BioCoherence 1.16
Dear friends,

Version 1.16 is here. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta for Windows, Mac or Linux.

Android version

The Android version is open for tests! You'll need a powerful android device to do the calculations on the device, but you should at least be able to read frequencies and meditations on just about any decent device. Install via Play Store (it's still 1.15 there)

Witamy w BioCoherence! ¡Bienvenido a BioCoherence! Willkommen bei BioCoherence!

3 new languages in the app, and the book is also translated (currently under review).

The user webinar series continues

We just recorded episode 7 (the body screens). Today: the Mind screens. Check the user seminar archives and join us each Thursday at 4PM GMT+1: biocoherence.net/userseminar.

Update highlights: 

  • 3 new languages: Polish, Spanish, German. (All is translated except the audio: the meditations texts are translated but the audio is not yet available, it will come later).
  • prevalence: you can now filter by biomarker system in the prevalence screen (the systems selector in in the menu).
  • frequency program export: duration of the generated audio file limited to about 10 minutes to export quickly (and not crash).
  • new direct access to the ongoing 21 day meditation from the Home Screen 
  • bug corrected: ticket would not submit from some languages with special characters.

Priorities and resources

  • Better algorithm to detect all priorities
  • Fix for the "low resource score" for "recipes" glitch (the points resources score were not transferred to the recipes, leading to a faulty evaluation for the recipes with low resources score).
  • Negative momentums are not longer picked as resources by the algorithm.
  • updated algorithm for resources, that now takes intention, attention and horizon in the evaluation. It leads to a better identification of the main resources. This will enhance the main resources results, and the main priorities with "low resources score". To clarify, the resource score comes from petal, links, intention, attention and horizon.

Lists

  • you can now read the entire text of a meditation list item by clicking on a meditation, and then on the description that appears on top of the list.



And various bug fixes and graphic improvements.

As usual, we WANT your feedback!

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.15
Dear friends,

Version 1.15 is here. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta for Windows, Mac or Linux.
The good news is that an Android version will soon be available. It's up and running, and testing on the Play Store will begin in the next few days. Don't expect miracles on basic android devices, you'll need a powerful android device to do the calculations on the device, but you should at least be able to read frequencies and meditations on just about any decent device.

The user webinar series continues

Check the user seminar archives and join us each Thursday at 4PM GMT+1 (winter time since a few days here!): biocoherence.net/userseminar. Today: the Energy screens.

Update highlights: Apple Watch import, meditation optimisations...

  • new Home Screen for first users, with direct Apple Watch import and how-to.
  • quick open: no long calculation is made unless you enter in the Understand or Analyze screens. This means opening a file for a user is now super quick. Heavy calculations are delayed until you need them for body maps or graphs.

Balance

  • pre-load of the day's guidances to get offline asap.
  • revamp of the balance screen.
  • preview of the 21-day journey, and report of the past days.
  • There is now a progress bar indicating the daily progress in the file list.

Priorities

  • better algorithm to detect all priorities. Bugs fixed, too. Also, negative drives are not longer picked as resources by the algorithm.





And various bug fixes and graphic improvements.

As usual, we WANT your feedback!

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.14
Dear friends,

Version 1.14 is here. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta for Windows, Mac or Linux.

The user webinar series continues

Check the user seminar archives and join us each Thursday at 4PM GMT+2: biocoherence.net/userseminar. Next Thursday (tomorrow...): create and test with lists.

Update highlights: remote tests, sleep mode, progression curves...

