    摘要: A system and method for processing values of a subset of numeric features to provide interpretability of the results of a machine learning model, by determining an extent of the contribution of the subset of features towards a predicted class by performing: (i) receiving the thermal image, (ii) obtaining a region of interest in the thermal image of the subject, (iii) extracting a plurality of numeric features associated with the region of interest of the thermal image, (iv) predicting a class, (v) estimate an extent of contribution of the subset of numeric features towards the decision of the first machine learning prediction model (M) and (vi) generate a report that includes a generated discrete values that determines the extent of contribution of the subset of numeric features towards the predicted class.

    摘要: A method for determining a view angle of a thermal image from a user and generating a suggestion to enable the user for adaptive positioning of a subject for capturing the thermal image is provided. The method includes (i) receiving a thermal image of a body of a subject, (ii) automatically determining a view angle of the thermal image from a user using a view angle estimator, (iii) determining an angular adjustment to be made to a view position of the thermal imaging camera or a position of the subject by comparing the determined view angle with a required view angle as per thermal imaging protocol when the thermal image does not meet the required view angle and (iv) generating instructions to the user for adjusting the view position of the thermal imaging camera for capturing a new thermal image at the required view angle as per thermal imaging protocol.

    摘要: What is disclosed is an apparatus for enabling privacy for patients undergoing breast cancer screening in a non-clinical setting. One embodiment of the present apparatus comprises an enclosure in which a person can remove one or more garments to expose their breasts to a thermal camera for breast cancer screening. The enclosure is such that at least the breast area of that person is shielded from view by third parties. The apparatus also comprises a thermal camera for capturing thermal images of the exposed breast area. The thermal camera is connected to a robotic arm that changes the camera angle relative to real-world coordinates so that thermal images can be taken of the breast area from any angle between a frontal view and a left/right lateral view. A processor which executes a software interface tool for semi-automated or automated breast cancer screening based on the thermal images of the breast.
