  • Patent number: 12133730
    Abstract: The present application provides an AI-based system for evaluating an individual's mindfulness (e.g., during prayer) based on video captured of the individual. In one example, the video may be captured via a smart phone. The individual's mindfulness may be continually evaluated from the captured video by observing the individual's body pose and movements. For instance, turning the individual's head to one side or moving the individual's eyes around rapidly can be signs of losing focus. Body pose and movement information of an individual may be derived from the video through AI-based video analytics. The user's body pose and movements may be checked against a set of predefined criteria for mindfulness, and an objective evaluation may be provided. Such evaluation can then be fed back to the individual, for example, to remind the individual whenever they lose focus during prayer.

  • Patent number: 12132933
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and a device for coding a sequence including first and second digital holograms representing respective scenes, the digital holograms being represented by a set of wavelets each defined by a multiplet of coordinates in multidimensional space. The first and second holograms are represented by first and second coefficients respectively associated with wavelets. The coding method includes the following steps: for each second coefficient, determining a remainder by a difference between the second coefficient concerned, associated with a first wavelet defined by a given multiplet, and the first coefficient) associated with a second wavelet defined by a multiplet having as its image the multiplet by a transform in the multidimenisonal space; coding the determined remainders. The transform is determined by analysis of variation between the first scene represented by the first digital hologram and the second scene represented by the second digital hologram.

    Abstract: The disclosure belongs to the field of image segmentation in medical image processing and discloses a three-dimensional medical image segmentation method and system based on short-term and long-term memory self-attention models, in which the method can segment a target area image in the medical image, which includes the following. (1) A training set sample is established. (2) Processing is performed on the original three-dimensional medical image to be segmented to obtain a sample to be segmented. (3) A three-dimensional medical image segmentation network based on short-term and long-term memory self-attention is established and trained. (4) The sample to be segmented is input to the network, and then a segmentation result of the target area in the sample to be segmented is output. By combining CNN and Transformer, a new model for accurate real-time segmentation of the target area (such as a tumor) in the three-dimensional medical image is obtained.

  • Patent number: 12100224
    Abstract: Techniques for detecting key points associated with objects in an environment are described herein. The techniques may include receiving sensor data representing a portion of an environment in which the vehicle is operating and inputting the sensor data into a machine-learned model. Based on the input sensor data, the machine-learned model may detect one or more key points corresponding to physical features (e.g., hands, feet, eyes, etc.) of a pedestrian who is in the environment. Based on the one or more key points, a bounding box associated with the pedestrian may be generated and the vehicle may be controlled based on at least one of the key points or the bounding box. The techniques may also include training the machine-learned model to detect key points associated with pedestrians.
