Patent number: 8687879Abstract: Provides quantitative data about a two or more dimensional image. Classifies and counts number of entities an image contains. Each entity comprises a structure, or some other type of identifiable portion having definable characteristics. The entities located within an image may have different shape, color, texture, etc., but still belong to the same classification. Alternatively, entities comprising a similar color/texture may be classified as one type while entities comprising a different color/texture may be classified as another type. May quantify image data according to set of changing criteria and derive one or more classifications for entities in image. I.e., provides a way for a computer to determine what kind of entities (e.g., entities) are in image and counts total number of entities visually identified in image. Information utilized during a training process may be stored and applied across different images.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2011Date of Patent: April 1, 2014Inventors: Carl W. Cotman, Charles F. Chubb, Yoshiyuki Inagaki, Brian Cummings

Publication number: 20110078036Abstract: The operations, methods and functions of a technology-based idea assessment, protection and connection system are described. The system involves new methods and computer based algorithms and networks to value technology based ideas, complete a quality assessment of the technology-based idea, package the technology-based idea and determine a cost-based strategy for protection of technology-based idea. The software-as-a-service system determines an output of an idea generator's strength in his technology or research network and suggests a path to commercialization. A protected technology-based idea is matched with a product development outlet such as a company, entrepreneur or executive manager to produce a faster commercialization outlet. The services and tools for the creation of technology-based start-ups are described. The system streamlines the costly and complicated process of technology commercialization by automatically aligning human and financial resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2010Publication date: March 31, 2011Applicant: University of Utah Research FoundationInventors: Brian Cummings, Moj Eram
