Abstract: A method for multi-object tracking from video. The method includes the following steps: (1) Capturing frames from the streaming source and preprocess the data; (2) Extract video features with three choices: a 3D-CNN backbone followed by a Transformer Encoder, a Video Transformer Encoder, a 2D-CNN Encoder with a stack of frames as input followed by a Transformer Encoder; (3) Multi-object tracking using a new end-to-end multi-task deep learning model named JDAT (Joint Detection Association Transformer), then post-processing and updating tracking state with Temporal Aggregation Module (TAM). The deep learning models in step 2 and step 3 are trained simultaneously end-to-end with a loss function that is accumulated over multiple timesteps (Collective Average Loss—CAL). Also, the model can be pretrained with weakly labeled image dataset in a self-supervised learning manner first, then finetuned on supervised video datasets with full tracking labels.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for treating vascular defects are disclosed herein. One aspect of the present technology, for example, includes an occlusive device comprising a mesh having a low-profile state for intravascular delivery to the aneurysm and a deployed state. The mesh may comprise a tubular mesh configured to curve along its longitudinal dimension when implanted in an aneurysm cavity.

Abstract: Medical device delivery devices, systems, and methods are disclosed herein. According to some embodiments, a medical device delivery system includes a core member and a coupling assembly positioned about the core member. The coupling assembly may include an engagement member having projections configured to engage a medical device and a release member that is movable between a compressed configuration and an expanded configuration. A medical device can extend along the core member such that, when the release member is in the compressed configuration, the projections of the engagement member engage the medical device and when the release member is in the expanded configuration, the release member prevents the projections from engaging the medical device and/or facilitates expansion of the medical device.

Abstract: A composition for treating an aqueous suspension of mineral particles includes at least one water soluble polymer and at least one calcium salt, magnesium salt or both a Calcium salt and a Magnesium salt. The composition is in powder form.

Abstract: This invention is directed to implantable coils and, more particularly, to a coil implant having a stretch-resistant member internal to the coil. The implant of the invention is able to freely articulate and torque prior to delivery. Once delivered, the implant is no longer stretch resistant and is therefore able to substantially conform to the vascular site.

Abstract: An intravascular implant delivery system carries an implant by retaining an engagement member engaging the implant in a position proximal of an aperture at a distal end of the delivery system. The engagement member is retained proximal to the aperture by a cord that obstructs the movement of the engagement member through the aperture. The engagement member is free to rotate and move within an area defined by the delivery system, allowing the implant to react to forces imparted to the implant by the movement of the delivery system and implant through a delivery catheter. Once the implant is in a desired implant position, the cord is moved away from an aperture and the engagement member is allowed to move away from the delivery system.

Abstract: A method for treating a suspension of mineral particles in water, such as mineral tailings, includes the step of contacting the suspension of mineral particles in water with a specific water-soluble polymer. This polymer is preferably a water-soluble polymer having an anionicity of between 10 to 55 mol %, and more preferably 20 to 50 mol %. Furthermore, this polymer has preferably a molecular weight between 15 and 40 million daltons, and more preferably between 18 and 30 million. The method involves adding the specific polymer into a thickener containing the tailings to treat, and/or during transport of the suspension to a deposition area for dewatering and solidification, or to the tailings to treat followed by a mechanical treatment such as centrifugation, screw press and filtration.

Abstract: This invention is directed to an implant having a coil for embolizing a vascular site, such as aneurysm. The coil has a specific three-dimensional shape that is achieved by winding the coil around a mandrel in a specific pattern and then heat setting the coil and the mandrel, another aspect of the invention. The three-dimensional shape resembles unclosed mobius loops. Also provided are methods of making the coil and methods of embolizing vascular site.

Abstract: A process for improving inline mineral slurries treatment comprises successively: providing an in-line flow of slurries in a main stream; introducing at least one polymer into the main stream through at least one polymer injection point to cause dispersion of the polymer and to start the coagulation and/or the flocculation of slurries to produce treated slurries; and splitting the main stream containing treated slurries into two streams respectively: a discharge stream which directly transfers a part of treated slurries to the deposit area, and a split stream which reintroduces the other part of treated slurries into the main stream through at least a reinjection point in a location prior to the at least one polymer injection point.
