Heart condition determination method and system

The present invention relates to a method to provide a mean temporal spatial isochrone (TSI) path relating to an ECG feature (wave form) of interest, such as the activation of the heart from a single point (QRS), relative to the heart in a torso while using an ECG measurement from an ECG recording device. The method includes: receiving ECG measuring data from the ECG recording device; determining vector cardiogram (VCG) data; receiving a model of the heart, preferably with torso, as an input, preferably based on a request including request parameters; determining mean TSI data values representing the TSI path relating to an electrophysiological phase representing the ECG feature, the mean TSI providing a location within the heart representing the mean location of the ECG feature at the corresponding time; positioning the mean TSI path and preferably the vector cardiogram data points in the model of the heart and/or torso at an initial position; and rendering the model of the heart, preferably with torso, with the mean TSI path, preferably with VCG data related to the TSI, for displaying on a display screen for interpretation of the displayed rendering.

Enhancing pigmentation in dermoscopy images

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for modifying images of skin so as to reduce or enhance the appearance of component pigments, such as melanin and hemoglobin. A diffuse reflectance image of skin, such as a cross-polarized contact dermoscopy image, which conveys information regarding subsurface features of the skin, is processed so as to extract pigment distribution information, which is then used to correct the diffuse reflectance image, such as by reducing the appearance of melanin to allow better visualization of hemoglobin-related structures, such as vasculature. Alternatively, the diffuse reflectance image can be corrected so as to reduce the appearance of hemoglobin to allow better visualization of melanin-related structures.

DIRECTED CONTROL TRANSFER WITH AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

Techniques for cognitive analysis for directed control transfer with autonomous vehicles are described. In-vehicle sensors are used to collect cognitive state data for an individual within a vehicle which has an autonomous mode of operation. The cognitive state data includes infrared, facial, audio, or biosensor data. One or more processors analyze the cognitive state data collected from the individual to produce cognitive state information. The cognitive state information includes a subset or summary of cognitive state data, or an analysis of the cognitive state data. The individual is scored based on the cognitive state information to produce a cognitive scoring metric. A state of operation is determined for the vehicle. A condition of the individual is evaluated based on the cognitive scoring metric. Control is transferred between the vehicle and the individual based on the state of operation of the vehicle and the condition of the individual.
