  • Publication number: 20170085732
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a machine, a method and a computer program product for partial information capture and processing. A touch input that draws a pattern can be detected on a lid of a machine, where the lid is touch-sensitive and is operable to cover an object to be processed. Specifically, the lid allows a user to see at least a part of the object. In response to detecting the touch input on the lid, a part of the object is identified based on the pattern. Then the machine generates a processing result that only contains the identified part of the object.

  • Patent number: 9444550
    Abstract: Flexible VON provisioning may include calculating a candidate mapping pattern to satisfy a virtual optical network (VON) demand based on virtual-to-physical node mapping choices. A distance-adaptive routing and spectral slot assignment evaluation of the candidate mapping pattern may be performed. When the VON demand is satisfied by the candidate mapping pattern, the candidate mapping pattern may be added to a valid mapping patterns list. A final mapping pattern may be selected from the valid mapping patterns list, the final mapping pattern having one of a lowest slot layer and a smallest overall slot usage on the valid mapping patterns list. Then, network resources may be reserved based on the final mapping pattern selected to service the VON demand.

  • Publication number: 20160033607
    Abstract: In a magnetic resonance imaging method and apparatus, the scanner is operated with a multi-echo sequence in order to acquire k-space data of a multi-echo magnetic resonance signal, and the k-space data are used to reconstruct a magnetic resonance image. The multi-echo magnetic resonance signal is an asymmetric multi-echo magnetic resonance signal, and the asymmetric multi-echo magnetic resonance signal includes N asymmetric echo magnetic resonance signals, wherein N is greater than or equal to 2. Asymmetric echo magnetic resonance signals can be acquired in a dual-echo steady-state sequence, so that scanning time is reduced and the degree of comfort of a subject is improved because the magnetization process reaches a steady state quickly so the magnetic resonance signal is less affected by inhomogeneities that may exist in the basic magnetic field or a gradient magnetic field, and the intensity of the magnetic resonance signal is increased.

  • Publication number: 20150355301
    Abstract: In an MRI method and apparatus a 3D dual echo magnetic resonance scan is performed to acquire two sets of k-space data corresponding to the two echoes, respectively. A 2D CAIPIRINHA undersampling method as applied to the two sets of k-space data to extract two sets of sampling data, respectively. The two sets of sampling data are used to reconstruct two initial magnetic resonance images. A final magnetic resonance image is synthesized from the two initial magnetic resonance images. Because staggering is carried out in the PE or SL direction when the 2D CAIPIRINHA undersampling method is applied to a 3D scan sequence, aliasing in parallel imaging can be controlled, so that a greater area in the center of the field of view (FOV) is undisturbed by aliasing. At the same time, coil sensitivity is increased, enabling further acceleration. Thirdly, the 2D CAIPIRINHA undersampling method generally uses a small acceleration factor, thereby ensuring a high signal to noise ratio.