  • new option to switch between "play" (decluttered menu) and "understand" (complete menu) on the Home Screen of a report. 
  • new declutterred Home Screen for users that come from a Pro invitation. The Home Screen shows his reports, and the open report now proposes "Play" by default: PDF, frequencies, meditation; and record a test if needed.
  • better share flow from a Pro to a user: the current report is immediately send to the cloud, and if modifications, updates needed to be sent again the cloud are now displayed on top of the screen. There is now an alert on both sides if a report is updated by the other side, prompting to sync with the cloud.
  • List pre-evaluation is now immediately displayed if a scan exists. 
  • Ask for test is now active: a Pro can ask for a remote user to test locally the selected items. As the user opens his app, the test elements are ready to test with his sensor, anywhere in the world, using a real local ECG measurement. The results are sent back to the Pro through our Cloud. (next steps: notification sent to the user that will update the report and open it when clicked. Without notification, the Pro should send an invite to the user, and the user will open the report that will prompt him to update from the cloud).

Balance

  • better insertion of protocol frequencies in the meditation.
  • new screen, with buttons on the bottom and new options in the screen.
  • new daily progression, with meditation changing every day.
  • new graphics in Balance, with the progression of each priority in a nice curve. Display of today's curves, or all priorities curves. 
  • New end choice: "sleep" or "awake". For "sleep", 132 new audio guidance endings, with a long fadeout, and different evaluation of priorities.

Frequencies

  • New loop player in frequencies: loop on a single block (one physiology program and its related protocols, playing again and again until you stop, to push strongly on a particular intended effect). Only available if protocols are added to a physiology program.

Report flow between Pro and User

  • Usually a report is started with a scan or a test on the Pro's Sensor, and decisions are made by the Pro: resources, priorities, frequencies, protocols, comments, etc.
  • The Pro then shares with the User. When clicking "share with the user", the report is immediately sent to our secure Cloud and made available this instant to the user. 
  • If this is a new user, the Pro sends an invite to the user. If not, the user simply starts his app. If both cases, the user logs with his email (that the Pro has entered in his account) and immediately sees the report, and can import it and open it.
  • If the Pro amends the report, he will be prompted to sync it with the cloud at the end of his modifications. This will update the report on the cloud, and the User will see a hint to sync his locally saved report with the cloud.
  • If the User amends the report (usually by recording a re-evaluation or performing a test prepared by the Pro), the same happens with the Pro, that sees a prompt to sync it with the cloud the next time he tries to open it.

Report started by a User

  • in some cases the User can be the one that starts a report, by doing a new recording. In this case, the User has the ability to share it with his Pro (if he has no Pro, he can choose a Pro from the Pro directory first). The Pro will the receive the User in his contacts lists, and can import the report from the cloud and start working on it. When the Pro is done, he just has to click "sync with cloud" and the report is sent back to the cloud, with a prompt to sync it on the user side.



And various bug fixes and graphic improvements.

As usual, we WANT your feedback!

Buy on Amazon (Kindle e-book or Paperback, English and French editions)

Now, back to the week's update. 

Update highlights:

Biomarkers:
  • There is no zoom anymore on the top of the biomarker session evolution screen. The switch from play/pause is now controlling the zoom of this graph, along with the ones in frequency, harmony and the new one below. In 'stop' mode, all graphs display the average value for each biomarker, and the whole recording. In 'play' mode, the values are shown at the time of the play head position, and the graphs are zoomed to 50 beats. Just move the play head position to scroll through them. In 'stop' mode with several parts, the zoom also automatically adapts to the current part.
  • New graph in Spectrum: "Polygraph". This screen mainly uses academic biomarkers. This is a convenient way to see in a glance e.g. the VHF, HF, LF and VHF proportions, and a linear graph of up to 7 important curves. This can be used in real time during recording, as all screens (just switch screen during a recording). All these markers come from the academic research on ECGs.
    You can display up to 7 bands of your choice, in parallel or centered on the same line.
    • In "Bands" mode, the 7 lines are: Bpm, HRV, Mayer waves, VHF, HF, LF and VLF.
    • In "Ratios" mode, the 7 lines are: SDNN (Total power), SI (Stress index), IC (Index of Centralisation), LF/HF (Power, vago-sympatethic interaction), LF/VLF (Relax), VLF/HF (Stress) and VLF+HF (Global activity).
    • In "Systems" mode: CNS, Ortho, Symp, Para, IRSA, Immunity, HRV.
    • In "Brainwaves": Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Beta1, Beta2, Gamma.
  • If you do research with this graph, it could be the basis for new insights or new biomarkers. In addition, you can analyse any biomarker in its timeline and with events on the biomarker session evolution screen. 
Contact management:
  • The photo import bug is fixed. Remember, you have to confirm a photo to actually import it.
Meditations:
  • Meditation duration is now dynamically set according to the user's choice.
  • Meditations are now dynamically changing every day. You can set as many priorities as wanted, and they will be included each one in turn in the daily meditation, as needed. Default daily duration is about 30 minutes, and can be changed by the user.
Priorities: 
  • Update on the fourth algorithm is now available: "low resource score". 
Frequencies: 
  • Duration of physiology program set when a protocol is added to a physiology program.
And various bug fixes and graphic improvements.

