APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING BEHAVIOR OF USER BASED ON IMAGE CONVERTED FROM SENSING DATA, AND METHOD FOR CONVERTING SENSING DATA INTO IMAGE
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a method for estimating the behavior of a user based on an image converted from sensing data. The apparatus for estimating the behavior of a user based on an image converted from sensing data includes memory for storing at least one program, and a processor for executing the program, wherein the program performs acquiring sensing data measured by one or more behavior measurement devices worn by the user, converting sensing data of the user obtained for a predetermined time period into images, and estimating the behavior of the user from the images of the user based on a pre-trained model.
METHOD FOR ASSESSING PITCHERS
The skeletal position of a pitcher at the moment of foot strike in the delivery of a pitch is compared against a plurality of skeletal positions, the plurality of skeletal positions being associated with a plurality of pitchers, each skeletal position being associated with the moment of foot strike in the delivery of a pitch. A value representative of a position of the pitch on a spectrum is provided, the spectrum being defined by a characteristic known about each of the pitchers of the plurality, the characteristic being Tommy John surgery or maximum fastball speed.
Imaging-based spirometry systems and methods
A spirometry system includes an imaging device configured to capture upper body movement images of a subject during inhalation and exhalation of the subject. The system further includes at least one controller configured to receive the captured images from the imaging device and, based upon the received images, determine at least one of an image-based spirometry flow-volume curve for the subject or an image-based spirometry parameter for the subject.
Automatic graph scoring for neuropsychological assessments
Systems and methods of the present invention provide for: receiving a digital image data; modifying the digital image data to reduce a width of a feature within the digital image data; executing a dimension reduction process on the feature; storing a feature vector comprising: at least one feature for each of the received digital image data, and a correct or incorrect label associated with each feature vector; selecting the feature vector from a data store; training a classification software engine to classify each feature vector according to the label; classifying the image data as correct or incorrect according to a classification software engine; and generating an output labeling a second digital image data as correct or incorrect.
Systems and methods for scanning a patient in an imaging system
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for scanning a patient in an imaging system. The imaging system may include at least one camera directed at the patient. The systems and methods may obtain a plurality of images of the patient that are captured by the at least one camera. Each of the plurality of images may correspond to one of a series of time points. The systems and methods may also determine a motion of the patient over the series of time points based on the plurality of images of the patient. The systems and methods may further determine whether the patient is ready for scan based on the motion of the patient, and generate control information of the imaging system for scanning the patient in response to determining that the patient is ready for scan.
CHEWING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
Provided are moving image obtaining means that obtains a moving image of a region including at least a mouth or a peripheral portion of the mouth in a face, analysis means that analyzes a chewing action based on the moving image of the region obtained by the moving image obtaining means, quality determination means that determines quality of the chewing action based on information of the chewing action analyzed by the analysis means, and extraction means that extracts assistance information corresponding to the chewing quality determined by the quality determination means, from chewing information storage means.
DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A VITAL SIGN OF A SUBJECT
The present invention relates to a device (100) for determining a vital sign of a subject by use of PPG. The device comprises a processing unit (110) configured to obtain multiple first detection signals derived from electromagnetic radiation (90) from multiple measurement spots (30) on a skin region (12) of the subject illuminated by one or more illumination spots (20), wherein the electromagnetic radiation (90) enters the skin region (12) at the one or more illumination spots (20) and exits the skin region (12) at the multiple measurement spots (30). The processing unit (110) further obtains 3D image information (130) of the skin region (12) which allows determining the actual spot distance (15) between the measurements spots (30) and an illumination spot (20), respectively. This information can be used to interpret the PPG signal more precisely as without having the 3D image information only a projected distance can be determined if the skin surface is tilted. Additionally, this allows averaging PPG signals derived from a homogenous skin area to improve PPG signal strength and reduce noise. A system (500) comprising such a device and a corresponding method are further described.
System and method for fabricating a dental restoration
A system for fabricating a dental restoration to restore a tooth at a restoration site in a dentition of a patient is disclosed. The dentition includes a restoration dental arch and an opposing dental arch. The restoration dental arch include the restoration site and the opposing dental arch is opposite the restoration dental arch. The system includes an impression apparatus, a motion capture apparatus, an interface apparatus, and a restoration design system. The impression apparatus is configured to capture an impression of the dentition of the patient. The motion capture apparatus is configured to capture a plurality of location data points that represent the locations of the opposing dental arch relative to the restoration dental arch. The interference model generation system is configured to generate an interference model for the restoration site. The restoration design system is for designing a restoration using the interference model.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREDICTING AND PREVENTING PATIENT DEPARTURES FROM BED
A method for monitoring a patient in a bed using a camera. The method includes identifying a boundary of the bed using data from the camera, identifying parts of the patient using data from the camera, and determining an orientation of the patient using the parts identified for the patient. The method further includes monitoring movement of the patient using the parts identified for the patient and computing a departure score indicating the likelihood of the patient departing the bed based on the orientation of the patient and the movement of the patient. The method further includes comparing the departure score to a predetermined threshold and generating a notification when the departure score exceeds the predetermined threshold.
