    Abstract: A system and method are provided for tracking magnetically-labeled substances, such as transplanted cells, in subjects using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method includes obtaining a quantity of a substance that comprises an MRI contrast compound or is otherwise magnetically-labeled for purposes of an MRI scan, administering the substance into a region of interest of a subject, performing an imaging scan of a portion of the subject comprising the region of interest, obtaining an imaging data set from the scan, reducing the dataset into pixel groupings based on intensity profiles, where the pixel groupings have a pixel size larger than the expected pixel size of a unit of the MRI contrast compound or magnetically-labeled substance, extracting candidate pixel matrices from the imaging data, training a machine learning (ML) module by using the candidate pixel matrices, quantifying the presence, number and/or location of units of the substance within the subject by using the ML module, and displaying a visual representation of an identification of the substances within the subject as a result of using the ML module.

    Abstract: The system to proctor an examination includes a first camera worn by the examination taking subject and directed to capture images in subject's field of vision. A second camera is positioned to record an image of the subject's face during the examination. A microphone captures sounds within the room, which are analyzed to detect speech utterances. The computer system is programmed to store captured images from said first camera. The computer is also programmed to issue prompting events instructing the subject to look in a direction specified by the computer at event intervals not disclosed to subject in advance and to index for analysis the captured images in association with indicia corresponding to the prompting events.

    Abstract translation: 考试的系统包括由考试所拍摄的第一台相机,并针对拍摄主体视野中的图像进行拍摄。 第二台摄像机被定位成在检查期间记录被摄体脸部的图像。 麦克风捕获房间内的声音,进行分析以检测语音话语。 计算机系统被编程为存储来自所述第一相机的拍摄图像。 计算机还被编程为发出提示事件,指示对象以事先未被披露的事件间隔在计算机指定的方向上查看,并且与用于与提示事件相对应的标记相关联地分析所捕获的图像进行索引。
