A method comprises identifying a representation of first statistical information in a document, identifying descriptive text that describes the first statistical information, determining whether the descriptive text accurately describes the first statistical information, and upon determination that the descriptive text does not accurately describe the first statistical information, generating alternative descriptive text that accurately describes the first statistical information.

An apparatus, system and method for regulating fluid flow are disclosed. The apparatus includes a flow rate sensor and a valve. The flow rate sensor uses images to estimate flow through a drip chamber and then controls the valve based on the estimated flow rate. The valve comprises a rigid housing disposed around the tube in which fluid flow is being controlled. Increasing the pressure in the housing controls the size of the lumen within the tube by deforming the tube, therefore controlling flow through the tube.

A character recognition method includes the following operations: determining that the image of character to be identified corresponds to a matching character of several registered characters according to several vector distances to be identified between a vector of an image of character to be identified and several vectors of several registered character images of several registered characters, and storing a matching vector distance between the vector of the image of character to be identified and a vector of the matching character by a processor; and storing a data of the matching character according to the image of character to be identified when the matching vector distance is less than a vector distance threshold by the processor.

Technologies and techniques for managing clinical images in electronic healthcare record systems are disclosed. Disclosed methods and apparatus provide indexing of captured clinical images with minimal or no user input. This is accomplished through providing the ability to set a predetermined type of patient encounter and then retrieving a clinical image of a patient from either an image capture device such as a camera in a mobile device or from a memory device. The methods and systems may also include image recognition of the clinical image to determine the type of the clinical image. Additionally, the indexing is automated, where the automated indexing is based on at least one of the predetermined type of patient encounter and the determined type of clinical image.

A flow meter includes an image sensor and a processor. The image sensor is configured to capture an image of a drip chamber. The processor is configured to determine whether the captured image of the drip chamber contains a match to a template, and to apply a blurring function to the image captured by the image sensor of the drip chamber such that the processor can determine if the captured image contains a match to the template.

An image processing apparatus counts at least one of the number of pixels having an identical color to a target pixel, the number of pixels having a similar color to the target pixel, and the number of pixels having a different color from the target pixel in a target window, and determines an attribute of the target pixel based on a result of the counting.

Provided is a training method for a character generation model, a character generation method, apparatus and device, which relate to the technical field of artificial intelligences, particularly, the technical field of computer vision and deep learning. The specific implementation scheme includes: a first training sample is acquired, a target model is trained based on the first training sample, and a first character confrontation loss is acquired; a second training sample is acquired, the target model is trained based on the second training sample, and a second character confrontation loss, a component classification loss and a style confrontation loss are acquired; and a parameter of the character generation model is adjusted according to the first character confrontation loss, the second character confrontation loss, the component classification loss and the style confrontation loss.

A system for regulating fluid flow having a processor configured to reduce image noise is provided. The system includes an image sensor to capture an image of the drip chamber. The processor captures the image of the drip chamber using the image sensor, performs an edge detection on the image to generate a first processed image, and performs an AND-operation on a pixel on a first side of an axis of the first processed image with a corresponding mirror pixel on a second side of the axis of the first processed image to generate a second processed image.

An image processing device assists searching for image data in an image viewing service, and includes: a recognizer that recognizes a part representing a target object from the image data; an extractor that extracts a color used in pixels in the part recognized; a determiner that determines a color that is not extracted from the part but is likely to be used in searching by a service user, based on a search tendency in searching by the service user; and an adder that creates a first tag indicating the color extracted by the extractor and a second tag indicating the color determined by the determiner and adds the first tag and the second tag as search tags to the image data.