As usual, we WANT your feedback!

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.12
Dear friends,

1.12 will add some functions and enhance some screens. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta for Windows, Mac or Linux. We've tested it extensively but you never know with bugs, so if you see one in the wild, please use the in-app feedback/bug report (the last entry in the menu) so that we have all the info to fix them quickly. 

Also, check the user seminar archives here and join us each Thursday at 4PM GMT+2: ./userseminar

Update highlights:

General functions: 
  • Confidentiality mode, to blur all names and photos on the screen.
  • General speed enhancements on older devices. Don't expect miracles, the app is still power-hungry. As a general rule, there should be no lag in navigation; if there is, please use a better computer.
  • We don't automatically save recordings anymore if they are short.
  • All texts are now translatable (and translated), including previously hard-coded texts like meridian/points descriptions, MTC recipes etc. We also fixed a bug in Korean where titles were truncated.
  • For your support requests, ticket answer info and management directly in the app.
  • Bluetooth request is delayed until first effective use, instead of first app launch. This is because the app is only allowed to ask for your approval once. If you say no, there is no way to allow the app to request Bluetooth again, you have to go to the systems preferences and find a way to check the acceptance - or just reinstall the app... For this reason, there is a new message in the Bluetooth panel, if by mistake the initial request had been denied.
  • "Read Manual" now opens in your browser. That also allows downloads of the PDF manuals.
Biomarkers:
  • New "prevalence" screen, to list all biomarkers by petal state. This can help identify patterns and better understand the general image of a scan.
Contact management:
  • Edit your own data from the home page now leads to "my account".
  • Birth date and notes are now hidden by default. Click on "more infos" to show them. We don't use this info for now, it is only for your reference. We will also add height, weight and some other health data for future age-, height- and weight-related biomarkers.
Frequency program:
  • Durations are now expressed in Elfie values.
  • Total export duration in .wav or .mp3 is automatically adjusted for very long programs, as a too long audio file might crash the app. Exports are limited to about 30 minutes, with an automatic adjustment of all programs to fit the available possible duration.
  • Exports defaults to mp3 in one-clic. If you cancel the mp3 part by clicking "stop encoding", it will propose you to export the .wav instead. The whole process is done in background and you can use the app meanwhile, but don't reduce the app or hide it while it exports, as this will result in the app losing computing resources and the export taking ages. 
Report:
  • New button in the report tools to send the PDF by mail to the customer in 1 clic. The PDF is uploaded to our cloud and the mail is sent from our server, so the sender is reports@biocoherence.net, not you. If you want to be the sender, you have to use the "share" function, or save it and attach it to your regular email app.
  • PDF export and save now works on Windows, Mac and Linux. Additionally, you can export as .htm, which is a modifiable format, if you want to edit it.
Meditations:
  • The French voices are now entirely available. (the English voices will be cleaned later this month to fix the small glitches)
  • Lists with type "Meditation": if you select multiple items from the same meditation list, they will be played sequentially, one per day. This shows on the report and in the meditation text. In this way, the meditation also evolves every day in a progression.
Priorities: 
  • A fourth algorithm is now available: "low resource score". When you explore priorities, this will be presented first (before "in sync"," interesting energy" and "interesting agitation"), and will show the elements with the lowest resource score (the contrary of the resources panel, so to say).
Personality, momentums and drives:
  • some enhancements in these important screens:
  • Personality: now shows some information texts to explain the 4 axis and the position in the scan, and also the stability or flexibility of this position.
  • Momentum: restraints are now split in 2: geopathy and biology.
  • Drives: the average between the positive part and the negative part of each emotion is now clearly shown. You can now clearly see the baseline between the positive and the negative part of each bar. More enhancements to come for this screen, because it might be one of the screens you end up spending the most time - it is so interesting...
Manual
  • the manual will be updated with the contents of the user webinars. This will be done each week after each user seminar...

