Abstract: A reading machine that operates in various modes includes image correction processing is described. The reading machine operates in different modes that optimize performance for specific uses of the reading machine. The reading machine receives data that specifies a mode to use for processing an image. The reading machine accesses a knowledge base to provide data to the machine for the specified mode, with the data including specific target visual elements that are expected to be encountered in processing images for the specified mode. The reading machine captures one or several images and processes the one or several images to identify one or more of the target elements in the image using information obtained from the knowledge base.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of performing analysis (such as patent analysis) on data derived from a web-based search engine pursuant to a search query includes in one embodiment causing display, in a first element of a patent analytics web page, in a digital computing device, of search results content served by the search engine. The embodiment further includes, in a first computer process, analyzing data associated with the search results content according to criteria (which optionally may be specified by a user when specifying the search query) to produce analysis results and in a second computer process, causing display of the analysis results. A related apparatus is also provided.

Abstract: Techniques for operating a reading machine are disclosed. The techniques include forming an N-dimensional features vector based on features of an image, the features corresponding to characteristics of at least one object depicted in the image, representing the features vector as a point in n-dimensional space, where n corresponds to N, the number of features in the features vector and comparing the point in n-dimensional space to a centroid that represents a cluster of points in the n-dimensional space corresponding to a class of objects to determine whether the point belongs in the class of objects corresponding to the centroid.

Abstract: A garment accessory includes a member having first and second ends, with the length of the member between the first and second ends being less than the circumference of a subject that the member is configured for and a pair of fastener mechanisms disposed in proximity to the first and second ends of the member, the fastener mechanisms configured to attach the member to an article of clothing worn by a subject. The garment accessory also includes at least a pair of sensors supported by the member with the sensors being at least one of ECG sensors, motion sensors, body temperature sensors and impedance plethysmography sensors.

Abstract: A garment for ambulatory, physiological monitoring of a patient includes a belt, having first and second end portion with closures at the end portions to wrap around a user's chest, a strap having a first end coupled to a portion of the belt with the strap having a second end, a pair of shoulder strap portions each shoulder strap portion having a first end coupled together at the second end of the strap and a second end, and a back portion that joins the second ends of the pair of shoulder strap portions, with at least one of the belt, strap portions and back portion having an accommodation for carrying a sensor. Other embodiments are described.

Abstract: A reading machine includes an image input device including a lens and a polarizer disposed over the lens, a flash and a second polarizer disposed over the flash. The image input device also includes a computing device coupled to the image input device for capturing images, the computing device, including a processor to execute instructions and a computer program product residing on a computer readable medium, the computer program product comprising instructions for causing the processor to process the captured images to recognize features in the captured images.
