Sheida Nabavi has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12387477
    Abstract: An apparatus for treating an abnormality includes a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium that includes a first convolutional neural network (CNN) having weights and a second CNN in parallel with the first CNN and sharing the weights, the second CNN being joined to the first neural network by a distance function. The medium includes instructions that when executed by the processor implements a method. The method includes receiving a first image dataset of an area of interest and processing the first image dataset using the first CNN and receiving a second image dataset of the area of interest obtained prior to the first image dataset and processing the second image dataset using the second CNN. The method also includes identifying the abnormality using an output of the distance function wherein the identifying influences treatment of the abnormality.

  • Publication number: 20230222659
    Abstract: A method includes receiving first data based on a region of interest of tissue. The first data may be captured to represent the tissue according to a first moment. The method also includes receiving second data based on the region of interest. The second data may be captured to represent the tissue according to a second moment different from the first moment. The method also includes determining features of the first data according to a first network. The first network may comprise weights. The method also includes determining features of the second data according to the weights. The method also includes determining an input based on the features of the first data and the features of the second data. The method may also include treating a patient or adjusting treatment of the patient diagnosed by one or more of these steps. An apparatus for performing the method is disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7948708
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method comprise a magnetoresistive head configured to respond to magnetization states of patterned cells formed on a patterned medium. The magnetoresistive head detects the magnetization states of at least two patterned cells formed on a patterned medium. The magnetoresistive head generates a readback signal based on the magnetization state of the at least two patterned cells. A detector circuit coupled to the head determines a bit pattern corresponding to the readback signal. A processor circuit coupled to the detector circuit determines positional information associated with the magnetoresistive head relative to the at least two patterned cells based on the bit pattern. The system further comprises a patterned medium.
