Background: Face recognition has recently become an important task of computer vision, including a wide range of biometric and security applications. However, most existing face recognition systems are reported to be sensitive to image acquisition conditions, head position, illumination, etc. and ...

Summary Applications Face recognition using accurate 3D reconstructions from single images. Rapid modeling and prototyping - producing rough 3D models from images as a starting point for future refinement by artists. Automatically producing novel appearances (texture ...

Abstract Long scenes can be imaged by far away cameras, or by mosaicing multiple images from closer cameras scanning the scene. We address the case of a video camera scanning a scene while moving in a long path, e.g. scanning a city street from a driving car, or scanning a terrain from a low ...

Summary Error-free DNA synthesis from error-prone oligonucleotides. Long DNA molecules encoding novel genetic elements are in broad demand. Short oligonucleotides are used as building blocks to construct longer DNA molecules. The utility of synthetic DNA constructs in biology depends on their being ...

Summary Using this multiscale approach to conventional projection image reconstruction algorithms greatly reduces the time needed for image reconstruction while preserving and possibly improving image quality. This approach reduces the computational complexity as well as the number of processing ...

We have invented a novel framework and methods for the optimal selection and placement of anatomical and fiducial landmarks for image-guided neurosurgery. The method computes the rigid registration transformation that minimizes the Target Registration Error, and provides an accurate estimate of ...

Preserves fine details from original images when displayed on conventional devices Categories Imaging / Computer Graphics Development Stage Prototype implementation of the software Patent Status U.S. patent Granted 7,305,144 Market Size Overall digital imaging market ...

Novelty and Anomaly Detection in Large Sensor Networks Possible Applications: Financial data Health care Access and traffic control Computer networks Production enhancement and Root-Cause ...

Data security is becoming one of the most important issues of the new information driven applications. It is now essential to secure "Data in Motion" - the data while it moves across the network and securing the data at the edge points ("Data in Rest"). Even it is reasonable to think that the ...

The Invention The Algorithm for User Activity Anticipation is capable of anticipating the user’s next “click” with the mouse, therefore increasing the application’s efficiency. This is especially useful in applications that require a great deal of use of the mouse, such as video games, word ...

Summary Fusion and Alignment of discrete, non-overlapping moving images from different sources by aligning spatio-temporal changes in each sequence rather than in each image. This new technology may have applications in the field of surveillance, new generations of video cameras and ...

Summary A unique architecture for computer programs designed for solving specific problems in the fields of business and economics: the need to keep the identities of bidding parties private, while preserving the ability to compare bids (which demands disclosure of bidder's identity). This ...

Background: Most of the traffic in Internet networks belongs to TCP flows. The typical flow through an Internet router seems to be too complex to be fully analysed. Feedback mechanisms of TCP, numerous protocols and complex flow interactions, together with a variety of different topologies, imply a ...

Summary A computer program especially designed to facilitate the appropriate handling of all aspects of institutional IACUC administration, including protocol submission, review and approval, compliance, record-keeping, etc. This program greatly reduces "dead-time", as well as reduces man-hour ...

Visual cortex recruited to see using alternative senses, "soundscapes" and touch Categories Artificial vision, Medical applications Development Stage Prototype has been used to train blind individuals to “see” using sound and touch after several training sessions ...

A tom Chips are solid state devices used for trapping and manipulating cold neutral atoms. The atom-chip creates a micro-trap for atoms by means of magnetic fields. Generally, the quality of an atom chip operation is characterized by three rates: loss rate, heating rate and decoherence rate. In ...
