  • Patent number: 12136286
    Abstract: Keypoint extraction is done for extracting keypoints from images of documents. Based on different keypoint extraction approaches used by existing keypoint extraction mechanisms, number of keypoints extracted and related parameters vary. Disclosed herein is a method and system for keypoint extraction from images of one or more documents. In this method, a reference image and a test image of a document are collected as input. During the keypoint extraction, based on types of characters present in words extracted from the document images, a plurality of words are extracted. Further, all connected components in each of the extracted words are identified. Further, it is decided whether keypoints are to be searched in a first component or in a last component of all the identified connected components, and accordingly searches and extracts at least four of the keypoints from the test image and the corresponding four keypoints from the reference image.

  • Patent number: 12131466
    Abstract: State of the art deep network based Universal Lesion Detection (ULD) techniques inherently depend on large number of datasets for training the systems. Moreover, these system are specifically trained for lesion detection in organs of a Region of interest (RoI) of a body. Thus, requires retraining when the RoI varies. Embodiments herein disclose a method and system for domain knowledge augmented multi-head attention based robust universal lesion detection. The method utilizes minimal number of Computer Tomography (CT) scan slices to extract maximum information using organ agnostic HU windows and a convolution augmented attention module for a computationally efficient ULD with enhanced prediction performance.

  • Publication number: 20240355480
    Abstract: A system for evaluating mental health of patients includes a memory and a control system. The memory contains executable code storing instructions for performing a method. The control system is coupled to the memory and includes one or more processors. The control system is configured to execute the machine executable code to cause the control system to perform the method: A selection of answers associated with a patient is received. The selection of answers corresponds to each question in a series of questions from mental health questionnaires. Unprocessed MRI data are received. The unprocessed MRI data correspond to a set of MRI images of a biological structure associated with the patient. The unprocessed MRI data is processed to output a set of MRI features. Using a machine learning model, the selection of answers and the set of MRI features are processed to output a mental health indication of the patient.

  • Patent number: 12046062
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to intelligent visual reasoning over graphical illustrations using a MAC unit. Prior arts use visual attention to map particular words in a question to specific areas in an image to memorize the corresponding answers, thereby resulting in a limited capability to answer questions of a specific type. The present disclosure incorporates the MAC unit to enable reasoning capabilities and accordingly attend to an area in the image to find the answer. The present disclosure therefore allows generalizing over a possible set of questions with varying complexities so that an unseen question can also be answered correctly based on the reasoning methods that it has learned. The system and method of the present disclosure can be used for understanding of visual information when processing documents like business reports, research papers, consensus reports etc. containing charts and reduce the time spent in manual analysis.

  • Patent number: 12039641
    Abstract: Traditional systems that enable extracting information from Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) lack accuracy due to existing noise in the images or require a significant volume of annotated symbols for training if deep learning models that provide good accuracy are utilized. Conventional few-shot/one-shot learning approaches require a significant number of training tasks for meta-training prior. The present disclosure provides a method and system that utilizes the one-shot learning approach that enables symbol recognition using a single instance per symbol class which is represented as a graph with points (pixels) sampled along the boundaries of different symbols present in the P&ID and subsequently, utilizes a Graph Convolutional Neural Network (GCNN) or a GCNN appended to a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for symbol classification. Accordingly, given a clean symbol image for each symbol class, all instances of the symbol class may be recognized from noisy and crowded P&IDs.

  • Patent number: 12002590
    Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing machine learning to generate a trans-diagnostic classifier that is operative to concurrently diagnose a plurality of different mental health disorders using a single trans-diagnostic questionnaire that includes a plurality of questions (e.g., 17 questions). Machine learning techniques are used to process labeled training data to build statistical models that include trans-diagnostic item-level questions as features to create a screen to classify groups of subjects as either healthy or as possibly having a mental health disorder. A subset of questions is selected from the multiple self-administered mental health questionnaires and used to autonomously screen subjects across multiple mental health disorders without physician involvement, optionally remotely and repeatedly, in a short amount of time.

  • Publication number: 20240020834
    Abstract: The present disclosure detects lesions in different datasets using a semi-supervised domain adaptation manner with very few labeled target samples. Conventional approaches suffer due to domain-gap between source and target domain. Initially, the system receives an input image, and extracts a plurality of multi-scale feature maps from the input image. Further, a classification map is generated based on the plurality of multi-scale feature maps. Further, a 4D vector corresponding to each of a plurality of foreground pixels is computed. Further, an objectness score corresponding the plurality of foreground pixels is computed. After computing the objectness score, a centerness score is computed for each of the plurality of foreground pixels using a single centerness network. Further, an updated objectness score is computed for each of the plurality of foreground. Finally, a plurality of multi-sized lesions in the input image are detected using a trained few-shot adversarial lesion detector network.

  • Patent number: 11868387
    Abstract: State of art techniques that utilize spatial association based Table structure Recognition (TSR) have limitation in selecting minimal but most informative word pairs to generate digital table representation. Embodiments herein provide a method and system for TSR from an table image via deep spatial association of words using optimal number of word pairs, analyzed by a single classifier to determine word association. The optimal number of word pairs are identified by utilizing immediate left neighbors and immediate top neighbors approach followed redundant word pair elimination, thus enabling accurate capture of structural feature of even complex table images via minimal word pairs.

  • Patent number: 11651150
    Abstract: The need for extracting information trapped in unstructured document images is becoming more acute. A major hurdle to this objective is that these images often contain information in the form of tables and extracting data from tabular sub-images presents a unique set of challenges. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods that implement a deep learning network for both table detection and structure recognition, wherein interdependence between table detection and table structure recognition are exploited to segment out the table and column regions. This is followed by semantic rule-based row extraction from the identified tabular sub-regions.
