  • Publication number: 20240118209
    Abstract: A method is proposed for detecting at least one fluorescence pattern on an immunofluorescence image of a biological cell substrate, comprising the following steps: incubating the cell substrate with a liquid patient sample, which potentially includes primary antibodies, and furthermore with secondary antibodies, which are marked using a fluorescence stain, irradiating the cell substrate using excitation radiation and capturing the immunofluorescence image, determining segmentation information comprising at least one first and one second segmentation area, wherein the segmentation areas each represent a respective cell substrate area, via segmentation of the immunofluorescence image using a first neural network, determining a boundary area, which represents a transition from the first cell substrate area towards the second cell substrate area in the fluorescence image, on the basis of the segmentation information, selecting multiple partial images from the immunofluorescence image along the boundary area, dete

  • Patent number: 8954369
    Abstract: A method to build, manage and analyze a gap analysis model in software of safety instrumented system architecture for a safety instrumented systems in a facility. The safety instrumented system architecture has at least one instrumented protective function and the non-transitory computer instructions use a real world software model in support of process safety lifecycle management.

  • Patent number: 6134632
    Abstract: A computer system including a slice-addressable multi-port memory array is disclosed. The slice-addressable multi-port memory array provides a mechanism for efficient data merging in a memory controller in accordance with an associated array of slice-enable bits. Each slice of the memory array is individually designated by a slice-enable bit, and only those slices of a word line enabled for writing that are designated by a slice-enable bit are modified during a write operation. In a subsequent write-merge operation, the slices of the word line enabled for writing that were not designated by slice-enable bits during the write operation are modified, and the slices that were modified during the preceding write operation are unaffected, thereby providing for efficient merger of data from the write operation and data from the write-merge operation in a single word line.
