  • Patent number: 11961770
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a processing tool. The tool includes a housing enclosing a processing chamber, and an input/output port configured to pass a wafer through the housing into and out of the processing chamber. A back-side macro-inspection system is arranged within the processing chamber and is configured to image a back side of the wafer. A front-side macro-inspection system is arranged within the processing chamber and is configured to image a front side of the wafer according to a first image resolution. A front-side micro-inspection system is arranged within the processing chamber and is configured to image the front side of the wafer according to a second image resolution which is higher than the first image resolution.

  • Patent number: 11937932
    Abstract: An acute kidney injury predicting system and a method thereof are proposed. A processor reads the data to be tested, the detection data, the machine learning algorithm and the risk probability comparison table from a main memory. The processor trains the detection data according to the machine learning algorithm to generate an acute kidney injury prediction model, and inputs the data to be tested into the acute kidney injury prediction model to generate an acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability and a data sequence table. The data sequence table lists the data to be tested in sequence according to a proportion of each of the data to be tested in the acute kidney injury characteristics. The processor selects one of the medical treatment data from the risk probability comparison table according to the acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability.

  • Patent number: 10188332
    Abstract: A system for sensing glucose concentration is provided and includes following components. A light source generates a light beam. The system may include a polarization state generator (PSG) for changing the polarization of the light beam, and then the light beam is emitted to a biological tissue. A polarization state analyzer (PSA) receives the light beam reflected from the biological tissue, and the received light beam is used to calculate Stokes vectors. A Mueller matrix is calculated according to the Stokes vectors. In some embodiments, the system includes an optical coherence tomography (OCT) in which the light beam is sensed by a detector for calculating the Mueller matrix. An optical rotation angle and a depolarization index are calculated in accordance with the differential Mueller matrix formalism. The glucose concentration is calculated in accordance with the optical rotation angle and the depolarization index.
