  • Publication number: 20230397794
    Abstract: A system includes at least one processor, and at least one memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor(s), cause the system to: access a in-vivo images captured by a capsule endoscope where the in-vivo images are designated as containing a pathology indicator; form a connected graph component based on the in-vivo images where the connected graph component includes at least two images of the in-vivo images connected based on at least one indication that the at least two images contain the same occurrence of the pathology indicator; process the connected graph component with a machine learning model to provide a score indicative of whether the at least two images contain the same occurrence of the pathology indicator; and associate the score with the at least two images for presentation to a reviewer of the at least two images.

  • Publication number: 20230298306
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for determining whether two images of a gastrointestinal tract (GIT) contain the same occurrence of an event indicator or different occurrences of an event indicator. An exemplary processing system includes at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions. When the instruction are executed by the processor(s), they cause the processing system to access a first image and a second image of a portion of a GIT, where the first image and the second image contain at least one occurrence of an event indicator, and to classify the first image and the second image by a classification system configured to provide an indication of whether the first image and second image contain a same occurrence of the event indicator or contain different occurrences of the event indicator.

  • Publication number: 20230148834
    Abstract: In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, a system includes at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor(s), cause the system to access images of a portion of a gastrointestinal tract (GIT) captured by a capsule endoscopy device; for each of the images, provide, by a deep learning neural network, scores for classifying the image to each of consecutive segments of the GIT; classify each image of a subset of the images, whose scores satisfy a confidence criterion, to one of the consecutive segments of the GIT; refine the classifications of the images in the subset by processing a signal over time corresponding to the classifications of the images in the subset; and estimate, among the images in the subset, a transition (1010) between two adjacent segments of the GIT based on the refined classifications of the images in the subset.

  • Patent number: 8996428
    Abstract: Method, system, and computer program product are provided for predicting diagnosis of a patient performed by a computerized device. The method may include: modeling data from a group of successfully diagnosed patients, wherein the data is modeled as treatment paths of patients including referrals to medical practitioners; and predicting diagnosis for a current patient by comparing a treatment path of the current patient with the modeled treatment paths of successfully diagnosed patients, including calculating a probability of a given diagnosis from the modeled treatment paths. The method may include: defining a set of medical entities including medical practitioners to which a patient has been referred; and gathering treatment paths of successfully diagnosed patients, wherein the treatment path links medical entities in a directional route.

  • Publication number: 20130227113
    Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing a virtualized communication network are provided. The method comprises monitoring traffic among nodes in a virtualized communication network to determine one or more relationships among the nodes, wherein the nodes include physical and logically defined components; determining whether one or more edges connecting the nodes in the communications network satisfy a rule; grouping the nodes connected by the one or more edges that satisfy the rule into at least one group; ranking the nodes in the group in accordance with a parameter; and implementing a policy to optimize the virtualized communication network in accordance with information determined from the ranking or the grouping of the nodes.

  • Patent number: 8285734
    Abstract: Techniques for comparing a first document to one or more second documents are provided. At least one weight is assigned to one or more elements in the first document. A weighted document is generated in accordance with the at least one assigned weight. One or more comparison scores are computed by comparing each of the one or more elements in the first document to each of one or more elements in a given second document in accordance with one or more comparison rules. The one or more comparison rules determine if a given element in the first document and a given element in the given second document are compared using one or more language hierarchies and/or one or more similarity ranges. A similarity score is generated in accordance with the generated weighted document and the one or more computed comparison scores. The one or more second documents are retrieved in accordance with the generated similarity score.
