  • Publication number: 20240122484
    Abstract: Exemplified methods and systems facilitate presentation of data derived from measurements of the heart in a non-invasive procedure (e.g., via phase space tomography analysis). In particular, the exemplified methods and systems facilitate presentation of such measurements in a graphical user interface, or “GUI” (e.g., associated with a healthcare provider web portal to be used by physicians, researchers, or patients, and etc.) and/or in a report for diagnosis of heart pathologies and disease. The presentation facilitates a unified and intuitive visualization that includes three-dimensional visualizations and two-dimensional visualizations that are concurrently presented within a single interactive interface and/or report.

  • Publication number: 20230157618
    Abstract: Phase space tomography methods and systems to facilitate the analysis and evaluation of complex, quasi-periodic system by generating computed phase-space tomographic images and mathematical features as a representation of the dynamics of the quasi-periodic cardiac systems. The computed phase-space tomographic images can be presented to a physician to assist in the assessment of presence or non-presence of disease. In some implementations, the phase space tomographic images are used as input to a trained neural network classifier configured to assess for presence or non-presence of pulmonary hypertension, including pulmonary arterial hypertension.

  • Patent number: 11476000
    Abstract: Exemplified method and system facilitates monitoring and/or evaluation of disease or physiological state using mathematical analysis and machine learning analysis of a biopotential signal collected from a single electrode. The exemplified method and system creates, from data of a singularly measured biopotential signal, via a mathematical operation (i.e., via numeric fractional derivative calculation of the signal in the frequency domain), one or more mathematically-derived biopotential signals (e.g., virtual biopotential signals) that is used in combination with the measured biopotential signals to generate a multi-dimensional phase-space representation of the body (e.g., the heart). By mathematically modulating (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20220093215
    Abstract: A facility for identifying combinations of feature and machine learning algorithm parameters, where each combination can be combined with one or more machine learning algorithms to train a model, is disclosed. The facility evaluates each genome based on the ability of a model trained using that genome and a machine learning algorithm to produce accurate results when applied to a validation data set by, for example, generating a fitness or validation score for the trained model and the corresponding genome used to train the model. Genomes that produce fitness scores that exceed a fitness threshold are selected for mutation, mutated, and the process is repeated. These trained models can then be applied to new data to generate predictions for the underlying subject matter.

  • Publication number: 20220093216
    Abstract: A facility providing systems and methods for discovering novel features to use in machine learning techniques. The facility receives, for a number of subjects, one or more sets of data representative of some output or condition of the subject over a period of time or capturing some physical aspect of the subject. The facility then extracts or computes values from the data and applies one or more feature generators to the extracted values. Based on the outputs of the feature generators, the facility identifies novel feature generators for use in at least one machine learning process and further mutates the novel feature generators, which can then be applied to the received data to identify additional novel feature generators.

  • Publication number: 20210212582
    Abstract: The exemplified methods and systems facilitate the quantification of cardiac cycle-variability as a metric of signal quality of an acquired signal data set and the rejection, based on that quantification, of said acquired signal data set from one or more subsequent analyses that can predict and/or estimate a metric associated with the presence, non-presence, severity, and/or localization of abnormal cardiovascular conditions or disease, including, for example, but not limited to, coronary artery disease, abnormal left ventricular end-diastolic pressure disease (LVEDP), pulmonary hypertension and subcategories thereof, heart failure (HF), among others as discussed herein.

  • Publication number: 20200046286
    Abstract: Systems to identify and risk stratify disease states, cardiac structural defects, functional cardiac deficiencies induced by teratogens and other toxic agents, pathological substrates, conduction delays and defects, and ejection fraction using single channel biological data obtained from the subject. A modified Matching Pursuit (MP) algorithm may be used to find a noiseless model of the data that is sparse and does not assume periodicity of the signal. After the model is derived, various metrics and subspaces are extracted to characterize the cardiac system. In another system, space-time domain is divided into a number of regions (which is largely determined by the signal length), the density of the signal is computed in each region and input to a learning algorithm to associate them to the desired cardiac dysfunction indicator target.

  • Patent number: 10542897
    Abstract: The present disclosure facilitates capture of biosignal such as biopotential signals in microvolts, or sub-microvolts, resolutions that are at, or significantly below, the noise-floor of conventional electrocardiographic and biosignal acquisition instruments. In some embodiments, the exemplified system disclosed herein facilitates the acquisition and recording of wide-band phase gradient signals (e.g., wide-band cardiac phase gradient signals, wide-band cerebral phase gradient signals) that are simultaneously sampled, in some embodiments, having a temporal skew less than about 1 ?s, and in other embodiments, having a temporal skew not more than about 10 femtoseconds. Notably, the exemplified system minimizes non-linear distortions (e.g., those that can be introduced via certain filters) in the acquired wide-band phase gradient signal so as to not affect the information therein.