As usual, we WANT your feedback!

All the best,
Médéric

Our user webinar series starts: each thursday at 16:00 (EU time), starting tomorrow

 Dear BioCoherence users,

As promised, we are starting our weekly User webinar series that will take place each Thursday at 16:00 European time (GMT+2) in English, starting tomorrow!

You can join us for free in the Zoom call (the link is on biocoherence.net/userseminar). All calls are recorded and will be available in the app for all users, so if you don't want to appear in the recording, please don't turn your camera on. 

We plan to make each Thursday webinar on only one of the app feature, digging from start to finish on its concepts, usage and applications. The duration should be 45 minutes max.

Each Thursday webinar is open to questions, so you can prepare some questions and they will be answered during the zoom.

We are looking to see you each Thursday! And if you can't make it, everything will be archived on biocoherence.net/userseminar (you will find the weekly invite link there too).

FIRST SEMINAR
The first seminar will be on making a new record, and reading resources and priorities.

BioCoherence 1.11
Dear friends,

It's that magical time again: a new update!

1.11.7 will continue with guided meditations and improve recording and frequency exports. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta for Windows, Mac or Linux. We've tested it extensively but you never know with bugs, so if you see one in the wild, please use the in-app feedback/bug report (the last entry in the menu- so that we have all the info to fix them quickly. 

Including:

Meditations module: 
  • Improvements in interface, cloud loading and software. English is complete; French is almost complete and will be in approximately one week. 
  • Please note: this is still a preview and some texts have small glitches. We are still refining and polishing all texts.
  • Improvement in certain part, like meridians and chakras (now with specific sounds), chords ...
Frequency module:
  • Add protocols directly from the frequency program page: improvements in protocol selection.
  • Export in .wav or .mp3 the frequency program. Now defaults to mp3. It works better, and even, it does not crash anymore in certain circumstances, which is definitely better. Also, the export(save as) function now works on versions for Windows, Mac and Linux.
  • More frequencies added and played during testing and harmonisation on biomarker and protocols.
Report:
  • Print and save as now works on versions for Windows, Mac and Linux. (saves as .htm and not .pdf for now).
Lists:
  • Many behind-the-scene enhancements in cloud lists management (pictures, dynamic loading, invitation code for a private list...). Picture is now displayed in big during the individual test.
  • On large screens (computers), lists are presented in a new multi-column view.
  • Pictures are now front and big. Try the herbs, essential oils or aromas lists!
recording:
  • we've tackled the various Bluetooth problems when recording and it seems much more reliable now. It even seems Bluetooth now works on Linux. But who is on Linux here, except Antoine? :)
Various:
  • quickopen files are entirely recalculated in they are from a former version, to take new algorithms and biomarkers into account.
  • much quicker interface on iPad, Windows, Mac and Linux versions.
  • various fixes and improvements (particularly in the Bluetooth and recording section).
  • various blockages and crashes fixed.
As usual, we WANT your feedback!

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.10
Dear friends,

It's that magical time again: a new update!

1.10.7 will introduce you to guided meditations. Update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download now on biocoherence.net/beta . We've tested it extensively but you never know with bugs, so if you see one in the wild, please use the in-app feedback/bug report (the last entry in the menu- so that we have all the info to fix them quickly.

