  • Publication number: 20240138497
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an intelligent control system and method for a doll clothing cooling device, the system including an information acquisition system, an image acquisition system, a computer vision system, and a central control system. The information acquisition system acquires environmental parameters and human physiological parameters in the mannequin garment. The image acquisition system acquires a video image of a human face and transmits it to the computer vision system to calculate a human head temperature. The central control system predicts the human thermal sensation data based on the acquired environmental and physiological parameters. The opening degree of the cooling device of the mannequin garment is automatically adjusted according to the human body heat sensation data and the voice instructions of the wearer of the mannequin garment. The invention solves the problem of dynamically improving the thermal comfort of the wearer of the mannequin costume in real time.

  • Patent number: 11244450
    Abstract: Systems and methods for completing a morphological characterization of an image of a placenta and providing suggested pathological diagnoses are disclosed. A system includes programming instructions that, when executed, cause processing devices to execute commands according to the following logic modules: an Encoder module that receives the digital image of the placenta and outputs a pyramid of feature maps, a SegDecoder module that segments the pyramid of feature maps on a fetal side image and on a maternal side image, a Classification Subnet module that classifies the fetal side image and the maternal side image, and a convolutional IPDecoder module that localizes an umbilical cord insertion point of the placenta from the classified fetal side image and the classified maternal side image. The localized umbilical cord insertion point, segmentation maps for the classified fetal side and maternal side images are provided to an external device for determining the morphological characterization.

  • Publication number: 20030064372
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the discovery of gene and its sequence variation associated with lipid disorder and cancer. The present invention also relates to the study of metabolic pathways and cellular mechanisms to identify other genes, receptors, and relationships that contribute to lipid disorder and cancer. The present invention also relates to germline or somatic sequence variation and its use in the diagnosis and prognosis of predisposition to lipid disorder and cancer. The present invention also provides primers or probes specific for the detection and analysis of such sequence variation. The present invention also relates to methods to screen drugs for inhibition or restoration of gene function as an anti-lipid disorder or anti-cancer therapy. Finally, the present invention relates to other anti-lipid disorder or anti-cancer therapies, such as gene therapy, protein replacement therapy, etc.
