Patent number: 11521316Abstract: The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of visible part of the human jaw is becoming required for many diagnostic and treatment procedures. The present invention improves upon Statistical Shape from Shading (SSFS) framework by using a novel approach to automatically extract prior information. This two-step framework consists of interdental gingiva regions extraction for each individual tooth and detection of the centerline across the jaw span. These two steps help extract the anatomical landmark points and detect the status of the jaw.

Patent number: 11423548Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for segmenting generic foreground objects in images and videos. For segmenting generic foreground objects in videos, an appearance stream of an image in a video frame is processed using a first deep neural network. Furthermore, a motion stream of an optical flow image in the video frame is processed using a second deep neural network. The appearance and motion streams are then joined to combine complementary appearance and motion information to perform segmentation of generic objects in the video frame. Generic foreground objects are segmented in images by training a convolutional deep neural network to estimate a likelihood that a pixel in an image belongs to a foreground object. After receiving the image, the likelihood that the pixel in the image is part of the foreground object as opposed to background is then determined using the trained convolutional deep neural network.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2017Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: Board of Regents, The University of Texas SystemInventors: Kristen Grauman, Suyog Dutt Jain, Bo Xiong
