Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for providing visual expertise to objectively measure, evaluate, and visualize aesthetic change are provided. Example embodiments provide an Aesthetic Delta Measurement System (“ADMS”), which enables users to objectively measure and visualize aesthetic health and wellness and treatment outcomes and to continuously supplement a knowledge repository of objective aesthetic data based upon a combination of automated machine learning and surveyed human input data. The ADMS provides a labeling platform for labeling aesthetic health and wellness over large populations of individuals and a personal analysis application for viewing an individuals aesthetic changes over time. The ADMS provides labeling of images using guides with corresponding discrete scalar values or using pairwise comparison techniques.

Abstract: An improved golf pin flag device for providing accurate wind velocity information is disclosed, including a golf pin and a flexible open-ended frusto-conical shaped flag member which, when encountering incident wind, enlarges and becomes extended in proportion to wind speed and self-orients parallel to the wind flow to indicate wind direction. A pair of elongated resilient members define the periphery of the larger opening of the frusto-conical member. The opposite ends of the elongated members are pivotably mounted to rotatable bearings on the golf pin. As the elongated members pivot away from each other, they enlarge the opening and the lowermost bearing slides upward on the golf pin.
