Patent number: 11730357Abstract: The exemplified systems and methods disclosed herein involve the contemporaneous and concurrent stimulation of both eyes of a patient with dissimilar visual scenes that substantially span an expected or normal visual field of both eyes. During an assessment via the exemplified system and methods, a test eye (i.e., eye being assessed) is presented a visual scene that is rich in contours (e.g., a scene with rich texture patterns) that substantially span an expected or normal visual field of a person while the non-tested eye is presented an impoverished visual scene (e.g., a contour-free or non-distinguishing-contour scene, e.g., with a homogeneous color, with respect to the contour-rich scene). Defects in the visual field can be detected by assessing for breaks or discontinuity in the observation of the contour-rich scene by the person.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: Ohio State Innovation FoundationInventors: Teng Leng Ooi, Chao Han

Patent number: 11701054Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for characterizing a behavior change of a process. A behavior model that can include a set of behavior parameters can be generated based on behavior data characterizing a prior behavior change of a process. A stimulus parameter for a performance test can be determined based on the set of behavior parameters. An application of the performance test to the process can be controlled based on the stimulus parameter to provide a measure of behavior change of the process. Response data characterizing one or more responses associated with the process during the performance test can be received. The set of behavior parameters can be updated based on the response data to update the behavior model characterizing the behavior change of the process. In some examples, the behavior model can be evaluated to improve or affect a future behavior performance of the process.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2018Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignees: OHIO STATE INNOVATION FOUNDATION, ADAPTIVE SENSORY TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Zhong-Lin Lu, Yukai Zhao, Luis A.

Patent number: 11687581Abstract: An end-to-end software framework is provided for information extraction, enrichment, and caching in applications that involve exploring real-world data through a camera-based viewport in an augmented reality (AR) setting. It allows users to gather supplementary information through cross-modal data fusion against cloud-based datastores. Additional context is provided by retrieving data units from remote datastores that are relevant to the queried item. Given that such datastores often do not fit in main memory, a client-server architecture is used. Users interact with real-world objects via a camera-enabled client interface, and queries are executed using gesture-based interactions as supplementary information is retrieved from a back-end server (if necessary) and overlaid in the client's live camera-view.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: Ohio State Innovation FoundationInventors: Arnab Nandi, Ritesh Sarkhel, Codi Burley

Patent number: 11678802Abstract: Systems and methods utilize an infrared probe and discriminating software to rapidly discriminate normal tissue processes from normal tissue during surgery, physical examination of in-situ lesions, and in the assessment of biopsy and resected tissue specimens. Examples demonstrate discrimination of cancerous from noncancerous tissues. The discriminating software, i.e. the metrics, algorithms, calibrant spectra, and decision equations, allows tissue to be identified as abnormal or normal using a minimum of infrared (IR) wavelengths in order to be measured rapidly. The probe records IR metrics approximately 1000 times faster than current commercial instruments, i.e. on a timescale fast enough for clinical use. The probe uses a tunable mid-infrared laser with a small set of selected wavelengths that are optimized for detecting the chemical and molecular signatures of tissue specific lesions to include, but not limited to, cancer, preneoplasia, intracellular accumulations (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2017Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: OHIO STATE INNOVATION FOUNDATIONInventors: James Coe, Heather Allen, Charles Hitchcock, Edward W.

Patent number: 11673919Abstract: The present disclosure provides a large combinatorial library of cell-permeable bicyclic peptides. The bicyclic peptides described herein include the first ring consisted of randomized peptide sequences for potential binding to a target of interest while the second ring featured a family of different cell-penetrating motifs, for both cell penetration and target binding. The library was screened against the I?B kinase ?/? (IKK?/?)-binding domain of NF-?B essential modulator (NEMO), resulting in the discovery of several cell-permeable bicyclic peptides which inhibited the NEMO-IKK? interaction, thereby selectively inhibiting canonical NF-?B signaling in mammalian cells and the proliferation of cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2022Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: Ohio State Innovation FoundationInventor: Dehua Pei
