Patent number: 11969256Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for identifying non-penetrating brain injury in a subject, as well as methods for classifying a subject that received a hit to the body that transmitted an impulsive force to the brain as either having a non-penetrating brain injury or not, by analyzing one or more components of frequency-following response (FFR) following administration of an acoustic stimulus to the subject. In addition, the present disclosure provides methods for assessing a subject's recovery from a non-penetrating brain injury. Also disclosed herein are processes and systems for automatically generating acoustic stimuli and processing brain response data to identify non-penetrating brain injuries in subjects.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2018Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Northwestern UniversityInventors: Nina Kraus, Jennifer Lynn Krizman, Trent George Nicol, Travis White-Schwoch

Publication number: 20240082704Abstract: A game-agnostic event detector can be used to automatically identify game events. Game-specific configuration data can be used to specify types of pre-processing to be performed on media for a game session, as well as types of detectors to be used to detect events for the game. Event data for detected events can be written to an event log in a form that is both human- and process-readable. The event data can be used for various purposes, such as to generate highlight videos or provide player performance feedback.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Jonathan White, Dave Clark, Nathan Otterness, Travis Muhlestein, Prabindh Sundareson, Jim van Welzen, Jack van Welzen

Publication number: 20230308430Abstract: A method for a receiver device to process programming code contained in an electronic message. The electronic message is received. A security check is performed, including determining whether a sender of the electronic message is an authorized sender and determining whether the sender is authorized to access one or more workflows identified by an address of the electronic message. On a condition that the security check passes, the programming code is parsed and the one or more workflows identified by the address of the electronic message are performed at the receiver device based on the programming code.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: KNO2 LLCInventor: Travis WHITE

Patent number: 11759140Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for evaluating the sound quality of a digital engineering process by, in part, measuring the frequency following response (FFR) of the human auditory system elicited by identical auditory stimuli (e.g., a musical interval) encoded with variations of a digital signal processing technique (e.g., various sampling rates). Once measured, the FFR may be analyzed to determine the comparative effect of each digital signal processing technique on a human subject's ability to process complex stimuli presented by the digital engineering process.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2018Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: Northwestern UniversityInventors: Nina Kraus, Trent George Nicol, Jennifer Lynn Krizman, Travis White-Schwoch

Publication number: 20230248582Abstract: A transfer pad is provided for use in transferring a person reclining on a bed with bed linens that includes a top sheet formed from a fluid permeable material, a bottom sheet and an absorbent core contained within the top and bottom sheet. The bottom sheet has a bottom surface formed of a material having a coefficient of friction adapted to slide on the bed linens with the patient on the transfer pad. The top and bottom sheets are connected at a fluid leak-proof seam around a perimeter of the top and bottom sheets. The absorbent core is disposed within the perimeter and includes in sequence a first tissue sheet, a fluid absorbent sheet formed of a cellulosic pulp and a super-absorbent polymer (SAP) and a second tissue sheet.

Publication number: 20220369997Abstract: Central nervous (“CNS”) health in subjects who have human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) or non-human-species analogs thereof is 102 evaluated or otherwise monitored by analyzing frequency following response (“FFR”). In general, one or more components of an FFR are analyzed, The FFR is measured in response to the administration of an acoustic stimulus to the subject. The acoustic stimulus includes a complex sound, which may include a consonant and a consonant-to-vowel transition. An indication of CNS health can be generated by measuring changes in the FFR components (e.g., over time or relative to normative data).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2020Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Nina Kraus, Jay C.

Patent number: 10607737Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods analyze a complex auditory response to generate a particular model for a behavioral outcome. An example method includes analyzing one or more response to a complex stimulus to identify regions in each response and peaks in each region. The example method includes constructing a behavioral outcome model based on region and peak information by evaluating a plurality of parameters based on the information associated with the regions and peaks and applying a best fit analysis to include and/or exclude parameters from the plurality of parameters to determine parameters and relationship between the parameters to form the model. The example method includes facilitating application of the model to generate a score by obtaining values for the parameters forming the model and combining the values according to the relationship between the parameters specified in the model, the score indicative of the behavior outcome with respect to at least one first subject.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2016Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: Northwestern UniversityInventors: Nina Kraus, Trent Nicol, Travis White-Schwoch
