20150201896 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED DETECTION OF TISSUE INTERIOR TO A MAMMALIAN RIBCAGE FROM AN IN VIVO IMAGE - Described herein are systems and methods for efficient and accurate, automated detection of a region of interest interior to the ribcage from an in vivo mammalian image. It is found that efficient, automated identification of the region of interest interior to the ribcage can be achieved by the use of both a bone distance mask and a surface distance mask. The technique solves the problem of accurate and fast identification of the region of interest for a wide range of sizes and shapes of mammals, e.g., small mammals such as mice. | 07-23-2015 |
20130197812 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTION OF CHROMOSOMAL GAINS AND LOSSES - A modified principal component analysis technique is described herein for analysis of relatively small data sets for the detection of chromosomal aneuploidies and/or microdeletions. Unlike analysis techniques for microarray studies, the present technique uses a modified principal component analysis that does not involve performing a covariance analysis. The methods, systems, and apparatus described herein allow for significant reduction of data noise in tests for the detection of chromosomal aneuploidies and/or microdeletions, leading to fewer inconclusive results. | 08-01-2013 |
20130064468 | Methods and Apparatus for Image Analysis and Modification Using Fast Sliding Parabola Erosian - Methods and apparatus are provided for image analysis and modification using a fast sliding parabola erosion. The methods include selecting a scan line in an image and performing a unidirectional left-hand pass followed by a unidirectional right-hand pass. The unidirectional passes are performed as loops with increasing distance. By utilizing simple unidirectional left-hand and right-hand passes along a scan line in an image, the erosion procedure is greatly simplified and computation times are significantly reduced. | 03-14-2013 |
20130064441 | Methods and Apparatus for Fast Identification of Relevant Features for Classification or Regression - In various embodiments, methods and apparatus are provided for automated selection of features of cells useful for classifying cell phenotype. The methods include determining a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for each of a plurality of pairs of features, rather than S/N for individual features. The approach is capable of quickly identifying a small set of features of imaged cells that are most relevant for classification of a desired cell phenotype from among a very large number of features. The small group of relevant features can then be used to more efficiently and more accurately classify phenotype of unidentified cells. | 03-14-2013 |
