Philip Aston, together with his collaborators Dr Manasi Nandi and Dr Mark Christie at Kings’ College London, filed a patent application in February 2014.  Over the past year, they have done more work which has been added to the patent and the PCT application was filed on 16th February this year.  The patent covers the new approach that the team have developed for extracting diagnostic information from large data sets.  A summary of the method can be found in the recent conference paper “Comparison of attractor reconstruction and HRV methods for analysing blood pressure data“, co-authored by Philip Aston, Manasi Nandi, Mark Christie, and Ying Huang.
