Title: Sublimal sequential condensation carbon dioxide turbine (SSCCDT)
Inventor: SHAMIR PRAVINCHANDRA BUDHDEO
IPC: F02C1/10
Filed: 2017-08-23
Abstract: Freezing and sublimation of carbon dioxide is achieved by the use of liquid nitrogen and geothermal heat by way of capillary tubes (3 and 4, fig 2), which may be located in preferably spherical chambers 7 that may have fluted entrances and exit pipes 8,9 , into which the capillaries may protrude. The heated and expanded CO2 is delivered to the turbine blades 2 at high pressure by way of helically corrugated pipes with fluted inlets and outlets that increase the flow rate. Additional solar energy may be applied to the gas as it passes through the turbine. The CO2 gas exiting the turbine is preferably directed back to a spherical chamber wherein capillaries filled with liquid helium or liquid nitrogen may be used to freeze the CO2 before the capillaries containing geothermal heat again warm the solid CO2 causing sublimation. Valves may be used to prevent the gas leaving this chamber until a certain pressure is achieved. After heating the CO2, the geothermal heat may be exchanged in a heat recovery system.

Filed: 2018-02-16
Abstract: A method and system for detecting and classifying a motor seizure, e.g. an epileptic seizure, comprises receiving video data of a patient and detecting a first anomaly in the video data as an anomaly in movement of the patient. Using a pre-trained neural network 240 a video stack comprising the first anomaly is classified to obtain a first classification, and from this first classification a motor seizure type is determined. The first anomaly may be detected by determining a difference between an actual feature and a predicted feature over a video data segment, and registering the actual feature as the first anomaly. The method may further include receiving audio and/or depth data and determining a second anomaly in audio data or a third anomaly in depth data as an anomaly in sounds produced by, or movement of, the patient respectively. The second and third anomalies may be classified using a pre-trained neural network to obtain second and third classifications respectively, and the seizure type may be determined based on the first and, one or both of, the second and third classifications. The system further includes a video device and an apparatus comprising a processor and memory to perform the method.

Title: Aircraft and method of controlling
Inventor: STEFAN ALEXANDER SCHWINDT
IPC: B64D45/00
Filed: 2018-12-11
Abstract: A method 140 of controlling an aircraft 10 comprises tracking 141, using at least one sensor, one of an input by a pilot or a biometric parameter of a pilot during flight of the aircraft. The method includes determining 142 a lack of attention by the pilot or a depth of sleep of the pilot based on the sensor data. A predetermined amount of lack of attention, or a controlled rest, is allowed 143 before a system of the aircraft is controlled 144, or access to a system is modified (154, Fig. 5). The method may include determining a portion of the flight plan during which a period of controlled rest is allowable e.g. when cruising at altitude. An indication may be provided in the cockpit that controlled rest is allowable, but only if a second pilot is present and not sleeping. A timer may monitor a period of controlled rest, and trigger a wake-up procedure e.g. audible warning, vibrating seat. If unacceptable absence or incapacitation of the pilot is determined then a recovery procedure begins e.g. unlock cockpit door, automatic landing, distress tracker.

Title: Reducing a noise level of an audio signal of a hearing system
Inventor: HANS-UELI ROECK
IPC: G10L21/0208
Filed: 2019-01-21
Abstract: Noise reduction for audio signals in a hearing device is achieved by detecting an n-gram of phonemes (eg. “iz” at T-2 and T-1) in an ambient audio signal 14 (dotted line), predicting a probable phoneme and its expected audio signal 38 (solid line) in a subsequent time slot T (in this case a silent pause after “is”), determining the deviation 40 between the observed and expected audio properties (eg. spectra or frequency band components) in the time slot (in this case a large deviation, possibly from a cough or environmental noise after “is”), and attenuating the signal in the time slot based on the deviation (ie. “forcing” the silent pause predicted). Probable sequences may be constructed for multiple time slots, phonemes may be discarded and the language model may be user-selected.
