  • Publication number: 20230016464
    Abstract: The current disclosure provides methods and systems for visualizing, comparing, and navigating through, labeled image sequences. In one example, a degree of variation between a plurality of labels for an image in a sequence of images may be encoded as a comparison metric, and the comparison metric for each image may be graphed as a function of image position in the sequence of images, thereby providing a contextually rich view of label variation as a function of progression through the sequence of images. Further, the encoded variation of image labels may be used to automatically flag inconsistently labeled images, wherein the flagged images may be highlighted in a graphical user interface presented to a user, pruned from a training dataset, or a loss associated with the flagged image may be scaled based on the encoded variation during training of a machine learning model.

  • Publication number: 20220079763
    Abstract: A modular variable blade augment including an augment component and a blade component. The blade component includes a buttress portion and a neck portion, with the neck portion having a body segment and a face segment that is contoured for mating engagement with an outer surface of the acetabular shell. The augment component has a first opening sized and shaped to receive insertion of the body segment, and which is also sized to accommodate selective adjustment of linear and angular orientations of the blade component relative to the augment component when the body segment is positioned in the first opening. Additionally, the body segment has a length that is sized to facilitate direct contact of the face segment with the acetabular shell when the modular variable blade augment is in an assembled configuration. Further, cement can be injected into the internal cavity to unitize the connection between the acetabular shell and the blade component.

  • Patent number: 9931210
    Abstract: A variable angle blade augment including an augment component and a blade component. The blade component includes a buttress portion and a neck portion, with the neck portion having a body segment and a face segment that is contoured for mating engagement with an outer surface of the acetabular shell. The augment component has a first opening sized and shaped to receive insertion of the body segment, and which is also sized to accommodate selective adjustment of, when the body segment is positioned in the first opening, linear and angular orientations of the blade component relative to the augment component. Additionally, the body segment has a length that is sized to facilitate direct contact of the face segment with the acetabular shell when the variable angle blade augment is in an assembled configuration. Further, cement can be injected into the internal cavity to unitize the connection between the acetabular shell and the blade component.

  • Publication number: 20170192628
    Abstract: This disclosure provides for a system and method for managing network-connected industrial assets. A user may request monitored data for one or more of the network-connected industrial assets using a client device that is communicatively coupled to an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) machine. The IIoT machine monitors and records data for various metrics for one or more industrial assets communicatively coupled to the IIoT machine. Using the client device, the user can request the display of various views of the one or more industrial assets including a hierarchical tree structure and a topology view. Furthermore, the hierarchical tree structure and topology view are designed to be simultaneously displayed by the client device so that the user can view information about a selected industrial asset from either the hierarchical tree structure, the topology view, or both.
