  • Patent number: 11940519
    Abstract: A training method for training neural networks to determine a magnetic susceptibility distribution of a sample may include: storing a simulated magnetic susceptibility map of the sample, generating a modified magnetic susceptibility map by combining an influence of one or more external magnetic susceptibility sources with the simulated magnetic susceptibility map and storing the modified magnetic susceptibility maps. The method may include generating a first training image by applying a quantitative susceptibility mapping model the modified magnetic susceptibility map and storing the first training image, applying the first neural network to the first image and a second neural network to an output of the first neural network and changing network parameters of the first and the second neural network depending on a deviation of an output of the second artificial neural network from the simulated magnetic susceptibility map.

  • Patent number: 7746233
    Abstract: A safety switch, which is particularly intended for monitoring a guard door on an automated installation, has an actuator and a sensor. The actuator comprises an actuator antenna and the sensor comprises a sensor antenna. The actuator and the sensor are coupled to one another like a transformer, in particular like a transponder, when the guard door is in the closed position. According to one aspect of the invention, the sensor antenna has a magnetic directional characteristic which allows transformer coupling with the actuator in at least two mutually perpendicular spatial directions as seen from the sensor antenna.
