Patent number: 11954902Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a final classification output for an image of eye tissue. The image is provided as input to each of one or more segmentation neural networks to obtain one or more segmentation maps of the eye tissue in the image. A respective classification input is generated from each of the segmentation maps. For each of the segmentation maps, the classification input for the segmentation map is provided as input to each of one or more classification neural networks to obtain, for each segmentation map, a respective classification output from each classification neural network. A final classification output for the image is generated from the respective classification outputs for each of the segmentation maps.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2020Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Jeffrey De Fauw, Joseph R.

Publication number: 20060155971Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the transmission of digital messages by a monitoring circuit (18) which is integrated into a microprocessor (12), said method being performed during the execution of a series of instructions by the microprocessor. Moreover, at least one of said digital messages represents the detection of a jump in the execution of the series of instructions from a source instruction to a destination instruction. The inventive method consists in determining whether or not the jump is associated with a jump instruction from the series of instructions for which the address of the jump destination instruction is explicitly indicated in the instruction. If the answer is in the affirmative, a first value is allocated to a first set of bits or, if the answer is in the negative, a second value is allocated to the first set of bits.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2002Publication date: July 13, 2006Applicant: STMicroelectronics S.A.Inventors: Catherine Robert, Xavier Robert, Jehan-Philippe Barbiero
