Two major treatment strategies employed in fighting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The choice of strategy is based on heterogeneous biomarkers expressed by the lung tumor tissue. A major challenge for molecular testing of these biomarkers is the insufficiency of biopsy specimens from patients with advanced NSCLC. Disclosed herein is a method for predicting a response to immune-checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. The method generally involves imaging the subject with positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18] fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography to produce .sup.18F-FDG PET/CT images of the tumor, analyzing the images using PET, CT, and Kulbek Leibler Divergence statistical (KLD) features or, alternatively using deep leaning such as Neural Networks; generating a radiomic signature from the identified features or Network characteristics; and computing a radiomic score based on the radiomic signature that is predictive of responsiveness to ICIs or TKIs.

An own-position estimating device for estimating an own-position of a moving body by matching a feature extracted from an acquired image with a database in which position information and the feature are associated with each other in advance, includes an estimating unit estimating the own-position of the moving body by matching the feature extracted by the extracting unit with the database, and a determination threshold value adjusting unit adjusting a determination threshold value for extracting the feature, in which the determination threshold value adjusting unit acquires the database in a state in which the determination threshold value is adjusted, and adjusts the determination threshold value on the basis of the determination threshold value linked to each of the position information items in the database, and the extracting unit extracts the feature from the image by using the determination threshold value adjusted by the determination threshold value adjusting unit.

A tree crown extraction method based on UAV multi-source remote sensing includes: obtaining a visible light image and LIDAR point clouds, taking a digital orthophoto map (DOM) and the LIDAR point clouds as data sources, using a method of watershed segmentation and object-oriented multi-scale segmentation to extract single tree crown information under different canopy densities. The object-oriented multi-scale segmentation method is used to extract crown and non-crown areas, and a tree crown distribution range is extracted with the crown area as a mask; a preliminary segmentation result of single tree crown is obtained by the watershed segmentation method based on a canopy height model; a brightness value of DOM is taken as a feature, the crown area of the DOM is performed secondary segmentation based on a crown boundary to obtain an optimized single tree crown boundary information, which greatly increases the accuracy of remote sensing tree crown extraction.

A system and method of detecting an image of a template object in a captured image may include comparing, by a processor, an image model of an imaged template object to multiple locations, rotations, and scales in the captured image. The image model may be defined by multiple model base point sets derived from contours of the imaged template object, where each model base point set inclusive of a plurality of model base points that are positioned at corresponding locations associated with distinctive features of the imaged template object. Each corresponding model base point of the model base point sets may (i) be associated with respective layers and (ii) have an associated gradient vector. A determination may be made as to whether and where the image of the object described by the image model is located in the captured image.

A method of processing an image, an electronic device, and a storage medium, which relate to the artificial intelligence field, in particular to fields of computer vision and intelligent transportation technologies. The method includes: determining at least one key frame image in a scene image sequence captured by a target camera; determining a camera pose parameter associated with each key frame image in the at least one key frame image, according to a geographic feature associated with the key frame image; and projecting each scene image in the scene image sequence to obtain a target projection image according to the camera pose parameter associated with the key frame image, so as to generate a scene map based on the target projection image. The geographic feature associated with any key frame image indicates localization information of the target camera at a time instant of capturing the corresponding key frame image.
