    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an imaging system and method. Specifically, an imaging system comprises: a positioning image acquisition unit, configured to acquire a positioning image of a scanning object; a monitoring slice image acquisition unit, configured to determine a key point corresponding to the position of a target region of interest in the positioning image by using a neural network, and acquire a monitoring slice image of the scanning object at the position of the key point; and a target region-of-interest segmentation unit, configured to segment the monitoring slice image to obtain the target region of interest. The present disclosure can accurately acquire the position of the monitoring slice, and can accurately obtain the target region of interest through segmentation by a cascaded coarse segmentation and fine segmentation.

  • Publication number: 20220383491
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a tissue boundary determination apparatus and method. The tissue boundary determination method includes acquiring multiple slice images of multiple positions of a tissue to be examined, determining, with regard to at least one first selected slice image of the multiple slice images, a tissue boundary on the first selected slice image, and determining, according to the tissue boundary on the first selected slice image, tissue boundaries on a predetermined number of other slice images adjacent to the first selected slice image. Therefore, an accurate tissue (such as malignant tumor) boundary may be acquired efficiently so as to provide a reference basis for analysis on internal and external tissue of a tumor.

  • Patent number: 10387737
    Abstract: A system for rating a rider of a shared autonomous vehicle (SAV) may include an image reception module, an image comparison module, an object determination module, and a passenger rating module. The image reception module may be configured to obtain first and second images of a cabin of the SAV at different times. The image comparison module may be configured to compare the first image with the second image to provide comparison data. The object determination module may be configured to (i) identify an object in the cabin of the SAV based on the comparison data and (ii) classify the identified object as a particular type of object to provide a classified object. The passenger rating module may be configured to adjust a rider rating associated with the rider based on the classified object.

  • Patent number: 10273973
    Abstract: A centrifugal compressor includes an asymmetric self-recirculating casing treatment that includes, on an inner face of a casing 10, a suction ring groove 1, a ring guide channel 2 and a back-flow ring groove 3 to form a self-recirculating channel. An axial distance Sr from an upstream end face of the suction ring groove 1 to an impeller full blade leading edge 4 or a width br of the suction ring groove 1 is represented as A·sin(?+?0)+A0 and is distributed in a sinusoidal shape in a circumferential direction, an initial phase angle ?0 is in a range of 0°??0?360°, and a circumferential angle ? of the casing 10 has a definition range of ?0????0+360°. In the expression, A denotes amplitude of distribution of the axial distance Sr or the width br, and A0 denotes an average of the axial distance Sr or the width br.

  • Patent number: 10240612
    Abstract: A centrifugal compressor is disclosed. The centrifugal compressor comprises an inlet and an impeller comprising a hub and blades. The inlet is for conveying flow to the impeller comprising guide means and is arranged to guide the flow through the inlet to induce swirl in the flow adjacent tips of the blades, the direction of swirl being the direction of rotation of the blades, without substantially disturbing flow adjacent the hub.

  • Patent number: 9816522
    Abstract: A centrifugal compressor has a casing 7. In the casing 7 is formed a back-flow channel 9 to return fluid from a downstream position of an impeller full blade leading edge 6a to an upstream position of the impeller full blade leading edge 6a. The back-flow channel 9 includes a suction ring groove 9a and a back-flow ring groove 9b. The suction ring groove opens at the downstream position on the inner face 7a of the casing 7, and extends in the circumferential direction. The back-flow ring groove opens at the upstream position on the inner face 7a, and extends in the circumferential direction. Distribution in the circumferential direction of the axial-direction position of the suction ring groove 9a or a width of the suction ring groove 9a is asymmetric with reference to the rotation axis.
