摘要:
A method and system for defining a model by analyzing images of a physical space. In some embodiments the images of a physical space contain distinctive visual features with associated semantic information, and the model is defined using image feature detection techniques to identify distinctive visual features and a rich marker-based markup language to give meaning to the distinctive visual features. In some embodiments the distinctive visual features are predefined markers, and the markup language specifies model aspects and rules for combining semantic information from a plurality of markers to define the model.

Some aspects of the invention can involve compositions, systems, and related techniques that control or reduce objectionable odor characteristics of a body or a stream of wastewater. The compositions, systems, and related techniques can comprise one or more compounds that adjust metabolic activity of at least a portion of microorganisms in wastewater to inhibit or disfavor the formation of at least one objectionable odorous compound or species and one or more compounds that modify, shift, or promote one or more states or characteristics of one or more objectionable odorous species in wastewater. The metabolic modifying compound can be an anthraquinone and the state modifying compound can be an alkaline or pH-elevating compound.

Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for automatically identifying features of a cytology specimen. An example method can involve dividing a whole slide image of the cytology specimen into a plurality of image portions; applying a first neural network to each image portion to identify one or more relevant image portions; and applying a second neural network to a first relevant image portion and a second relevant image portion to generate a respective first and second cell data. Each relevant image portion can be an image portion containing a region of interest for the cytology specimen. The method can further involve comparing the first and second cell data to determine whether a similarity threshold is satisfied; and in response to determining the similarity threshold is not satisfied, continuing to apply the second neural network to a subsequent relevant image portion until the similarity threshold is satisfied.
摘要:
A method of selectively leaching a metal such as nickel from an ore or ore processing intermediate comprising the metal and cobalt. The ore or ore processing intermediate is contacted with an acidic leach solution comprising an amount of an oxidising agent sufficient to oxidise a major portion of the cobalt to thereby cause it to be stabilised in the solid phase while a major portion of the metal is dissolved for subsequent recovery.

Systems and methods for repeat photography and difference extraction that help users take pictures from the same position and camera angle as earlier photos. The system automatically extracts differences between the photos. Camera poses are estimated and then indicators are rendered to show the desired camera angle, which guide the user to the same camera angle for repeat photography. Using 3D rendering techniques, photos are virtually projected onto a 3D model to adjust them and improve the match between the photos, and the difference between the two photos are detected and highlighted. Highlighting the detected differences helps users to notice the differences.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing semiconductor devices, a method for manufacturing an integrated circuit, and a method for improving a drive current for semiconductor devices on a wafer-by-wafer basis. The method for manufacturing semiconductor devices, among other elements, includes patterning gate structures on a substrate (220), each of the gate structures having a profile associated therewith, and obtaining information representative of the profiles of the gate structures (240). In accordance with the present invention the information may then be fed forward to alter a manufacturing parameter associated with a drive current of the semiconductor devices (250).

Context-based contact information retrieval systems and methods that automatically extract contact information from a user's context, allow a user to capture, reuse and share personal and organizational contacts in the form of a business card or an audio/video recording, as desired. In various embodiments, contacts are retrieved based on the user's context and are presented in a manner that does not disrupt the user's current task. In various embodiments, the user accesses the details of the contacts with a single interaction. In various embodiments, the systems and methods monitor the user's current context and check for matches. The systems and methods then assign a score to each match and unobtrusively present at least some of the matches to the user based on the assigned score.
