  • Patent number: 11928875
    Abstract: Described herein is a mechanism for visual recognition of items or visual search using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of text in images. Recognized OCR blocks in an image comprise position information and recognized text. The embodiments utilize a location-aware feature vector created using the position and recognized information in each recognized block. The location-aware features of the feature vector utilize position information associated with the block to calculate a weight for the block. The recognized text is used to construct a tri-character gram frequency, inverse document frequency (TGF-IDP) metric using tri-character grams extracted from the recognized text. Features in location-aware feature vector for the block are computed by multiplying the weight and the corresponding TGF-IDF metric. The location-aware feature vector for the image is the sum of the location-aware feature vectors for the individual blocks.

  • Patent number: 11871156
    Abstract: A detection system includes a filter and a detector. The filter receives input packets from one or more dynamic vision sensors (DVSs) deployed in an area. The filter reduces the bandwidth of the input packets to produce compressed data packets while maintaining good end-to-end detection capability. The compressed data packets are transmitted to a detector in a low bandwidth transmission. The detector may collect compressed data packets from many filters. The detector determines if an object of interest is represented in the information of the input packets. If an object of interest is present, the detector activates an alarm, sends a notification to a person associated with the area and/or stores an indication in a database.

  • Patent number: 11801094
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of determining the sagittal rotation of a patient's pelvis based on a standard anterior posterior X-ray-image with known image parameters and a calibration of the image, for example by using at least one King-Mark calibration object. The angle of the pelvic rotation is determined between a pelvic plane which is orthogonal to the midsagittal plane of the pelvis, and the image plane of the X-ray-image. Assuming the patient's position shown on the X-ray-image represents a standard neutral position, the X-ray-image plane can be used as a functional reference plane for further calculations, for example during hip-replacement surgery. The present invention further relates to a corresponding computer program and system.