Including:

Meditations module: 
  • Guided meditations preview: actual audio guidance (in English only for now). almost 4000 custom-made audio guided meditations parts in each language.
  • Please note: this is still a preview and a lot of texts have small glitches. We are still refining and polishing all texts and the actual correct guidances will be available later in the month.
  • Includes all specific sounds, binaural beats and frequencies, chords with breath work (we have more than 450 chords in our chord detector and we play the one that has been measured in the client's energy), and some specific sounds linked to meridians, chakras, etc. (my goal is to have different ambiences for the different parts: intro, organs, chakras, meridians, drives, emotions etc.)
  • You can target the desired duration of the meditation.
Frequency module:
  • Add protocols directly from the frequency program page.
  • Export in .wav or .mp3 the frequency program. You can then use this audio file to balance the frequencies through any audio player, the client's smartphone, or use any kind of transducer to apply them electrically or magnetically locally from any audio jack output.
  • In any case, the complete frequency program is inserted in the audio meditation, as binaural beats or frequencies.
Progress:
  • you can now add as many "favorites" biomarkers as needed to see them all in the progress page.
Lists:
  • New list type: Product. Build AI-assisted product  lists: automatic product contents retrieval; automatic organ effects assessment via our AI cloud. Also, automatic preselection of suggested images. You can then pre-evaluate with the client's scan in all this product catalog, and confirm with individual tests.
  • New list type: Meditation, with AI-enhanced writing and request for audio file (the meditation, if approved, will be available in the same voice as the other meditations). It will event try to find what organs might be balanced with this particular meditation. You can then pre-evaluate them, confirm them with an individual test if needed, and add them in 1 clic to the client's meditation.
Various:
  • the app is now available as a preview in Korean (corrections pending). We are open to suggestions as to what new languages we should work on for the interface, please tell us!
  • various fixes and improvements (particularly in the Bluetooth and recording section).
I am particularly happy with this new custom-meditation tool. This is what I tried to do already in 2017 but it didn't work really. Now, it does! In essence, you can add an item to your meditations list, provide a title, just describe what the meditation should do and the necessary steps to go through, and our AI will write an audio guidance made to be inserted into the client's meditation. You review it and, if you are happy with it, you just click a button to request the audio. A few days later, it becomes available to be inserted in a meditation.
I created a first public list "energy techniques" with meditation bits I wrote back in 2013 and it's amazing. You can now do EFT or EMDR into a meditation and then work on your priorities. It's mind-blowing, but I'm ready to be even more mind-blowed with all the meditation ideas you will come with!



All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.8.8
Dear friends,

the update to 1.8.8 is available... update via TestFlight (it might need one day or more to appear, you will receive a notification from TestFlight when available) or download on ./beta

Including: 
  • Reports: 
    - much quicker processing
    - some biomarkers were not clickable. Now you can click on all biomarkers, including recipes, to get more info (it opens the bottom biomarker panel, that also includes direct links to the relevant scan pages)
    - new top menu for quick access to report sections. 
    - possibility to share/make pdf/print only the active section as selected in the top menu. To print the whole report, just click "Whole" (the first element in the top sections list) before printing.
    - new report subtitles
Also, to the question "wow! but how?", I wrote a blog post here. It is a bit technical so Stephen suggested I tuned it down. I added the tuned-down version as an intro... tell me what you think :)

