  • Patent number: 11887248
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein relate to reconstructing a scene in three dimensions from a two-dimensional image. One embodiment processes an image using a detection transformer to detect an object in the scene and to generate a NOCS map of the object and a background depth map; uses MLPs to relate the object to a differentiable database of object priors (PriorDB); recovers, from the NOCS map, a partial 3D object shape; estimates an initial object pose; fits a PriorDB object prior to align in geometry and appearance with the partial 3D shape to produce a complete shape and refines the initial pose estimate; generates an editable and re-renderable 3D scene reconstruction based, at least in part, on the complete shape, the refined pose estimate, and the depth map; and controls the operation of a robot based, at least in part, on the editable and re-renderable 3D scene reconstruction.

  • Publication number: 20120094326
    Abstract: Methods, compositions and kits for determining the developmental potential of one or more embryos or pluripotent cells and/or the presence of chromosomal abnormalities in one or more embryos or pluripotent cells are provided. These methods, compositions and kits find use in identifying embryos and oocytes in vitro that are most useful in treating infertility in humans.
