  • Patent number: 11024100
    Abstract: An apparatus is configured for performing a computer-implemented method comprising: receiving data comprising physical measurements of a biological organ across a three-dimensional (3D) volume, the organ having a hierarchical structure of elements with multiple levels; transforming the physical measurement data into a two-dimensional (2D) data representation having first and second axes, wherein the first axis corresponds to location of an element a spatial path through the three-dimensional volume based on the hierarchical structure of the organ, and the second axis corresponds to descending successive levels through said hierarchical structure; and outputting the two-dimensional data representation to an apparatus for display.

  • Patent number: 9619890
    Abstract: One embodiment of the invention provides a computer-implemented method of annotating images in a data set comprising a first set of images which initially have annotations and a second set of images which initially do not have annotations. The method comprises the steps of determining spatial correspondences for all pairs of images in the data set, wherein each spatial correspondence represents a mapping of a location in a first image to a corresponding location in a second image. For each mapping, the method further comprises calculating a connection strength between the location in the first image and the corresponding location in the second image.
