  • Patent number: 11602312
    Abstract: A method for determining a disease state prediction, relating to a potential disease or medical condition of a subject, includes accessing a set of subject images, the subject images capturing a part of a subject's body, and accessing a set of clinical factors from the subject. The clinical factors are collected by a device or a medical practitioner substantially contemporaneously with the capture of the subject images. The subject images are inputted into an image model to generate disease metrics for disease prediction for the subject. The disease metrics generated by the image model and the clinical factors are inputted into a classifier to determine the disease state prediction, and the disease state prediction is returned.

  • Patent number: 11605156
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for accurately filling holes, regions, and/or portions of images using iterative image inpainting. In particular, iterative inpainting utilize a confidence analysis of predicted pixels determined during the iterations of inpainting. For instance, a confidence analysis can provide information that can be used as feedback to progressively fill undefined pixels that comprise the holes, regions, and/or portions of an image where information for those respective pixels is not known. To allow for accurate image inpainting, one or more neural networks can be used. For instance, a coarse result neural network (e.g., a GAN comprised of a generator and a discriminator) and a fine result neural network (e.g., a GAN comprised of a generator and two discriminators).

  • Patent number: 11605176
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for providing a user with retrieved images of a specific article of clothing or accessory worn by models having a particular body type and pose as selected by the user. The images have been analyzed to identify both a body type and pose of the model wearing the article of clothing in each of the images. The images are labeled based on at least body type and pose of the model and clustered based on their labels, and are thus available for retrieval by subsequent requests by a user. In particular, a user that is interested in the article of clothing can input one or more requests for images of models having a selected body type and pose. Any of the images labeled with the selected body type and pose can then be provided to the user in any number ways.

  • Patent number: 11601797
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for communicating at a cellular router between a first wireless communication module and a first subscriber identity module (SIM). The cellular router receives a first request from a first wireless communication module and encapsulates the first request in a first modified request. The cellular router then sends the first modified request to a first SIM card in a first communication apparatus and waits for a first modified reply. While waiting for the first modified reply the cellular router sends at least one halt message to the first wireless communication module after a first time threshold. After receiving the first modified reply, the cellular router decapsulates the first modified reply to retrieve a first reply and sends the first reply to the first wireless communication module where the first modified reply is a reply to the first modified request.

  • Patent number: 11593945
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a semantically augmented image are disclosed. An embedding is generated for each object label associated with a segmented input image. For each embedding associated with a respective object label, a similarity score is computed between the embedding associated with the object label and an embedding representing an object class in an object bank storing a plurality of object images. At least one object is selected, the selected object being associated with a respective object image in the object bank, the selected at least one object being from an identified object class that is identified as contextually relevant to at least one object label associated with the segmented input image, based at least on the similarity score. The selected object is added into the segmented input image to generate the augmented image.
