  • Patent number: 11612744
    Abstract: A head cap with channel identification includes a head cap, channel identification module, a controlling module, and electrical stimulation modules. The head cap includes the channels therein, and the head cap includes brain regions corresponding to the brain areas of the human being. The electrical stimulation modules disposed in the channels, and the channel identification modules disposed around the peripheral of the channels. The controlling module is electrically coupled to the channel identification modules. When the electrical stimulation modules disposed in some of the channels, the channel identification modules around the peripheral of the channels and the electrical stimulation module are constituted a circuit conduction status or a short circuit status, then the channel identification module transmits a signal to the controlling module to determine the desired sites of the electrical stimulation module where is corresponding to one of the brain areas of the human being according to the signal.

  • Publication number: 20200301987
    Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, taste data is generated and usable within one or more applications. A taste is one or more elements that describe an entity. Information of an application may be processed to extract entity data that corresponds to a plurality of candidates to be designated as tastes (taste data). The candidates for the tastes are curated. In examples, the curating comprises filtering the candidates for tastes to remove extracted candidates. Extraction rules for managing structured taste data may be applied in the filtering. A status of a remaining candidate may be determined as approved or rejected based on processing of received user feedback. Taste data may be generated for an approved candidate. The generating of the taste data may comprise assigning parameters that include a descriptor type and a recommendation type. Taste data may be used within an application.

  • Publication number: 20070153004
    Abstract: An animation file player can display animation files with an embedded system graphics application programming interface (graphics API). In an example implementation, an animation file comprises a Flash® animation file such as, a Shockwave Flash® animation file, and the embedded system graphics API comprises an OpenGL®|ES graphics API. The present invention is not intended to be so limited, and other types of animation files and embedded system graphics APIs can be used.

  • Publication number: 20070043610
    Abstract: An algorithm for analyzing presidential preference opinion polls to arrive at a statistical snapshot of a multistate electoral-vote-allocation political race such as the US presidential race. Multiple opinion polls are used to estimate the outcome probability in individual state races. Polls are used to calculate a probability distribution of all possible electoral vote outcomes. The algorithm includes a method for calculating a median electoral vote estimator at any moment during a campaign. The electoral vote estimator can be tracked over time. The estimation of single-state probability is done using a Bayesian method to correct for sampling biases and systematic errors in polls, thereby allowing correction of the overall estimate. The algorithm calculates the relative value of an individual vote, the jerseyvote, in different states. The jerseyvote valuation aids resource allocation by a political campaign or party, an advocacy organization, or an individual activist.

  • Publication number: 20060008250
    Abstract: A number of different subroutines or algorithms are provided for locating lost video data, reconstructing navigation data, and creating new navigation files or the like so that the DVD may be made readable by an ordinary DVD player. The present invention provides algorithms to recover video data for each of a number of different DVD formats, so that video data may be recovered regardless of which format DVD was being used at the time (e.g., DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD?RW, DVD?R, or the like). In addition, the present invention provides a number of other algorithms that be used by one or more of the different recovery algorithms, to recover various aspects of data from a disc. The combination of these algorithms provides a complete package of data recovery techniques that allows for video data to be recovered in the event of a power loss or other interruption, and in most instances, creates recordable DVD which may be subsequently read by other DVD players and the like.
