  • Patent number: 12339870
    Abstract: Systems and methods for data conversion from a source system to a target system. In some embodiments, the source system may comprise a plurality of source data structures, and the target system may comprise a target data structure. For each source data structure, a respective conversion score may be computed between the source data structure and the target data structure. The target data structure may be matched, based on the conversion scores, to a source data structure of the plurality of source data structures.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8391582
    Abstract: An embodiment of a scanning system is described including optical elements that direct an excitation beam at a probe array, detectors that receive reflected intensity data responsive to the excitation beam, where the reflected intensity data is responsive to a focusing distance between an optical element and the probe array, a transport frame that adjusts the focusing distance in a direction with respect to the probe array, an auto-focuser that determines a best plane of focus based upon characteristics of the reflected intensity data of at least two focusing distances where the detectors further receive pixel intensity values based upon detected emissions from a plurality of probe features disposed on the probe array at the best plane of focus, and an image generator that associates each of the pixel intensity values with at least one image pixel position of a probe array based upon one or more position correction values.
