  • Publication number: 20200074522
    Abstract: A method and system for replacing a hardware device is provided. The method includes detecting current utilization attributes of an Internet of things (IOT) device connected to a server device through a network. Recommended utilization attributes of the IOT device are retrieved and analyzed with respect to the current utilization attributes. It is determined that the current utilization attributes do not equal a threshold value associated with the recommended utilization attributes and optimal utilization attributes for replacing the IOT device are determined. A network based search for locating a replacement IOT device is executed and associated results are presented to a user. A resulting process for securing the replacement device is executed.

  • Patent number: 10238329
    Abstract: Exemplary method, system and computer-accessible medium can be provided for diagnosing at least one disease and/or a subtype within a disease. For example, it is possible to determine at least one region of interest, and obtain a plurality of data points associated with each of such region(s) of interest. It is also possible to identify a particular pattern of the data points across each of such region(s) of interest. Further, it is possible, e.g., using a computer arrangement, to determine a likelihood of the disease(s) and/or the subtype by comparing the particular pattern to at least one known pattern.

  • Publication number: 20070255751
    Abstract: A computerized method, program product, and a service that resolves the business problem by enabling an automated and simplified process to generate DDL and JAVA classes directly from a MOF definition. The method, program product, and service creates useful computing artifacts from a set of abstract and generic specifications described in the MOF format. The computing artifacts include a DDL database schema having tables that accurately reflect the object-oriented hierarchy of the objects described in the MOF format; JAVA classes that correspond to the objects defined in the MOF format; object-to-relational (O/R) mapping file that maps the JAVA classes and their attributes to the tables and columns in the DDL database schema; SQL insert statements for loading the data of enumerated list values into the tables and the JAVA classes; database design reports; and O/R name translation reference reports.

  • Publication number: 20070089211
    Abstract: The present invention is related to the development of a novel, distinct high herb and artemisinin yielding genotype of Artemisia annua obtained through systematic marker assisted breeding followed by selection of uniform population in a methodical way wherein the genotype is distinct, uniform and stably maintainable by continuous rouging of off types in the population using DNA marker at early seedling stage from nursery itself and suitable for commercial cultivation.

  • Patent number: 7127093
    Abstract: A system and method for integrated image registration of cardiac magnetic resonance perfusion data are provided, where the system includes an estimation unit for estimating an edge parameter, a registration unit in signal communication with the estimation unit for registering the edge parameter in correspondence with a template-match between pixels in a first input image and pixels in a second input image, and a CPU in signal communication with said estimation unit and said registration unit for detecting a changed pixel location in accordance with said registration when the entropy of said second image is increased; and where the corresponding method for integrated image registration is of cardiac magnetic resonance perfusion data includes providing a contoured region of interest on a first image having a plurality of pixels, receiving a second image corresponding to a time other than that of said first image, calculating pixel intensities for the second image, estimating edge parameters for at least one of

  • Patent number: 6882743
    Abstract: There is provided a method for automatically segmenting lung nodules in a three-dimensional (3D) Computed Tomography (CT) volume dataset. An input is received corresponding to a user-selected point near a boundary of a nodule. A model is constructed of the nodule from the user-selected point, the model being a deformable circle having a set of parameters ? that represent a shape of the nodule. Continuous parts of the boundary and discontinuities of the boundary are estimated until the set of parameters ? converges, using dynamic programming and Expectation Maximization (EM). The nodule is segmented, based on estimates of the continuous parts of the boundary and the discontinuities of the boundary.
