Patent number: 11120253Abstract: This disclosure relates to the use of “pseudo-images” to perform image recognition, e.g., to perform facial image recognition. In an embodiment, the pseudo-image is obtained by starting with a real world image and, after optional preprocessing, subjecting the image to a non-linear transformation that converts the image into a pseudo-image. While real world objects (or, more generally, real world patterns) may be perceivable in the starting image, they cannot be perceived in the pseudo-image. Image recognition takes place by comparing the pseudo-image with a library of known pseudo-images, i.e., image recognition takes place in pseudo-image space without a return to real world space. In this way, robust image recognition is achieved even for imperfect real world images, such as, real world images that have been degraded by noise, poor illumination, uneven lighting, and/or occlusion, e.g., the presence of glasses, scarves, or the like in the case of facial images.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2019Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: Stowers Institute for Medical ResearchInventors: Congrong (Ron) Yu, Rishabh Raj, Dar Wilbur Dahlen

Patent number: 11120360Abstract: Atoms and atom-like quantum emitters are promising for quantum sensing, computing, and communications. Lasers and microscopes enable high-fidelity quantum control of the atomic quantum bits (qubits). However, it is challenging to scale up individual quantum control to enough atomic quantum nodes for implementing useful and practical quantum algorithms. Here, we introduce methods and systems to holographically implement large-scale quantum circuits that individually address atomic quantum nodes. These methods enable implementation of quantum circuits over large, multi-dimensional arrays of atomic qubits at rates of thousands to millions of quantum circuit layers per second. The quantum circuit layers are encoded in multiplexed holograms displayed on a slow SLM and retrieved by fast interrogation to produce spatial distributions that operate on the qubit array.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2020Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Donggyu Kim, Dirk Robert Englund
