  • Publication number: 20250029720
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are deep-learning based systems, methods, and instrumentalities for medical decision-making. A system as described herein may implement an artificial neural network (ANN) that may include multiple encoder neural networks and a decoder neural network. The multiple encoder neural networks may be configured to receive multiple types of patient data (e.g., text and image based patient data) and generate respective encoded representations of the patient data. The decoder neural network (e.g., a transformer decoder) may be configured to receive the encoded representations and generate a medical decision, a medical summary, or a medical questionnaire based on the encoded representations. In examples, the decoder neural network may be configured to implement a large language model (LLM) that may be pre-trained for performing the aforementioned tasks.

  • Patent number: 10944920
    Abstract: Disclosed is a video switching method, a device, and a video patrol system. The method comprises: receiving a video switching instruction to determine a display device corresponding to a to-be-played video; determining whether there is a currently played video in the determined display device; if so, determining a task identifier corresponding to the currently played video; closing the currently played video according to the task identifier; and sending the video to be played to the display device for playing. When the video played in the display device needs to be switched, the task identifier corresponding to the currently played video in the display device is determined first, and the video is closed according to the task identifier. Then, the to-be-played video is sent to the display device for playing. This shows that the currently played video is normally shutdown, thereby avoiding an unknown error caused by abnormal closing of the video.
