OPTIMIZED ANATOMICAL STRUCTURE OF INTEREST LABELLING

The present application describes a system (100) and method for detecting and labeling structures of interest. The system includes a current patient study database (102) containing a current patient study (200) with clinical contextual information (706). The system also includes an image metadata processing engine (118) configured to extract metadata for preparing an input for an anatomical structure classifier (608), a natural language processing engine (120) configured to extract clinical context information (706) from the prior patient documents, an anatomical structure detection and labeling engine (718), and a display device (108) configured to display findings from the current patient study. The anatomical structure detection and labeling engine (718) is configured to identify and label one or more structures of interest (716) from the extracted metadata and clinical context information (706). The processor (112) is also configured to aggregate series level data. The method detects, label and prioritize anatomical structures (710). Specifically, once patient information is received from the current patient study (108), the labeled anatomical structures (710) and the high risk anatomical structures (714) are combined to form an optimized prioritized list of structures of interest (716).

MULTI-MODAL SENSOR DATA FUSION FOR PERCEPTION SYSTEMS

A method includes fusing multi-modal sensor data from a plurality of sensors having different modalities. At least one region of interest is detected in the multi-modal sensor data. One or more patches of interest are detected in the multi-modal sensor data based on detecting the at least one region of interest. A model that uses a deep convolutional neural network is applied to the one or more patches of interest. Post-processing of a result of applying the model is performed to produce a post-processing result for the one or more patches of interest. A perception indication of the post-processing result is output.

Automatic Dip Picking in Borehole Images

The techniques and device provided herein relate to receiving, via a processor, image data representative of a borehole of a well. The technique may include generating dequantized image data based on the image data, such that the dequantized image data filters one or more artifacts present in a Hough transformed version of the image data. One or more dip orientations (inclination and azimuth) associated with one or more formation dips present in the image data may be determined based on the dequantized image data. The technique may also include performing an a-contration validation algorithm for for the one or more formation dips to verify whether at least a formation dip having the or one of the possible dip orientation is present at a predetermined measured depth in the image data..

TOOTH CROWN INFORMATION ACQUISITION METHOD

A normal vector or a curvature at each of a plurality of vertexes that are included in data relating to an oral cavity shape including a tooth crown shape of at least one tooth and define the oral cavity shape is acquired. Then, a vertex group that defines the tooth crown shape of the at least one tooth is extracted from the plurality of vertexes based on the acquired normal vectors or curvatures. Further, the extracted vertex group is outputted as tooth crown shape information that specifies a tooth crown portion in the oral cavity shape. Consequently, automatic construction of a database for a tooth crown shape can be implemented.

20170372175 · 2017-12-28 · ·

A method for evaluating quality of tone-mapping image based on exposure analysis is provided, which explores the exposure properties on each area of the high dynamic range image utilizing the pre-exposure method and divides the high dynamic range image into three parts of an easy overexposed area, an easy underexposed area and an easy natural-exposed area, wherein different quality characteristics are extracted in different areas, which is capable of ensuring that the follow-up quality characteristic extraction is more targeted. The present invention takes the difference of distortion between the tone-mapping image and the conventional image into account, and extracts image characteristics such as the abnormal exposure rate, the underexposed residual energy, the overexposed residual energy and the exposure color index, so as to accurately reflect the quality degradation of the tone-mapping image.
