Publication number: 20250022253Abstract: A discrete attribute value dataset is obtained that is associated with a plurality of probe spots each assigned a different probe spot barcode. The dataset comprises spatial projections, each comprising images of a biological sample. Each image includes a corresponding plurality of discrete attribute values for the probe spots. Each such value is associated with a probe spot in the plurality of probes spots based on the probe spot barcodes. The dataset is clustered using the discrete attribute values, or dimension reduction components thereof, for a plurality of loci at each respective probe spot across the images of the projections thereby assigning each probe spot to a cluster in a plurality of clusters. Morphological patterns are identified from the spatial arrangement of the probe spots in the various clusters.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2024Publication date: January 16, 2025Inventors: Jeffrey Clark MELLEN, Jasper STAAB, Kevin J.

Publication number: 20240347137Abstract: A visualization system comprising processing cores, memory, and a display performs a visualization method by obtaining a block of data. The data represents a single-cell characteristic of cells in a plurality of cells across each bin in a plurality of bins. Each bin maps to a different portion of a reference genome. The cells are clustered based upon the single-cell characteristic across the plurality of bins, thereby forming a tree structure that includes a current root node, a plurality of intermediate nodes, and the plurality of cells. Th plurality of cells constitute terminal nodes in the tree structure and each respective intermediate node has a corresponding plurality of daughter nodes, each daughter node being an intermediate node or a cell. The single-cell characteristic is plotted for the current root node of the tree on the screen using the dataset, across all or the portion of the plurality of bins.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Jeffrey Mellen, Kevin J.

Patent number: 12062418Abstract: A dataset is obtained comprising data blocks, each representing a different characteristic, for a plurality of cells across a plurality of bins, each bin representing a different portion of a reference sequence. Cells are clustered on one such characteristic across the bins thereby forming a tree that includes root, intermediate, and terminal nodes, where the cells are terminal nodes and intermediate nodes have daughter nodes, themselves being intermediate nodes or a cell. A subset of the tree is displayed that includes the root and leaves, each leaf representing an intermediate node or a cell. A heat map of the characteristic is also displayed, the map including a segment for each leaf, across the bins. When a segment represents an intermediate node, it is an average of the characteristic across daughters of the node. Graphs of characteristics for the root across the bins are also displayed.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2023Date of Patent: August 13, 2024Assignee: 10X GENOMICS, INC.Inventors: Jeffrey Mellen, Kevin J.

Publication number: 20210155982Abstract: Systems and methods for spatial analysis of analytes include placing a sample on a substrate having fiducial markers and capture spots. Then, an image of the sample is acquired and sequence reads are obtained from the capture spots. Each capture probe plurality in a set of capture probe pluralities is (i) at a different capture spot, (ii) directly or indirectly associates with analytes from the sample and (iii) has a unique spatial barcode. The sequencing reads serve to detect the analytes. Sequencing reads include a spatial barcode of the corresponding capture probe plurality. Spatial barcodes localize reads to corresponding capture spots, thereby dividing them into subsets, each subset for a respective capture spot. Fiducial markers facilitate a composite representation comprising (i) the image aligned to the capture spots and (ii) a representation of each subset of sequence reads at respective positions within the image mapping to the corresponding capture spots.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2020Publication date: May 27, 2021Inventors: Yifeng Yin, Zachary Bent, Stephen Williams, Ian Fiddes, Jeffrey Clark Mellen, Jasper Staab, Kevin J.

Patent number: 6745371Abstract: Performance of an integrated circuit design, whether embodied as a design encoding or as a fabricated integrated circuit, can be improved by selectively substituting low Vt transistors in a way that prioritizes substitution opportunities based on multi-path timing analysis and evaluates such opportunities based on one or more substitution constraints. By valuing, in a prioritization of substitution opportunities, contributions for all or substantially all timing paths through the substitution opportunity that violate a max-time constraint, repeated passes through a timing analysis phase can be advantageously avoided or limited. In addition, by recognizing one or more constraints on actual low Vt substitutions, particular noise-oriented constraints, the scope of post substitution design analysis can be greatly reduced. In some realizations, substitutions are performed so long as a leakage current budget is not expended.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2002Date of Patent: June 1, 2004Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: George K.
