  • Patent number: 11948375
    Abstract: The contents of totes and the amount a tote container is filled are monitored. A central database stores product dimensions and tote dimensions as well as a percentage of which a tote is to be filled. Image scanners that obtain three-dimensional images are used to determine if the actual dimensions of the tote, the product, and the fill amount are consistent with the expected or optimal values of these characteristics. When there is a discrepancy between measured and expected values, then one or more actions can be taken.

  • Patent number: 11922709
    Abstract: Detecting cells depicted in an image using RNA segmentation can include obtaining a FISH image of a tissue that depicts multiple cells, obtaining a nuclear stained image of the tissue, and generating a mask that includes multiple areas that each have a position with respect to the tissue by enhancing structures depicted in the FISH image. Edges depicted in the enhanced FISH image are detected to use for the mask, and positions are determined for a first plurality of regions that fit potential nuclei depicted in the nuclear stained image. A second plurality of regions are selected from the first plurality by determining, using the mask, which regions from the first plurality overlap with the position of an area from multiple areas in the mask. Unique nuclei in the tissue are labelled using the second plurality of regions that each indicate a potential nuclei in the tissue.
