  • Publication number: 20230277283
    Abstract: A method and a system for generating a three-dimensional crown surface for replacing a missing tooth are disclosed. The method comprising: detecting the missing tooth from a digital three-dimensional representation of a mouth using a first artificial intelligence model; and using a second artificial intelligence model, generating a three-dimensional crown surface for replacing the missing tooth taking into account one or more of a dental preparation, margin line, occlusion, the gap between the preparation and adjacent and opposing teeth.

  • Publication number: 20210251490
    Abstract: There is described a system for determining a coronal artery tissue type. The system generally has an optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging system being configured for acquiring an OCT image of coronal artery tissue; and a controller configured to perform the steps of: using trained feature extraction engines, extracting corresponding feature vectors comprising a plurality of features in at least a region of interest of the OCT image; using trained classification engines, determining corresponding preliminary coronal artery tissue types associated to the region of interest of the OCT image based on corresponding ones of the plurality of feature vectors; and using a majority voting engine, majority voting an output coronal artery tissue type associated to the region of interest of the OCT image based on the previously determined preliminary coronal artery tissue types.

  • Patent number: 8965077
    Abstract: Methods and systems determine a correspondence of two sets of data, each data set represents an object. A weighted graph is created from each data set, and a Laplacian is determined for each weighted graph, from which spectral components are determined. The spectral components determine a coordinate of a node in a weighted graph. Nodes of a weighted graph are weighted with a quantified feature related to anode. A coordinate related to a quantified feature of a node is added to the coordinate based on the spectral components. Spectral components related to a weighted graph are reordered to a common ordering. Reordered spectral components related to the first and second data set are aligned and a correspondence is determined. An object may be a brain and a feature may be a sulcal depth. Other objects for which a correspondence may be determined include an electrical network, an image and a social network.

  • Patent number: 8131075
    Abstract: A method for segmenting at least a pair of regions of an image. High resolution data is obtained of the image. Each one of the pair of the regions in the image is marked. Graph cuts are used on the downsampled data to obtain first voxels along an outer boundary of a selected one of the pair of marked regions and second voxels along an inner boundary the selected region. The graphs cuts are projected to the previously obtained high-resolution image data. First and second sets of seeds are placed on the first voxels and a second set of seeds respectively. The first seeds grow into first areas extending inwardly of the selected region while simultaneously the second seeds grow into second areas extending towards the first extending areas until the first areas and the second areas meet to thereby establish the outer boundary of the selected region.
