  • Patent number: 12211198
    Abstract: A method for detecting image abnormities, applied in an electronic device, and stored in a storage medium are provided, obtains images for analysis. The images are divided into a plurality of first divided images and a plurality of second divided images by reference to image size. A first abnormity score is obtained by inputting the image into a first pre-trained abnormity detection model. A plurality of second abnormity scores are obtained by inputting the first divided images into a second pre-trained abnormity detection model. A plurality of third abnormity scores are obtained by inputting the second divided images into a third pre-trained abnormity detection model. An abnormal type of the image is determined according to a preset abnormity database in response to an abnormity detected in the image, the method improves accuracy of defect detection.

  • Patent number: 10668122
    Abstract: The Toona sinensis extract of the present invention is prepared using supercritical fluid technique, wherein the method includes steps of: (a) drying the leaves of T. sinensis; (b) pulverizing the leaves as particles; and (c) extracting the particles with supercritical carbon dioxide to obtain the T. sinensis extract. This supercritical T. sinensis extract not only can decrease blood sugar level, but also promotes lipid degradation, inhibits the formation of huge lipid droplet and improves the metabolic symptoms. Accordingly, the T. sinensis extract further is able to be prepared as food supplement and pharmaceuticals.

  • Patent number: 9932539
    Abstract: A method for extracting lipid from wet biomass includes a step in which a wet biomass and a first solvent are mixed to prepare a mixture. The method continues with a step in which said mixture is separated to obtain a solution containing said first solvent and a concentrated biomass. The method continues with a step in which a liquefied gas is added into said concentrated biomass subjected to mechanical dispersion means to obtain lipid.

  • Patent number: 9296979
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flower essential oil extraction method. The flower essential oil extraction method includes (a) placing flowers in a high-pressure treatment tank; (b) introducing pressurized liquid medium into the high-pressure-treatment tank so as to reach a predetermined pressure, wherein the pressure is maintained for a predetermined period of time at a predetermined temperature, then the pressure is reduced to atmospheric pressure; and (c) placing the flowers subjected to high-pressure treatment in an extraction tank, wherein flowers are extracted with a low-polarity solvent to obtain an extract. By using the flower essential oil extraction method of the present disclosure, the flowers do not need to be subjected to a dehydration process, thus the energy cost is reduced, and more ingredients can be retained.
