    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed for discovery of knowledge, interest and experience of individuals indicated by measured psychophysiologic response (e.g., electroencephalograph) to sensible stimuli (e.g., images). Stimuli are selected to explore targeted topics described in various levels of detail and sub-categories organized as hierarchal trees. The degree of psychophysiologic response to stimuli associated with sub-categories of topics in the hierarchal tree guides selection of additional stimuli to systematically explore hierarchal tree nodes, levels and branches to discover the extent of knowledge, interest or experience related to the targeted topic. A system enabling these methods provides archival and search of hierarchal trees associated with topics of interest, target and non-target stimuli, stimulus dataset generation, editing and presentation, psychophysiologic data collection and processing via local and remote resources, evoked response detection, characterization and scoring, and association of indications of knowledge, interest or experience with regards to facets of the targeted topic.

    摘要: A phase-change device for use in a volume of fluid, comprising a pressure vessel; a displacement cylinder; a displacement piston; a drive cylinder containing a phase-change material; a drive piston; and a gas spring. As the device sinks and experiences cooler fluid temperatures, the phase change material reduces in volume, causing the drive cylinder to move relative to the drive piston and thereby exert an outward force on the displacement piston. The displacement piston is pulled away from the displacement cylinder, increasing the overall displacement of the device. The increase in displacement increases the buoyancy of the device, thereby causing the device to rise in the fluid.
