  • Patent number: 10388020
    Abstract: Techniques for segmentation of organs and tumors and cells in image data include revising a position of a boundary by evaluating an evolution equation that includes differences of amplitude values for voxels on the boundary from a statistical metric of amplitude of voxels inside, and from a statistical metric of amplitude of voxels outside, for a limited region that lies within a distance r of the boundary. The distance r is small compared to a perimeter of the first boundary. Some techniques include determining a revised position of multiple boundaries by evaluating an evolution equation that includes differences in a first topographical distance from a first marker and a second topographical distance from a second marker for each voxel on the boundary, and also includes at least one other term related to boundary detection.

  • Publication number: 20160117290
    Abstract: The present invention provides a terminal and an information interaction method. The terminal comprises an identification generation unit and a notification unit. The identification generation unit generates a request message identification when receiving a request sent out by any group member of a social networking service group, and controls a display unit of the terminal to display the request message identification at a preset position of a page of the social networking service group. The notification unit receives a response operation performed by another group member on the request message identification, and notifies the any group member of a response message.
