GENERATING A MAPPING FUNCTION FOR TRACKING A POSITION OF AN ELECTRODE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18269891 titled 'GENERATING A MAPPING FUNCTION FOR TRACKING A POSITION OF AN ELECTRODE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a mechanism for generating a mapping function that can map measurements taken at an electrode within crossing electric fields to positions within a multidimensional coordinate system. The mapping function is generated using a machine-learning algorithm that uses example measurements of the electrode as input and provides values for the coefficients of the mapping function as output.

  • The mechanism generates a mapping function for mapping measurements taken at an electrode within crossing electric fields to positions within a multidimensional coordinate system.
  • The mapping function is generated using a machine-learning algorithm.
  • The machine-learning algorithm receives example measurements of the electrode as input.
  • The machine-learning algorithm provides values for the coefficients of the mapping function as output.
  • The mechanism includes a method and processing system for carrying out this mechanism.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various fields where precise mapping of measurements taken at an electrode is required.
  • It can be used in medical applications for mapping measurements taken from electrodes placed on the human body.
  • It can be used in scientific research for mapping measurements taken in complex electric fields.
  • It can be used in industrial applications for mapping measurements taken in manufacturing processes.

Problems Solved

  • The mechanism solves the problem of accurately mapping measurements taken at an electrode within crossing electric fields to positions within a multidimensional coordinate system.
  • It eliminates the need for manual mapping or approximation methods, providing a more precise and efficient solution.
  • It solves the problem of generating the mapping function using a machine-learning algorithm, which can adapt and improve over time.

Benefits

  • The technology provides a more accurate and reliable mapping of measurements taken at an electrode.
  • It saves time and effort by automating the mapping process.
  • The machine-learning algorithm allows for continuous improvement and adaptation of the mapping function.
  • It can be easily integrated into existing systems and processes.


Original Abstract Submitted

A mechanism for generating a mapping function for mapping measurements taken at an electrode within crossing electric fields to a position or positions within a multidimensional co-ordinate system. The values for coefficients of the mapping function are generated using a first machine-learning algorithm, which receives, as input, example measurements (or responses) of the electrode and provides, as output, values for the coefficients for the mapping function. There is proposed a method and processing system for carrying out this mechanism.
