Patent number: 8520933Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for searching and constructing a 3D motif image database, wherein said 3D motif image database can be used to understand the connection relationship of a 3D network, e.g. a neural network comprising biological neural networks or artificial neural networks. The searching and constructing methods are applied on the 3D motif image database, a proper computer-aided graphic platform. The database not only facilitates the management of the huge amount of categorized data but also rationally excavates the hidden information cloaked within.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2010Date of Patent: August 27, 2013Assignees: National Tsing Hua University, National Applied Research LaboratoryInventors: Sheng-Chuan Wang, Ann-Shyn Chiang, Ping-Chang Lee, Ching-Yao Lin, Yu-Tai Ching, Chao-Jun Zhuang, Hsiu-Ming Chang, Yung-Chang Chen, Kuen-Long Tsai, Chang-Huain Hsieh

Publication number: 20100177190Abstract: A microscopy system includes an image focusing module, a stage for supporting a sample, image collection unit for collecting sliced images of the sample acquired by the image focusing module, and an image fusion unit for fusing sliced images of the sample acquired from different observation angles. The stage supports the sample and is configured to be revolvable around a rotational axis which is substantially perpendicular to an extending direction from the sample to the image focusing module so that enabling the image focusing module to acquire sliced images of the sample from different observation angles. The image fusion unit is used for remapping the sliced images acquired from different observation angles into a reference coordinate system, converting anisotropic voxels resolution of the sliced images to isotropic resolution, and fusing the sliced images into a final image.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2010Publication date: July 15, 2010Inventors: Ann-Shyn CHIANG, Hsiu-Ming Chang, Chia-He Chen, Chien-Chung Fu, Chang-Huain Hsieh
