Abstract: Methods for input/output voltage training of a three-dimensional (3D) memory device is disclosed. The method can comprise the following operations: (1) setting a reference voltage value at an on-die termination (ODT) enabled status; (2) controlling the 3D memory device to perform a write training process; (3) determining whether a further write training process is needed; (4) in response to determining that the further write training process is needed, repeating operations (1), (2) and (3); and (5) in response to determining that the further write training process is not needed, setting the reference voltage value as an optimized reference voltage value.

Abstract: Facial recognition method comprises generating an average three-dimensional model from a series of two-dimensional, consecutive, captured video frames and rotating that three-dimensional model to a frontal view. The three-dimensional model may be reduced to a two-dimensional model in order to create a mean reference map. Next, the method includes accessing a facial database to compare the mean reference map to a series of previously-stored reference maps, one for each individual in the database, each of the previously-stored reference maps including a set of previously-stored reference points. Finally, an individual whose previously-stored reference map most closely matches the mean reference map is identified as a match.

Abstract: The coronary sinus or other vessel is segmented by finding a centerline and then using the centerline to locate the boundary of the vessel. For finding the centerline, a refinement process uses multi-scale sparse appearance learning. For locating the boundary, the lumen is segmented as a graph cut problem.

Abstract: An image-based text extraction and searching system extracts an image be selected by gesture input by a user and the associated image data and proximate textual data in response to the image selection. Extracted image data and textual data can be utilized to perform or enhance a computerized search. The system can determine one or more database search terms based on the textual data and generate at least a first search query proposal related to the image data and the textual data.