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.8.2
Dear friends,

the update to 1.8.2 is available... update via TestFlight or download on ./beta

Including: 
  • Tests on home page (you can now start by a test). For instance, you can start with any test and then directly go to the Scan pages when the test is done, as the scan will be calculated anyway at the end of the recording. When you start with a test, there is no pre-evaluation as there is no recording, but there will be a post-evaluation based on the recording, once finished.
  • Balance page improvements. That is only layout for now, the meditation/frequencies part is still under development.
  • File duration added in list. 
  • Blank menu bug fixed, parts calculations for comparison fixed, and some minor bugs. 
  • Added 2 or 4 family accounts for Me Essential and Me. Based on a user suggestion, it seems fair to allow family members to have a distinct account even in the Me subscription. Besides, it allows Me users to test the Client management system.
  • New menu entry: Open manual.
  • Tutorial videos in English are all online. You can access the videos directly in-app or on ./tutorials
  • Share: new "save on cloud" menu element. For now, all recordings are kept private on your device, unless you click "save on cloud"; the recordings are then sent to our own secure server and become available for your other devices or to share with a client or a Pro.
  • Better test measurement visualisation. There is now a text while calibration, a countdown of test items, and some layout improvements. The record part is also now always on the bottom part of the screen.
  • Better Bluetooth connect panel. Still some improvements to come. 
  • Better biomarker lists and links on chakras. We added some information on chakras - there are still plenty of ideas and data for future improvements.

All the best,
Médéric

BioCoherence 1.7
Dear friends,

the weekly update (1.7.9) is available... update via TestFlight or download on https://biocoherence.net/beta

Including: manual and help on home page. Lang change changes meridians and precomputed biomarkers too. Better Bluetooth indicator on Windows and Mac (the "bluetooth off" state was skipped; now it is properly tested). Improvements in Test lists edit: images on lists and list items, and better list items action edit. You can also now place list items on an image, opening the door for testing list items placed on your maps, 2D plans, logical graphs etc. (more will come in a next update on the Test section).

And, at last, tutorial videos in English are coming (not all yet but it is going on; around 10 are online, and we expect to finish 25 of them next week). When all is done, we can expand to other languages. You can access the videos directly in-app or on https://biocoherence.net/tutorials and, while not complete, see the existing ones directly in the YouTube playlist.
I've also clarified the biocoherence.net homepage on the fact that it is possible to do a remote scan with the sensor.

--

Thanks for all your feedback! I'm eager to make things better with your ideas and remarks and I really appreciate you taking the time to tell us what you feel or need regarding any aspect of the app, so that we can improve it. You can even use the "ideas and questions" menu, that allows you to send us a screenshot of any page that you can annotate. 

About that: Stephen is now in the team and will handle English-speaking support and he could get in touch with you regarding your needs. You can write him directly if you wish via the contact form.

All the best,
Médéric

                Wow! but how?

                How BioCoherence Technology Works

                Wow! But how? This is the main question new users ask after their first scan. 

                Let me explain in simple terms. If you prefer going deeper, there is a more in-depth explanation after this.

                Quick explanation

                From Raw Recording to Insights

                BioCoherence starts with an ECG (electrocardiogram) recording, using a medically-certified sensor. While primarily recording the heart's electrical activity, the sensor also captures the electrical activity of the entire body, from left finger to right finger. This comprehensive data shows up as the main ECG recording, dominated by the heart's rhythm but also displaying other subtle electrical activities.

                Data Processing and Analysis

                Raw Data to Features: The initial ECG recording includes both the main heart rhythm and other electrical frequencies. Automatic filtering excludes problematic beats (e.g., due to movement), allowing for accurate analysis.

                Multi-Level Analysis:

                1. First-Order Analysis:
                  • Extracts primary data from the ECG, such as specific frequencies (VLF, LF, HF) and time-based intervals (HRV).
                  • Uses extensive published research to derive academic biomarkers.
                1. Second-Order Analysis:
                  • Analyzes the first-order data to uncover new properties, such as harmonics and entropy.
                  • Calculates additional biomarkers infos, including qualities like attention and intent.
                1. Third-Order Analysis:
                  • Identifies links and resonances between elements, showing energetic relationships (e.g., between organs).
                  • Uses complex algorithms to calculate TCM recipes and linked elements.
                1. Fourth-Order Analysis:
                  • Computes resources and priorities, indicating which biomarkers are most significant.
                  • Integrates findings into a coherent overview of the user's health.

                User Benefits:

                • Scan Module: Provides detailed biomarker analysis, body maps and graphs.
                • Test Module: Offers real-time biofeedback and an open creation system.
                • Balance Module: Generates custom meditations and reports.

