  • Publication number: 20230267656
    Abstract: In various embodiments, an inference application constructs medical images. The inference application executes a first trained machine learning model on a set of data points associated with a both a medical item and a spectral domain to generate a second model that represents the medical item within the spectral domain. The inference application maps a set of positions to a set of predicted values associated with both the medical item and the spectral domain via the second model. The inference application constructs an image of the medical item based on the first set of predicted values.

  • Publication number: 20230153604
    Abstract: To assist a machine learning environment in modelling a complex physical simulation (such as a numerical simulation or physics simulation), a correlation between input coordinates is determined. For example, a discrete solution (e.g., the correlation between the plurality of input coordinates) may be obtained from a non-discrete (e.g., continuous) physics space by performing a conversion from the physics space to a grid space. This correlation is input along with the coordinates into a machine learning environment to obtain results from the simulation. As a result, instead of implementing resource and power-intensive simulations to solve these computation problems, a machine learning environment implemented using less power and computing resources may solve these computation problems in a faster and more efficient manner.

  • Publication number: 20180333249
    Abstract: An organ lengthening device comprising a spring-like structure, wherein the surface of the device is covered with micron-size anchors such as hooks, studs or wires made from a biodegradable polymer. The anchors are configured to engage the surface of the organ so that the device will be anchored to the organ. The device, which is inserted into the organ in a compressed position, gradually lengthens over time, thereby lengthening the organ, wherein the anchors are configured to degrade away and eventually allow the device to become disengaged from the organ.
