  • Patent number: 11631175
    Abstract: A multi-label heat map generating system is operable to receive a plurality of medical scans and a corresponding plurality of medical labels that each correspond to one of a set of abnormality classes. A computer vision model is generated by training on the medical scans and the medical labels. Probability matrix data, which includes a set of image patch probability values that each indicate a probability that a corresponding one of the set of abnormality classes is present in each of a set of image patches, is generated by performing an inference function that utilizes the computer vision model on a new medical scan. Preliminary heat map visualization data can be generated for transmission to a client device based on the probability matrix data. Heat map visualization data can be generated via a post-processing of the preliminary heat map visualization data to mitigate heat map artifacts.

  • Patent number: 11628656
    Abstract: An optically anisotropic polymer thin film includes a crystallizable polymer and an additive configured to interact with the polymer (e.g., via ?-? interactions) to facilitate chain alignment and, in some examples, create a higher crystalline content within the polymer thin film. The polymer thin film may be characterized by a bimodal molecular weight distribution where the molecular weight of the additive may be less than approximately 50% of the molecular weight of the crystallizable polymer. Example crystallizable polymers include polyethylene naphthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene naphthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, as well as derivatives thereof. Example additives, which may occupy up to approximately 10 wt. % of the polymer thin film, include aromatic ester oligomers, aromatic amide oligomers, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, for example. The optically anisotropic polymer thin film may be characterized by a refractive index greater than approximately 1.

  • Patent number: 11626194
    Abstract: An intensity transform augmentation system is operable to receive a training set of medical scans. Random intensity transformation function parameters are generated for each medical scan of the training set of medical scans. A plurality of augmented images are generated, where each of the plurality of augmented images is generated by performing a intensity transformation function on one of the training set of medical scans by utilizing the random intensity transform parameters generated for the one of the training set of medical scan. A computer vision model is generated by performing a training step on the plurality of augmented images. A new medical scan is received via the receiver. Inference data is generated by performing an inference function that utilizes the computer vision model on the new medical scan. The inference data is transmitted to a client device for display via a display device.