                Day-to-Day Value: Focuses on higher-order information (resources, priorities) that offer the most practical insights for users, while still allowing access to all detailed data.

                In conclusion, BioCoherence uses advanced mathematical algorithms to transform raw ECG data into valuable health insights, offering a multi-level analysis that reveals comprehensive information about the body's electrical activity. This innovative approach provides users with actionable data to enhance their well-being.


                In-depth explanation

                Let's dig in-depth... I will try and answer as deeply as possible without entering technical grounds…

                In the beginning was the raw recording

                BioCoherence starts with an ECG recording. ECG stands for « electrocardiogram » which means we use a medically-certified device (our Sensor) that is primarily meant to record the heart's electrical activity. But, there is a catch: the heart is the most powerful, but is not the only organ in the body to have an electrical activity. We know the brain does (it show on an EEG, an electroencephalogram), but in fact, every organ, every atom, every system has a magnetic and electrical activity. As we measure from left finger to right finger, the sensor records a lot more than just the heart's beat rate impulse: it records the whole body's magnetic and electrical activity.

                So, the first thing we have is a lot of electrical information, which shows as the main ECG recording. This is clearly dominated by the heart beat's main rhythm, but there are a lot of things going under this main activity, and it shows in BioCoherence as the gray line vibrating around the main wave. This is where we will find data to rebuild thousands of biomarkers's activity.

                You can see it on the frequency pages: near the bottom of the frequency graph you always have a dark line which is the most important frequency (the beat rate) but you can also see a lot of other frequencies present in the recording. This frequency graph is another way to see the recording wave, by transforming a time-based information into a frequency-based graph; but this is still the same raw information.

                We added some automatic filtering to exclude the beats that are problematic (because, for instance, the user moved and the electrical signal was off the charts for a few seconds), and at that point, we can start analysing this recording to extract features.

                Emergent properties 

                In systems theory, there is an important concept called « emergent properties ». To be brief, it states that, with each new level of complexity appear new properties that are not directly derived from the properties of the lower level. For instance, you can mix 2 highly flammable gases (oxygen and hydrogen) and get a stable liquid (water) that has properties impossible to guess from these gases. This is why we do a multi-level-order analysis, each level using the properties of the former level, and each level uncovering new relationships that could not be existing on the former level.

                All of this is made purely with mathematics. Contrary to the majority of other « energetic assessment devices » that are mostly based on random-number generators, the algorithms in BioCoherence are purely based on maths, and so the results will always be exactly the same for a recording. In fact, the whole calculation is made again each time you open a recording.

                Then comes a first-order analysis

                Now, our algorithms will do a first-order analysis on this raw data, to extract first-order information. This can come, for instance, from specific frequency or frequencies ranges (like for VLF, LF or HF) or time-based interval analysis (like for HRV).

                We used a lot of published research by a very wide variety of ECG researchers that don't usually speak together to come up with wide lists of informations that we extracted at this level.

                This first-order analysis gives un mainly the academic biomarkers, as this is usually where official researches stop. This is because signal processing is usually quite limited in medical research*, whereas I applied musical signal processing which is far more advanced. As DSPs (digital signal processors) replaced analog treatment in music since the 90s, an enormous amount of research has been done to understand, emulate and process digital recordings with many tools like sound effects or various tools to adjust a digital musical content in real time. This is basically the same algorithms that we use in BioCoherence: advanced maths that sound engineers know in music processing but nobody uses in medical applications.

                *: on a side note, everybody jokes that a peer-reviewed paper was published in 1994 explaining a very novel method to calculate the area under the curve (pompously called AUC) of an electrocardiogram. This was deemed sufficiently interesting to be published in a peer-reviewed journal. But, as anybody with a bit of math training knows, this is called an « integral », is learned in college, and has been discovered many centuries ago. Nonetheless, most official research is on this level of maths.

