Methods and systems for initiating and conducting a customized computer-enabled brain research study
Patent number: 11515014Abstract: An illustrative research support computing system maintains subject data representative of attributes for research subjects included in a potential subject pool for potential research studies. The system receives, from a client device, an input dataset representative of: 1) a set of parameters defining a research study to be conducted with respect to a research subject group, and 2) a set of criteria for research subjects that are to be included in the research subject group. The system designates a research subject included in the potential subject pool for inclusion in the research subject group based on the set of criteria, and receives research data detected for the research subject in accordance with the set of parameters. The system also provides an output dataset generated based on the research data detected for the research subject in accordance with the set of parameters. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: HI LLCInventors: Husam Katnani, Antonio H. Lara, Alejandro Ojeda, Julien Dubois, Viktoria Rojkova, Bryan Johnson, Gabriel Lerner -
Patent number: 11451722Abstract: The invention relates to a method for acquiring an image by an imager (20) comprising a matrix of pixels configured to generate an electric response when exposed to an incident light flux travelling through an optical path (21) in which is arranged a wavefront correction element (22), comprising the following steps: 1) initiating the exposure of the pixels to the incident light flux; 2) for a plurality of iterations during the exposure: 2.1) non-destructive reading of the electric responses of pixels of a region of interest; 2.2) determining an evolution of the spatial distribution of pixels in logarithmic mode previous iteration with respect to the previous iteration; 2.3) based on said evolution, establishing a command for the wavefront correction element (22) in order to correct the wavefront; 2.4) configuring the wavefront correction element, 3) reading the electric responses of the pixels resulting in an image.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2019Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignees: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE, SORBONNE UNIVERSITE, ECOLE NORMALE SUPERIEURE, UNIVERSITE DE PARIS, UNIVERSITE DE BOURGOGNE, OBSERVATOIRE DE PARISInventors: David Darson, Julien Dubois, Francois Colas

Patent number: 10924687Abstract: High dynamic range (HDR) images are generated on the basis of a plurality of images obtained by non-destructive reading of an image sensor, called NDRO images. An HDR image generation method includes: the determination of a criterion of desired quality for the HDR image; at least two non-destructive readings of the sensor delivering at least two successive NDRO images; the selection, as a function of the criterion of desired quality, of the first and of the last NDRO image to be used to generate the HDR image; the generation of the HDR image on the basis of information extracted from a series of successive NDRO images starting with the first and terminating with the last NDRO image to be used; the storage of a single image at one and the same time throughout the entire HDR generation phase.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2017Date of Patent: February 16, 2021Assignees: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE, SORBONNE UNIVERSITE, UNIVERSITE PARIS DIDEROT—PARIS 7, ECOLE NORMALE SUPERIEURE, UNIVERSITE DE BOURGOGNEInventors: David Darson, Julien Dubois, Barthélémy Heyrman, Dominique Ginhac, Mustapha Bouderbane
