IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2020-12-21
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a computer-implemented method for generating verification keys of a public-key signature scheme in a distributed network. The method comprises performing, by a subset of the nodes of a first subnetwork of nodes, a first distributed key generation protocol, the first distributed key generation protocol being configured to generate jointly a verification key for the first subnetwork and a plurality of corresponding secret key shares for the nodes of the first subnetwork. The method further comprises a step of performing, for a second subnetwork, by a subset of the plurality of nodes of the first subnetwork, a second distributed key generation protocol, the second distributed key generation protocol being configured to generate jointly a verification key of the second subnetwork and a plurality of corresponding secret key shares for the nodes of the second subnetwork. A further step comprises signing, by a subset of the nodes of the first subnetwork, the verification key of the second subnetwork with a permissible subset of the secret key shares of the nodes of the first subnetwork, thereby generating a joint signature on the verification key of the second subnetwork. Further aspects relate to a distributed network, a node of a distributed network and corresponding computer program products.

Title: Patterned incision foil and method for determining a geometry of an anatomical surface
Inventor: SCHMALER CHRISTIAN
IPC: A61B46/20
Filed: 2020-12-17
Abstract: Disclosed is an incision foil made of a sterile, thin adhesive plastic film with a defined pattern printed on it (e.g. a fine grid pattern) which can be stuck e.g. on a patient's skin surface and which marks the anatomical region of interest. Using a camera, images are acquired of the attached film and the deformation of the pattern is digitized. With a computer vision algorithm the surface of the patient, which corresponds to the surface of the film, is reconstructed from the detected pattern features in the images in comparison to the known original undeformed pattern. Disclosed is also a method for determining a geometry of the surface of the patient using the incision foil.