                Things start to be interesting in second-order analysis

                Once we have this first-order data, we get new properties and we can do several second-order analysis on these new properties. For instance, as a first-order analysis we calculated a spectrum: thanks to a mathematical algorithm called an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform), we can display the raw recording as frequencies instead of a wave. Now, In a second-order analysis we will calculate a Cepstrum (which is a 2nd order FFT) that allows us to extract not the frequencies, but the harmonics in the signal: in a word, it extracts the frequencies that resonate harmonically together. Using these results, we will the obtain some new biomarkers.

                • An example of another 2nd order analysis is the calculation of entropy (or « agitation ») of each biomarker. In a word, it shows how a specific biomarker is static or agitated.
                • Another examples of 2nd order analysis are the qualities we show of the right of a biomarker, like attention, intention and horizon (properties extracted from their musical qualities), and main cycles.

                There are many 2nd order analysis done on the signal, and so we obtain many new biomarkers informations. But we will not stop here, because this new level uncovers some new interesting properties that did not exist before.

                Again, we used a lot of published research by a very wide variety of researchers, now not on ECG data, but on therapy-specific data like Ayurveda, TCM, energetic assessment or modern medical science.

                A third-order analysis: links and resonances

                Now comes another level of complexity with its new marvels. Using all the 2nd order new data we have, we can calculate new properties, as for instance, links between elements. These links are shown everywhere in the app, like on graphs or body maps; they allow us to understand the main energetic relationships between, say, organs: if an organ is linked to another, it can indicate there is an energetic transfer in place, and one is helped or helping the other.

                These links are computed with a fairly complex multidimensional algorithm that uses advanced vector maths to extract common resonances between elements. But we tried to hide this complexity and render only the result, which are clear links between the elements.

                • As part of the process, we calculated tons of data and it shows as « link qualities » and linked elements for each biomarker.
                • Another 3rd order example is the computation of TCM recipes. We reverse-engineered the TCM recipes logic, that uses several acupuncture points to cure specific symptoms. By reversing it, we say: if these points are linked by these 3rd-order properties, it might indicate the associated symptom of their group.

                Again, we used published research on therapy-specific data. Apart from TCM recipes, the links logic come from the work of many practitioners we worked with, that try and go up the causal chain to find root causes.

                Why not go further?

                OK, while we are at it, let's continue with these new emergent properties, and do a 4th level analysis. With all these new data points, we can now calculate resources and priorities. Resources are calculated by a 4th-level algorithm that uses information from all below levels to compute a single « resource value », as shown on the resources page (when you click on a resource to change it if needed). It indicates how a biomarker in a given family is « at the top of the generosity chain ». The resources theory comes from Christine Degoy's work and is much more explained in her forthcoming books.

                Priorities, on another hand, are somehow the underdogs, the « bottom of the food chain » parts. They are extracted from 3rd-order informations and below, according to energy, agitation or coherence in a given biomarker family. As we computed energy, agitation and coherence, we can now put as priorities the too low energy, too high energy, too static and too agitated elements, and also the coherent systems that might indicate something is going on.

                And now, let's dance in reverse

                Let's go back to our H2O water example. When you first see water, you don't analyse it from its gaseous components. You only see the top-level-order properties: that you can drink it; that you can swim in it; that it can mix with other elements, etc. Usually when we see a complex system, we see it from outside and we only see the top-level-order properties. And, each time we uncovered an additional level of order, we realised how useful it was for everyday users. So, in BioCoherence, we tend to reverse the importance of the information and start with resources (a 4th order information), priorities (a 3rd order information), biomarker flower (a 2nd order information) and biomarker qualities (a 3rd order information). It is still possible to go down to the first-level order information (the wave and spectrum) but what brings the most day-to-day value are the upper levels.

                The complexity orders are shown through the top right arrows on the home screen (they can be clicked to redo the math at each level), but the menu logic (and the report order) is reversed: it starts with the upper levels (balance: resources, priorities and report) as this is usually the most important information to start with.

                And that's all for the scan part.

                Next will come: Tests, and Balance.
