Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and non-transitory machine-readable storage media are provided for detecting recapture attacks of images. One method comprises extracting one or more features from an image captured by a device; applying the one or more features as input to a trained machine learning model, wherein the trained machine learning model outputs a first score based on the extracted features; obtaining metadata of the image; performing a statistical analysis of the metadata of the image; generating a second score based on the statistical analysis of the metadata of the image; and generating a probability that the image is a recapture of an original image based on the first score and the second score.

Abstract: An image viewing pipeline is provided as an independently releasable component of an image viewing application. Images are provided for viewing in the application using dedicated infrastructure for the image viewing pipeline that is separate from infrastructure used to provide other functionality of the image viewing application. The image viewing pipeline receives images from a DICOM image service and provides the images to a client application. The client application is operative to request images, process images, and cache images. The client application is further operative to satisfy individual image requests and may prefetch stacks of images using the image viewing pipeline.

Abstract: An air veil system includes a housing containing a sensor, and a manifold mounted to the housing. The manifold defines an air outlet as a continuous loop surrounding the sensor. The air outlet is configured to receive a supply of pressurized air from an air source and generate an airflow that extends outward from the continuous loop in front of the housing, the airflow creating an air veil surrounding the sensor. The air veil extends outward from the continuous loop in front of the housing at an angle such that the air veil converges at a point in an axial direction of the manifold in front of the housing. The manifold includes a first surface and a second surface disposed at a predetermined gap relative the first surface. The air outlet as the continuous loop is defined by the predetermined gap.

Abstract: An adaptive computer simulation rendering system is disclosed for conditioning an individual suffering from a stress disorder, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), to real-world environments through variable sensory output in computer simulations. The subject is fully or partially immersed in a computer-simulated environment for a time-limited session. Real-time monitoring of the human subject is performed for a change in a sensor-derived, quantified sensory load level. Responsive to an increase in sensory load level, the computer-simulated environment modulates the sensor load on the individual. The human subject adapts to increasingly complex environments by this modulation of simulation.
