摘要:
An image processing device and method for classifying symbols, such as text, in a video stream employs a back propagation neural network (BPNN) whose feature space is derived from size, translation, and rotation invariant shape-dependent features. Various example feature spaces are discussed such as regular and invariant moments and an angle histogram derived from a Delaunay triangulation of a thinned, thresholded, symbol. Such feature spaces provide a good match to BPNN as a classifier because of the poor resolution of characters in video streams.

A video indexing system analyzes contents of source video and develops a visual table of contents using selected images. The source video is analyzed to detect video cuts from one scene to another, and static scenes. Keyframes are selected for each significant scene. A keyframe filtering process filters out less desired frames including, for example, unicolor frames, or those frames having a same object as a primary focus or one primary focuses. A visual index is created from those frames remaining after the keyframe filtering and stored for retrieval. The visual index may be retrieved by a user who may then display the visual index on a display. The user may select one of the frames displayed in the visual index and the source video may be manually (by the user) or automatically advanced to that frame of the source video. Additionally, a user may print the visual index.

Signatures from MPEG or Motion JPEG encoded video clips are extracted based on the luminance, chrominance, and motion vector values. The signatures are stored in a database, along with corresponding location, size, and time length information. The signature of a query video clip, also encoded in the MPEG or Motion JPEG format, is extracted. The signature of the query video clip is compared with the signatures stored in the meta database, with video clips having signatures similar to the signature of the query video clip identified. The video clips are then retrieved and displayed by selection of a user.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for identifying multi-modal associations between biomedical markers which allows for the determination of network nodes and/or high ranking network members or combinations thereof, indicative of having a diagnostic, prognostic or predictive value for a medical condition, in particular ovarian cancer. The present invention further relates to a biomedical marker or group of biomedical markers associated with a high likelihood of responsiveness of a subject to a cancer therapy, preferably a platinum based cancer therapy, wherein said biomedical marker or group of biomedical markers comprises at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 8, 19, 20 or all markers selected from PKMYT1, SKIL, RAB8A, HIRIP3, CTNNB1, NGFR, ZCCHC11, LSP1, CD200, PAX8, CYBRD1, HOXC11, TCEAL1, FZD10, FZD1, BBS4, IRS2, TLX3, TSPAN2, TXN, and CFLAR. Furthermore, an assay for detecting, diagnosing, graduating, monitoring or prognosticating a medical condition, or for detecting, 1 diagnosing, monitoring or prognosticating the responsiveness of a subject to a therapy against said medical condition, in particular ovarian cancer, is provided, as well as a corresponding method for classifying a subject comprising and a medical decision support system.
摘要:
The present invention relates to effective diagnosis of patients and assisting clinicians in treatment planning. In particular, invention provides a medical analysis system that enables refinement of molecular classification.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of non-invasively monitoring the expression of a gene of interest in a cell when contacting said cell with a compound influencing the expression of said gene of interest. The present invention is also concerned with different isolated nucleic acid molecules comprising a coding sequence. Said coding sequence comprises a gene of interest-sequence encoding a gene of interest-polypeptide fused to a reporter sequence encoding a fluorescent reporter polypeptide and is operatively coupled to a promoter sequence. The present invention is also concerned with the use of a method and a nucleic acid molecule of the invention for delivering a compound influencing the expression of a gene of interest in a cell, monitoring the delivery of said compound as well as monitoring the influence on the expression of said gene of interest induced by said compound at the same time.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods, arrays and computer programs for assisting in classifying breast cancer diseases. In particular the invention relates to classifying breast cancer disorders by determining the methylation status of one or more sequences according to SEQ ID NO: 1-111. The classification may be further strengthened by also taking the expression levels of one or more proteins into account.

摘要:
Method and device for providing a summary of a plurality of images, e.g. a video sequence. The method includes dividing the video sequence into a plurality of segments. The segments are analyzed with respect to content and a set of content descriptors are associated to the segments. Preferably, additional textual information about the segments, screenplay etc., is used to determine the content descriptors. A graph representing relations between the segments is constructed indicating relations between segments. Weights are associated to the relations so as to represent a measure of relation, e.g. a logical correlation, between segments. The weights are based on the calculated content descriptors. A relevance measure for a segment is determined based on all weights associated with relations to said segment. Finally, a summary is generated by selecting the most relevant segments. The method can create an automatic summary of a film that preserves all the logical plot of the original but is shorter in duration (e.g. 70% of the original film) while the original playback rate is preserved.
摘要:
A method for providing complementary information 226 for a video program is provided that includes receiving complementary information 226 for a video program. A query is received from a consumer. The query is related to a specified portion of the complementary information 226. A query response is provided to the consumer based on the specified portion of the complementary information 226.
摘要:
A system facilitates and enhances review of one or more multimedia input streams that includes some combination of video, audio and text information, generating a multimedia summary, thereby enabling a user to better browse and/or decide on viewing the multimedia input streams in their entirety. The multimedia summary is constructed automatically, based in part on system specifications, user specifications and network and device constraints. In a particular application of the invention, the input multimedia streams represent news broadcasts (e.g., television news program, video vault footage). In such a particular application, the invention can enable the user to automatically receive a summary of the news stream in accordance with previously provided user preferences and in accordance with prevailing network and user device constraints.
