  • Techniques for spatial semantic attribute matching for location identification
    Patent number: 9251434
    Abstract: Techniques for spatial semantic attribute matching on image regions for location identification based on a reference dataset are provided. In one aspect, a method for matching images from heterogeneous sources is provided. The method includes the steps of: (a) parsing the images into different semantic labeled regions; (b) creating a list of potential matches by matching the images based on two or more of the images having same semantic labeled regions; and (c) pruning the list of potential matches created in step (b) by taking into consideration spatial arrangements of the semantic labeled regions in the images.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 7, 2013
    Date of Patent: February 2, 2016
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation

  • Unique cardiovascular measurements for human identification
    Patent number: 9031288
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus and an article of manufacture for generating a cardiovascular measurement for individual identification. The method includes acquiring at least one depiction of cardiac anatomy from an individual, extracting at least one quantified representation of cardiac anatomy from the at least one depiction, defining at least one comparison technique between the at least one quantified representation of cardiac anatomy and at least one additional quantified representation of cardiac anatomy, and identifying the individual based on the at least one defined comparison technique.
