  • Publication number: 20240112348
    Abstract: A backbone machine learning model is applied to a captured image of a number of documents to identify image features of the captured image. A head machine learning model is applied to the image features to identify a number of candidate quadrilaterals within the captured image. An edge detection technique is applied to each candidate quadrilateral to identify edges of a corresponding document of the captured image within the candidate quadrilateral.

  • Patent number: 11359749
    Abstract: A conduit locking system includes a first cylindrical conduit having a male and female portion. The female portion includes an engagement protrusion that is radially disposed on an outer surface, and an inner surface that is configured to engage an outer surface of a male portion of a second cylindrical conduit to define a continuous fluid passageway. The conduit locking system comprises an annular band having a tensioner and is configured to engage the male portion of the second cylindrical conduit. The annular band may also comprise a plurality of fingers disposed radially about the annular band. The plurality of fingers may be configured to engage the engagement protrusion of the female portion of the first cylindrical conduit. The conduit locking system is manipulatable between an unclamped position to a clamped position.
