A method for image analysis comprises receiving one or more images of a plurality of lesions captured from a body of a person, extracting one or more features of the plurality of lesions from the one or more images, analyzing the extracted one or more features, wherein the analyzing comprises determining a distance between at least two lesions with respect to the extracted one or more features, and determining whether any of the plurality of lesions is an outlier based on the analyzing.
摘要:
An embodiment of the invention receives by an interface a retinal image from a patient, and identifies by a feature extraction device vessel fragments in the retinal image. The vessel fragments include at least a portion of a major vessel and at least a portion of a branch connected to a major vessel. A processor computes estimated blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments with a blood flow velocity estimation model and determines actual blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments. An analysis engine compares the actual blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments to the estimated blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments. The analysis engine detects a candidate plaque affected vessel fragment when the estimated blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments differs from the actual blood flow velocities in the vessel fragments by a predetermined amount.
摘要:
A knowledge base is generated based on eye tracking, audio monitoring and image annotations, for determining image features from given images and sequences of image features to focus on in analyzing an image. An eye tracker monitors eye movements of a user analyzing an image and generates a sequence of eye movements. A user interface receives annotations on the image. Audio data received via a microphone is translated into text and keywords are extracted. The sequence of eye movements, the annotations and the keywords are correlated according to their time of occurrence. Image features are extracted from the image and mapped with the sequence of eye movements, the annotations and the keywords that are correlated. A recurrent neural network model is generated based on the mapped image features and predicts a likelihood of an expert image analyzer focusing on a feature in a given new image.

A method for computer-aided diagnosis of skin lesions includes obtaining a dermoscopic image, convolving the dermoscopic image in a plurality of convolutional layers, obtaining deconvolved outputs of at least two convolutional layers of the plurality of convolutional layers, obtaining side-output feature maps by applying loss functions to the deconvolved outputs of the at least two convolutional layers, obtaining a first concatenated feature map by concatenating the side-output feature maps with different first weights, obtaining a second concatenated feature map by concatenating the side-output feature maps with different second weights, and producing a final score map by convolving the first and second concatenated feature maps in a final convolutional layer followed by a loss layer. Also disclosed: a computer-readable medium embodying instructions for the method, and an apparatus configured to implement the method.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method obtains at least one image from which severity of a given pathological condition presented in the at least one image is to be classified. The method generates a hybrid image representation of the at least one obtained image. The hybrid image representation comprises a concatenation of a discriminative pathology histogram, a generative pathology histogram, and a fully connected representation of a trained baseline convolutional neural network. The hybrid image representation is used to train a classifier to classify the severity of the given pathological condition presented in the at least one image. One non-limiting example of a pathological condition whose severity can be classified with the above method is diabetic retinopathy.
摘要:
A method for segmenting a target image includes receiving the target image of an anatomical structure, registering a plurality of atlases to the target image, each of the atlases including an image and a plurality of labels corresponding to portions of the image, selecting a plurality of registered atlases, transferring the labels of selected registered atlases to the target image, combining the labels that are transferred to the target image using a fusion of a discriminative model and a generative model, and outputting a segmentation of the target image isolating the anatomical structure, wherein a segmentation of the target image is displayed.
摘要:
A method for a cloud-based feedback-driven image training and recognition includes receiving a set of expert annotations of a plurality of training images of a predetermined subject matter, wherein the expert annotations include a clinical diagnosis for each image or region of interest in an image, training one or more classification models from the set of expert annotations, testing the one or more classification models on a plurality of test images that are different from the training images, wherein each classification model yields a clinical diagnosis for each image and a confidence score for that diagnosis, and receiving expert classification result feedback regarding the clinical diagnosis for each image and a confidence score yielded by each classification model.
摘要:
An augmented reality display system used to diminish (for example, obscure, obfuscate, hide, make less distracting, block out, “white wash” and/or make less discernible) certain portions of a base image (for example, a user's view of a part of the real world as seen through eyeglasses). Some examples of visual subject matter that can be diminished include: (i) driver distraction phenomena; (ii) advertising; and/or (iii) subject matter the user is not authorized to view.
