Patent number: 7616590Abstract: A distributed tempero-spatial query service uses a plurality of service agents each having an assigned area of responsibility. The service agents are organized into a spatial hierarchy based upon each service agent's area of responsibility. The spatial hierarchy is distributed and hosted on each of the service agents. The spatial hierarchy enables matching of requests from subscribing agents with publishing agents based upon spatial attributes. The spatial hierarchy is dynamically maintained in a distributed manner on each of the service agents. The service agents can be arranged into a tree-based spatial hierarchy having a limited depth.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2005Date of Patent: November 10, 2009Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Ming Wan, Paul Murray, Charles A Erignac

Patent number: 7574024Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a method for determining a centerline through a region of interest in a 3D image dataset is provided. The method includes identifying the boundaries of the region of interest and identifying the endpoints of the region of interest. For those points within the boundaries, a penalty value which is a function of the proximity of the point to a boundary is determined. A centerline is then identified by the path connecting the endpoints which has the minimum penalized distance wherein the penalized distance reflects the actual accumulated pathlength and the penalties associated with the points along the path. From the centerline, branches of a complete skeleton can be established by determining branch endpoints and then finding the minimum penalized distance from each endpoint the centerline or another intersecting branch.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2001Date of Patent: August 11, 2009Assignee: The Research Foundation of State University of New YorkInventors: Ingmar Bitter, Ming Wan, Arie E.
