured to conceal a secret digital message in the semantic components of a digitally synthesized image which is uploaded onto the social media platform and published in a social media post. As part of the message encoding process, the compute device for the message sender coverts the digital message into binary code, applies encryption and error-correction algorithms, and then implements image synthetization operations to yield the digitally synthesized image. The message receiver is provided with a compute device configured to identify the social media post, automatically download the synthesized image, and apply an inverse set of the image synthetization operations to yield binary code which is subsequently decoded and decrypted in order to extract the original covert message.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: SYSTEMS & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH, LLCInventors: Richard Ivey, Piyush Kumar

Patent number: 7776522Abstract: Methods for diagnosis of HPV infection in a subject are provided. HPV infection in a subject can be determined by generating mass profile data for a biological sample from the subject and correlating the mass profile data with reference mass profiles to detect the presence or absence, and/or quantity of at least one biomarker associated with HPV infection. Methods for detecting at least one biomarker associated with HPV infection in a biological sample are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2008Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Richard Ivey, Stephen J. Lovell, Robert Rosenstein, Thomas Gentle, Song Shi

Publication number: 20080050829Abstract: Mass spectrometry techniques for determining the status of sepsis in an individual are provided. A biomarker profile resolved from a biological sample, taken from the individual, using a mass spectrometry technique is compared to a reference biomarker profile. A single such comparison classifies the individual as belonging to or not belonging to a reference population. The individual's biomarker profile and the reference biomarker profile comprise a plurality of ions each having a mass-to-charge ratio of about 100 Daltons to about 1000 Daltons. The plurality of ions can be detected by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in positive mode. The comparison uses a decision rule, such as a classification tree, that determines the status of sepsis in the individual without requiring knowledge of the identity of the biomarkers in the biomarker profile from the individual and without requiring knowledge of the identity of the biomarkers in the reference biomarker profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2006Publication date: February 28, 2008Inventors: Richard Ivey, Thomas Gentle, Richard Moore, Michael Towns, Nicholas Bachur, Robert Rosenstein, James Nadeau, Paul Goldenbaum, Song Shi, Donald Copertino, James Garrett, Gregory Tice, Gary Siuzdak, Elizabeth Want, Zhouxin Shen
