Publication number: 20230130555Abstract: A virtual training system and method are disclose. The system includes two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) image sensors, a biometric data sensor, a processor, and an output device. The 2D image sensor senses a 2D image of a user, and the 3D image sensor senses a 3D image of the user including a movement of the user. The biometric data sensor senses at least one biometric characteristic of the user. The processor generates feedback information in real time during a session relating to movement of the user compared to a standard form movement, which may be an exercise movement, a dance movement, a martial arts movement, or a physical therapy movement. Feedback is provided by the output device as an image of the user captured by at least one of the 2D image sensor and the 3D image sensor overlayed on an instructor avatar, which illustrates the standard form movement.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2021Publication date: April 27, 2023Inventors: Yibing Michelle WANG, Hongyu Wendy WANG

Patent number: 11521747Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product are provided for generating a predictive model. A processor(s) obtains a raw data set (peptide libraries) of patients designated as diagnosed/pre-diagnosed with a condition or not diagnosed with the condition. The processor(s) segments the raw data set into a pre-defined number of groups and separates out a holdout group. The processor(s) performs a principal component analysis on the remaining groups to identify, based on a frequency of features in the remaining groups, common features (principal components) in the remaining groups and weighs the common features based on frequency of occurrence. The processor(s) determines a smallest number of the principal components that yields a pre-defined level of validation accuracy. The processor(s) generates a predictive model, by utilizing the smallest number for a best fit in a logistic regression model. The predictive model provides binary outcomes.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2019Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Avijit Chatterjee, Wendy Wang

Publication number: 20200038878Abstract: For the purpose of preparing and isolating diamagnetic nanoparticles, we add magnetic field into the preparation processes, so that impurities that can be attracted to a magnet will go to the magnetic source. This enables diamagnetic nanoparticles get purified and contain no such impurities, so that they will be pushed away from the magnetic source. Some preparation processes use evaporation and condensation to prepare nanoparticles. In such processes, we may control the temperature so that lower evaporating metals, such as bismuth, will evaporate, but higher evaporating metals, such as iron, will stay solid and retain a strong magnetism, so that, when we apply magnetic field, we can prepare bismuth nanoparticles that do not contain lower evaporating metals for the preparation process.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2019Publication date: February 6, 2020Inventors: Huanchen Li, Wendy Wang
