Publication number: 20220367053Abstract: Systems and methods can quantify the tumor microenvironment for diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic response prediction by fusing different data types (e.g., morphological information from histology and molecular information from omics) using an algorithm that harnesses deep learning. The algorithm employs tensor fusion to provide end-to-end multimodal fusion to model the pairwise interactions of features across multiple modalities (e.g., histology and molecular features) and deep learning. The systems and methods improve upon traditional methods for quantifying the tumor microenvironment that rely on concatenation of extracted features.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2020Publication date: November 17, 2022Inventors: Faisal Mahmood, Richard Chen

Patent number: 9722729Abstract: A powerline communication (PLC) device can be configured to execute functionality for zero cross sampling and detection. When the PLC device is directly coupled to a high-voltage PLC network, the PLC device can comprise printed safety capacitors in series with a high-voltage input AC powerline signal to safely couple the high-voltage AC powerline signal to the low-voltage processing circuit. The PLC device can also comprise an ADC to sample a scaled AC powerline signal and to obtain zero cross information. When the PLC device is part of an embedded PLC application, dynamic loading can affect the integrity of a low voltage zero cross signal that is used to extract zero cross information. After digitizing the zero cross signal, the PLC device can execute functionality to minimize/eliminate voltage drops caused by dynamic loading and obtain the zero cross information.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Gregory Allen Magin, Faisal Mahmood Shad, Lawrence Winston Yonge, III, Sanjay Kasturia, Niranjan Anand Talwalkar

Patent number: 9276632Abstract: A multichannel communications medium may have two or more channels available for transmitting information. A first transmission signal and a second transmission signal may be prepared from a same analog signal to be transmitted on a first channel and a second channel. For example, a phase shift or amplitude shift may be performed on the first transmission signal or the second transmission signal. The first transmission signal may be transmitted via the first channel, and the second transmission signal may be transmitted via the second channel. The phase shift or amplitude shift may be performed by analog components that are less complex than digital signal processors used for digital signal diversity. The analog components may be digitally controlled. The analog signal diversity may utilize cost effective analog components to improve the performance of the communications system over single channel communications without requiring complex digital signal processing of multiple signal paths.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2013Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Richard Joseph McConnell, Faisal Mahmood Shad
