  • Patent number: 11934212
    Abstract: A handheld computer device is configured to selectively receive a plurality of fluid output values from a paint sprayer and configured to operate in an accessible mode in which the handheld computer device is in a first location where wireless connectivity, via a continuous or near continuous communication path, to at least one of a network server or the paint sprayer is accessible or operate in an inaccessible mode in which the handheld computer device is in a second location out of range of the continuous or near continuous communication path to at least one of the network server or the paint sprayer.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20110218253
    Abstract: System(s) and method(s) are provided to enable imaging-based identification, detection, evaluation, and mapping of white matter microstructure and hemispheric organization of white matter in a central nervous system (CNS) structure afflicted by a neurological disease or disorder. Various embodiments exploit a set of diffusion tensor metrics to define a classification sub-space and determine a multivariate classifier through training data related to at least two groups of subjects: a first group of subjects afflicted by the neurological disease or neurological disorder, and a second group of subjects typically developing. The set of diffusion tensor metrics can be selected based at least on clinical information related to the neurological disease or neurological disorder and anatomy of CNS structure.

  • Patent number: 7570049
    Abstract: A method for estimating a value of a diffusion tensor includes obtaining, from a plurality of test subjects, DT-MRI data from which an initial estimate of the tensor can be derived. Values indicative of intra-subject variation and inter-subject variation in the data are then determined. These values are used to determine a subject-specific additive offset for adjusting the DT-MRI data.
