Abstract: A dual chamber pacing system normally operates in an atrial synchronized mode, and includes a mode switch that switches the pacing mode to a non-atrial synchronized ventricular stimulating mode in response to the detection of an atrial tachyarrhythmia, and switches the pacing mode back to the atrial synchronized mode in response to, or after a preset time following, detection of cessation of the atrial tachyarrhythmia. A mode switch supervising circuit includes a counter that accumulates an amount of mode switches from a starting point, and supplies the accumulated amount to a comparator, wherein the accumulated amount is compared to a predetermined mode switch amount threshold. The mode switch supervising circuit controls the mode switch to lock the pacing mode to the non-atrial synchronized ventricular stimulating mode for at least a predetermined time period in response to the mode switch amount exceeding the amount threshold.

Abstract: Provided is a similarity search method that makes use of a localized distance metric. The data includes a collection of items, wherein each item is associated with a set of properties. The distance between two items is defined in terms of the number of items in the collection that are associated with the set of properties common to the two items. A query is generally composed of a set of properties. The distance between a query and an item is defined in terms of the number of items in the collection that are associated with the set of properties common to the query and the item. The properties can be of various types, such as binary, partially ordered, or numeric. The distance metric may be applied explicitly or implicitly for similarity search. One embodiment of this invention uses random walks such that the similarity search can be performed exactly or approximately, trading-off between accuracy and performance. The distance metric of the present invention can also be the basis for matching and clustering applications. In these contexts, the distance metric of the present invention may be used to build a graph, to which matching or clustering algorithms can be applied.
