  • Patent number: 12249052
    Abstract: A system and/or method uses a trained U-Net neural network to remove flow artifacts from optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) data. The trained U-Net receives as input both OCT structural volume data and OCTA volume data, but expands the OCTA volume data to include depth information. The U-Net applies dynamic pooling along the depth direction and weighs more heavily the portion of the data that follows (e.g., along the contours of) select retinal layers. In this manner the U-Net applies contextually different computations at different axial locations based at least in part on the depth index information and/or (e.g., proximity to) the select retinal layers. The U-net outputs OCT volume data of reduced flow artifacts as compared with the input OCTA data.

  • Patent number: 12219968
    Abstract: A smoker includes a smoke generator that is configured to provide a controllable method of producing smoke without creating a flame. The device includes a housing including a hopper for storing a smoking fuel within the interior of the housing. The hopper feeds the smoking fuel to a fuel conveyor that is partially within the housing and partially exterior of the housing. A motor is connected to the fuel conveyor so that operation of the motor causes the smoking fuel to move along the length of the fuel conveyor. As the smoking fuel moves along the fuel conveyor, it is heated to produce continuous smoke without producing a flame. The smoke generator is capable of controlling the quality and the quantity of the smoke produced by the smoke generator independently of the heat that is used to cook food within a cabinet of the smoker.
