Abstract: A biosensor system determines analyte concentration from an output signal generated from a light- identifiable species or a redox reaction of the analyte. The biosensor system adjusts a correlation for determining analyte concentrations from output signals or determined analyte concentrations with one or more complex index function extracted from the output signals or from other sources. The complex index functions determine at least one slope deviation value, delta S, or normalized slope deviation from one or more error parameters. The slope -adjusted correlation between analyte concentrations and output signals may be used to determine analyte concentrations having improved accuracy and/or precision from output signals including components attributable to bias.

In certain embodiments, rigorous (e.g., higher fidelity) models are implemented with respect to the reduced parameter space provided by use of surrogate models to efficiently and more rapidly arrive at an optimized solution. Accordingly, certain embodiments build surrogate models of an actual simulation, and systematically reduce the number of design parameters used in the actual simulation to solve optimization problems using the actual simulation. A  multi-stage method that facilitates optimization of decisions related to development planning and reservoir management may be provided. Iterative processing may be implemented with respect to a multi-stage optimization method. There may be uncertainty in various parameters, such as in reservoir parameters, which is taken into account according to certain embodiments.

Title: Corneal inlay with nutrient transport structures
Inventor: CHRISTIE BRUCE
IPC: A61F2/14
Filed: 2010-08-13
Granted: 2017-04-25
Abstract: Corneal inlays and masks and methods of improving vision of a patient with corneal inlays and masks are provided. Masks with an aperture can improve the vision of a patient, such as by increasing the depth of focus of an eye of a patient. For example, a mask can have an annular portion with a relatively low visible light transmission surrounding a relatively high transmission central portion, such as a clear lens or aperture. This provides an annular mask with a small aperture for light to pass through to the retina to increase depth of focus. The mask may also include nutrient transport structures that provide nutrient flow through mask to prevent nutrient depletion. These nutrient transport structures can be configured to concentrate nutrient transmission near a center region of the mask to provide more nutrient flow near the center region.

Granted: 2013-03-12
Abstract: Les propriétés de détection de début, d'adaptation et d'écart de fréquence du système auditif humain ont été modélisées afin de créer des systèmes permettant de détecter des transitoires directionnels (« événement sonore ») dans un champ acoustique et des localiser séparément. Ces modèles divisent un champ acoustique en événements sonores et non sonores et localisent séparément ces événements. Les événements sonores sont généralement identifiés à l'aide des propriétés d'écart de fréquence et de détection de début. Une fois détectés, les événements sonores sont généralement localisés à l'aide d'angles de braquage différentiels auxquels les signaux ont été adaptés ou d'angles de braquage ordinaires qui reflètent la direction d'un événement sonore indiquée dans son temps de montée. Lorsqu'aucun événement sonore n'est détecté, les événements non sonores sont localisés à l'aide d'un angle de braquage qui ne reflète pas leur mouvement rapide.
