  • Publication number: 20240096061
    Abstract: An apparatus for calibrating output from an image classifier. The apparatus has an image classifier trained to compute, from an image, confidence values for each of a plurality of skin conditions potentially depicted in the image. The apparatus has a processor to compute a probability score for at least one skin condition by adjusting an associated confidence value using information from an incidence corrected data set which is a plurality of images resampled according to data about an incidence of the skin condition in a population from which the image was captured.

  • Publication number: 20210227988
    Abstract: The present invention relates to beds having a support surface defined by a plurality of support members. According to some aspects the support members are sprung and the bed includes a damping system for example a damping arm, for damping vibrations of the springs. According to some aspects the support members have laterally extending pusher members arranged to engage with adjacent support members; the pusher members comprising damping material. According to some aspects the support members are received by a guide member made up of two parts arranged to retain a spring by engaging between the coils of the spring. The present invention also relates to bed frames comprising a plurality of movable side elements mounted for movement in a direction substantially normal to the body support surface. The side elements are resiliently urged towards an unloaded position. The present invention also relates to methods of manufacturing beds.

  • Patent number: 11019933
    Abstract: The present invention relates to beds having a support surface defined by a plurality of support members (104, 204, 240). According to some aspects the support members are sprung (104, 204) and the bed includes a damping system (106, 206), for example a damping arm (124), for damping vibrations of the springs (118, 218). According to some aspects the support members (204, 240) have laterally extending pusher members (236, 238) arranged to engage with adjacent support members (204, 240); the pusher members (236, 238) comprising damping material (254). According to some aspects the support members (104, 204) are received by a guide member (320, 420) made up of two parts (320a, 320b, 420a, 420b) arranged to retain a spring by engaging between the coils of the spring (418). The present invention also relates to bed frames comprising a plurality of movable side elements (568, 768, 1068) mounted for movement in a direction substantially normal to the body support surface.

  • Patent number: 6721981
    Abstract: A body support apparatus, for example, a bed, includes a support surface defined by support members. Each support member is mounted for movement in a direction substantially normal to the support surface. Support members are so arranged that movement of any one of the support members in a direction substantially normal to the support surface and beyond a threshold distance relative to an adjacent support member causes movement in substantially the same direction of said adjacent support member. No movement of a support member is caused by the movement of an adjacent support member when the distance of relative movement is below the threshold distance. The support members are resiliently urged towards an unloaded position, by tension springs.
