  • Patent number: 10692602
    Abstract: Methods and systems for medical diagnosis by machine learning are disclosed. Imaging data obtained from different medical techniques can be used as a training set for a machine learning method, to allow diagnosis of medical conditions in a faster a more efficient manner. A three-dimensional convolutional neural network can be employed to interpret volumetric data available from multiple scans of a patient. The imaging data can be analyzed according to a forced taxonomy and any discrepancy in the labels of the taxonomy during data analysis by machine learning and human experts can be resolved based on the forced taxonomy.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for medical diagnosis by machine learning are disclosed. Imaging data obtained from different medical techniques can be used as a training set for a machine learning method, to allow diagnosis of medical conditions in a faster a more efficient manner. A three-dimensional convolutional neural network can be employed to interpret volumetric data available from multiple scans of a patient. The imaging data can be analyzed in real-time to prescribe additional testing while the patient is still within the medical facility.

  • Publication number: 20140257049
    Abstract: An apparatus mountable on a wearer's wrist includes a housing having at front portion and an opposite a back portion. The back portion is wearably positionable in contact with the wearer's wrist. The apparatus includes a PPG circuit for generating a PPG signal. The PPG circuit includes a light source and a photosensor on the housing back portion. The PPG signal may be used to continuously determine the wearer's a pulse rate. The PPG signal may also be used in combination with an ECG signal to determine the wearer's instantaneous blood pressure. The ECG signal may also be used to determine the wear's heart rate. The ECG signal may be generated with an electrode mounted on the back of the housing and another electrode mounted on another portion of the housing, such as the back or one or more of the sides.

  • Publication number: 20110248517
    Abstract: A security device is provided for securing a sliding closure movable in one direction against one aperture frame and movable in an opposite direction toward an opposed aperture frame. The security device includes a handle, a press bar, and a fulcrum component for interconnecting the handle and the press bar to one another. The press bar is disposable between the sliding closure and the opposed aperture frame. Also, the handle promotes release of the press bar from its disposition between the sliding closure and the opposed aperture frame when a force is applied to the handle and the handle is movable between a release ready position and a stowage position in the handle.

  • Publication number: 20110235818
    Abstract: A headset apparatus having a headwear member (9) e.g. an ear shell, possessing a surface formation to which a separate attachment device (1) is reciprocally shaped to attach by a push-fit (e.g. by sliding, slotting or clipping) into engagement with the surface formation. In this way the attachment means may be fitted to the surface formation on the headwear member without requiring the use of through-holes passing through the body of the headwear member.

  • Publication number: 20070213884
    Abstract: The system includes a controller, a portable media reader, and an input device. The controller is in communication with the portable media reader and the input device. The controller detects when a particular portable media is inserted into the portable media reader for a first time. When the controller detects the initial insertion of the portable media, the controller records a macro. As the user configures the system, user input is recorded by the macro. The controller is configured to play the macro when the portable media is subsequently loaded into the portable media player.

  • Publication number: 20070049193
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved receiver system including a tuner and a database. The tuner is configured to receive a signal including program signal data and program information data. The database is in communication with the tuner, allowing the tuner to store the program information data into the database and correlate the program information data with time markers indicative of user interest in the program signal data. The tuner is configured to generate a selection list based on the time markers and the program information data.

  • Publication number: 20070049240
    Abstract: A satellite receiver system including an antenna, an amplifier, a tuner, a base band processor, and a buffer is provided. The antenna is configured to receive a satellite signal. The amplifier is in communication with the antenna and configured to generate an amplified signal based on the satellite signal. The tuner is in communication with the antenna and configured to receive the amplified signal. The tuner generates a program signal based on the amplified signal. The base band processor receives the program signal from the tuner and generates a plurality of data segments in the program signal at predefined time intervals. The base band processor stores the program signal in the buffer thereby causing a time delay in the program signal. If the satellite signal is interrupted, the tuner will continue to play out of the buffer without interruption.
