摘要:
A recommendation system is disclosed that generates recommendations for one or more items based on user preferences and one or more environmental factors. The user's preferences are learned under various environmental conditions using an environmental data collection system. The observed environmental conditions may include, for example, location, characteristics of the location, weather or characteristics of the user's motion, such as a rate of movement. For each positive and negative behavioral example, a number of attributes of the selected item are classified in the user profile together with the prevailing environmental conditions. When recommending an item, the disclosed recommender retrieves the user preferences and evaluates the current environmental conditions. A recommendation score can be generated for each available item based on the user's demonstrated preferences under similar environmental conditions, such as in the same or a similar geographic area or under similar weather conditions.

This invention relates to a method and device for case-based decision support. It proposes that a case-based decision support system is trained on inputs from several radiologists in order to have a “baseline” system, and then the system provides an option to a radiologist to refine the baseline system based on his/her inputs which either refine weights of features for similarity distance computation directly or provide new similarity ground truth clusters. By enabling modifying the similarity distance computation based on user inputs, this invention adapts similarity ground truth to different users with different experience and/or different opinions.

The present invention is directed to a method and system for retrieving information about television programs. This includes a website being connected to that includes information about a television program being watched. The information from the website is downloaded and then processed. Further, the information is then either displayed along with the television program being watched or stored for later playback.

A system and method augments a recorded lecture (110) based on the importance of the material and/or based on a student's needs. The importance of each segment of the lecture material (110) is based at least in part on questions from prior exams (120), and the student's needs are based at least in part on the student's performance (130) on prior exams. The method (410-440) of presenting the augmented material to the student may also be customized based on the student's learning style.
摘要:
A system and method for cross-modality case-based computer-aided diagnosis comprises storing a plurality of cases, each case including at least one image of one of a plurality of modalities and non-image information, mapping a feature relationship between a feature from images of a first modality to a feature from images of a second modality, and storing the relationship.
摘要:
Photo or video content of a person is acquired (401). A dimension of at least one iris of a person such as radius of the iris is measured (405, 411). A dimension of the face of the person, such as width of the face, is measured. The person is then classified (413) as an adult or child on the basis of a ratio of the dimension of the face and the dimension of the iris.
摘要:
A system and method is disclosed for indexing and summarizing music videos. A music video summary controller in a video playback device receives a multimedia data stream that contains a plurality of music videos. The music video summary controller (1) segments and identifies the music videos, and (2) creates a music video summary file for each music video. The music video summary file contains information such as title of the song and the name of the artist. The music video summary file also contains an identifying audio segment and video segment of the song. A user can access a list of the music video summary files and select which music video to play on the video playback device by selecting its corresponding music video summary file.
摘要:
For use in a video recorder, there is disclosed a system and method for determining whether an incoming video program has been previously recorded by the video recorder. The system comprises a transcript processor that is capable of obtaining a transcript of the incoming video program from a number of different sources of text. The transcript processor is capable of assembling the transcript from closed caption text of the video program. The transcript processor compares the transcript of the incoming video program with transcripts of video programs that have been previously recorded by the video recorder in order to determine whether the incoming video program has been previously recorded by the video recorder. The incoming video program is not recorded a second time if it has been previously recorded.
摘要:
A pre-examination patient information gathering system comprises an electronic user interface (30, 130) including a display (32) and at least one user input device (34, 36), and an electronic processor (50) configured to present an initial set of questions (54) to a patient via the electronic user interface, receive responses to the initial set of questions from the patient via the electronic user interface, construct or select follow-up questions (68) based on the received responses, present the constructed or selected follow up questions to the patient via the electronic user interface, and receive responses to the constructed or selected follow up questions from the patient via the electronic user interface. A physiological sensor (70, 72, 74, 76, 78, 80) may be configured to autonomously sense a patient physiological parameter as the patient interacts with the electronic user interface.
