Differential expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) are used to diagnose diseases including neurological diseases, inflammatory diseases, rheumatic diseases, and autoimmune diseases. Machine learning systems are used to identify lncRNAs or eRNAs having differential expression correlated with certain disease states.

A system, method and computer program product for accessing content based on an image. The method comprises comparing an image to a database of images, each of the images of the database being associated with at least one corresponding audio track, identifying those ones images of the database that correspond to the image, and identifying the at least one corresponding audio track that corresponds to the identified images. In one example aspect, the method also comprises presenting the audio track to a user. Corresponding metadata also can be presented. The images may be classified by, e.g., genre, musical album, concept, or the like, and, in cases where an input image is determined to belong to any such classes, audio content and/or metadata relating thereto are identified and presented to the user.

This disclosure describes systems and methods for using an estimator to produce values for dependent variables of streaming objects based on values of independent variables of the objects. The systems and methods may include continuously tuning the estimator based on any objects received with pre-populated values for the dependent variables.

A vehicular trailer hitching assist system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle. During a reversing maneuver of the vehicle toward a trailer that is spaced from the vehicle at a distance from the vehicle, the camera views at least a portion of a front profile of the trailer. An electronic control unit (ECU) includes an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera. The vehicular trailer hitching assist system, via image processing at the ECU of image data captured by the camera during the reversing maneuver of the vehicle toward the trailer, determines a plurality of landmarks corresponding to the front profile of the trailer. Based at least in part on the determined plurality of landmarks, the vehicular trailer hitching assist system determines location of a trailer coupler of the trailer.

There is described a computer-implemented method and system for classifying images, the computer-implemented method comprising: receiving an image to be classified, generating a vector representation of the image to be classified using an image embedding method, comparing the vector representation of the image to predefined vector representations of the predefined image categories, and identifying a relevant category amongst the predefined image categories based on the comparison, the relevant category being associated with the image to be classified and outputting the relevant category.

Identifying insect species integrates image processing, feature selection, unsupervised clustering, and a support vector machine (SVM) learning algorithm for classification. Results with a total of 101 mosquito specimens spread across nine different vector carrying species demonstrate high accuracy in species identification. When implemented as a smart-phone application, the latency and energy consumption were minimal. The currently manual process of species identification and recording can be sped up, while also minimizing the ensuing cognitive workload of personnel. Citizens at large can use the system in their own homes for self-awareness and share insect identification data with public health agencies.

Techniques are provided for recognition of activity in a sequence of video image frames that include depth information. A methodology embodying the techniques includes segmenting each of the received image frames into a multiple windows and generating spatio-temporal image cells from groupings of windows from a selected sub-sequence of the frames. The method also includes calculating a four dimensional (4D) optical flow vector for each of the pixels of each of the image cells and calculating a three dimensional (3D) angular representation from each of the optical flow vectors. The method further includes generating a classification feature for each of the image cells based on a histogram of the 3D angular representations of the pixels in that image cell. The classification features are then provided to a recognition classifier configured to recognize the type of activity depicted in the video sequence, based on the generated classification features.
