  • Patent number: 12290372
    Abstract: A system and method is operable to automatically determine the amplitude and latency of one or more evoked potential (EP) or event-related potential (ERP) from electroencephalography (EEG) data. The EEG data from an EEG scan is separated into one or more epochs containing the desired EP or ERP waveforms. Epochs corresponding to the same type of EP or ERP such as N100, P300, and N400 are averaged automatically. The averaged epochs are automatically filtered in the time-frequency domain using an automatically selected filtering mask associated with the type of EP or ERP. A corresponding peak is automatically identified from the filtered epoch, in which the amplitude and latency is automatically measured.

  • Patent number: 12001775
    Abstract: A data corpus is partitioned into text strings for header classification. A group characteristic is computed for a text string, and whether the group characteristic satisfies a group characteristic criterion is determined. The text string may be disqualified from header classification if the group characteristic criterion is not satisfied, or one or more font characteristics may be determined for the text string if the group characteristic criterion is satisfied. A font characteristic that meets one or more prevalence criteria may be identified and evaluated to determine whether the font characteristic meets at least one font characteristic criterion. The text string may be disqualified from header classification if the font characteristic criterion is not satisfied, or if the font characteristic meets the font characteristic criterion, the text string is classified as a header, and tagged content is generated by applying a header tag to the text string.

  • Patent number: 11931521
    Abstract: Distributed feedback-circuitry uses operant conditioning to train a subject to achieve a target state of consciousness. The distributed feedback-circuitry includes remote circuitry having both a feature-extraction circuit and a controller. The former receives a real-time electroencephalogram and information indicative of a target state from the subject and generates a measured feature-set and a target feature-set therefrom. The latter causes transmission of a conditioning stimulus to be listened to by the subject. The conditioning stimulus causes the measured feature-set to be driven towards the target feature-set. The controller also causes the conditioning stimulus to comprise a conditioning-audio stimulus that transitions between being a base-audio stimulus with no reward stimulus and being a base-audio stimulus that has been operated on to incorporate a reward stimulus. The controller causes this transition based on progress made in causing the measured feature-set to conform to the target feature-set.
