  • Patent number: 11850079
    Abstract: Disclosed examples include those directed to detecting and remediating detachment of electrodes from a patient. In an example, a system calculates a Pearson correlation coefficient between: (1) power spectral density of the noise and (2) power spectral density of a recorded signal (e.g., from an electrode being operated in free-run EMG mode). If the recorded signal correlates with the noise, then the system notifies the user of presence of noise (e.g., the fallen electrode). Otherwise, the recorded signal is considered as the signal of interest (e.g., a valid EMG signal).

  • Publication number: 20230362207
    Abstract: A computer method and system for mitigating Domain Name System (DNS) misuse using a probabilistic data structure, such as a cuckoo filter. Intercepted is network traffic flowing from one or more external hosts to a computer network, the intercepted network traffic including a DNS request that requests a Resource Record name in a DNS zone file. A determination is made as to whether the DNS request is requesting resolution at a protected DNS Name Server. A hash value is calculated for the requested Resource Record name if it is determined the DNS request is requesting resolution at the protected DNS Name Server. A determination is then made as to whether the calculated hash value for the requested Resource Record name is present in the probabilistic data structure. The DNS request is forwarded to the protected server if the requested Resource Record name is determined present in the probabilistic data structure.
