Publication number: 20240227237Abstract: A method for fabricating a molded piece includes filling a mold with a slurry, curing the slurry in the mold to create a cured piece, and heating the mold, with the cured piece therein, to burn off the mold and a binder of the slurry.

The mold may be fabricated from a resin or polymer using three-dimensional (3D) printing. The molded piece may be a porous ceramic electrospray emitter. To create this emitter with a sharp tip, at least part of the mold may be fabricated using 3D printing based on two-photon polymerization, which has a higher spatial resolution than other types of 3D printing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2024Publication date: July 11, 2024Applicant: Cornell UniversityInventors: Sadaf Sobhani, Elaine Marie Petro, Suhail Chamieh

Patent number: 12032048Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for optimizing a sub-sampling pattern for efficient capture of a sub-sampled image to be reconstructed to form a high-resolution image, in a data-driven fashion. For example, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans can be accelerated by under-sampling in k-space (i.e., the Fourier domain). Since the reconstruction model's success depends on the sub-sampling pattern, optimization of the sub-sampling pattern can be combined with optimization of the model, for a given sparsity constraint, using an end-to-end learning operation. A machine-learning model may be trained using full-resolution training data that are under-sampled retrospectively, yielding a sub-sampling pattern and reconstruction model that are customized to the type of images represented in the training data.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2019Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: Cornell UniversityInventors: Mert R. Sabuncu, Cagla D Bahadir

Patent number: 12033233Abstract: A method performed by at least one processing device in an illustrative embodiment comprises applying a first image and a message to an encoder of a steganographic encoder-decoder neural network, generating in the encoder, based at least in part on the first image and the message, a perturbed image containing the message, decoding the perturbed image in a decoder of the steganographic encoder-decoder neural network, and providing information characterizing the decoded perturbed image to the encoder. The generating, decoding and providing are iteratively repeated, with different perturbations being determined in the encoder as a function of respective different instances of the provided information, until the decoded perturbed image meets one or more specified criteria relative to the message. The perturbed image corresponding to the decoded perturbed image that meets the one or more specified criteria relative to the message is output as a steganographic image containing the message.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2022Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: Cornell UniversityInventors: Varsha Kishore, Kilian Weinberger, Xiangyu Chen, Boyi Li, Yan Wang, Ruihan Wu
