    摘要: The present invention relates to the design and implementation of a three stage computer-aided screening system that analyzes fundus images with varying illumination and fields of view, and generates a severity grade for diabetic retinopathy (DR) using machine learning. In the first stage, bright and red regions are extracted from the fundus image. An optic disc has similar structural appearance as bright lesions, and the blood vessel regions have similar pixel intensity properties as the red lesions. Hence, the region corresponding to the optic disc is removed from the bright regions and the regions corresponding to the blood vessels are removed from the red regions. This leads to an image containing bright candidate regions and another image containing red candidate regions. In the second stage, the bright and red candidate regions are subjected to two-step hierarchical classification. In the first step, bright and red lesion regions are separated from non-lesion regions. In the second step, the classified bright lesion regions are further classified as hard exudates or cotton-wool spots, while the classified red lesion regions are further classified as hemorrhages and micro-aneurysms. In the third stage, the numbers of bright and red lesions per image are combined to generate a DR severity grade. Such a system will help in reducing the number of patients requiring manual assessment, and will be critical in prioritizing eye-care delivery measures for patients with highest DR severity.

    摘要: A K-bit information signal represented by a polynomial U(x) having a degree K−1 is received. The information signal is transformed to form a transformed information signal using a first transform represented by a polynomial G1(x) having a degree P. The transformed information signal is represented by a polynomial T(x) having a degree K+P−1. T(x) equals U(x)G1(x). An initial cyclic code represented by a polynomial R1(x) is generated for the transformed information signal using a second transform represented by a polynomial G2(x), where G2(x) has high-order leading-zero terms. R1(x) equals the remainder obtained by dividing T(x) by G2(x). The initial cyclic code is transformed to form a final cyclic code represented by a polynomial R2(x) using the first transform. R2(x) equals R1(x)/G1(x).

    摘要: Turbo decoders may have large decoding latency and low throughput due to iterative decoding. One way to increase the throughput and reduce the latency of turbo decoders is to use high speed decoding schemes. In particular, area-efficient parallel decoding schemes may be used to overcome the decoding latency and throughput associated with turbo decoders. In addition, hybrid parallel decoding schemes may be used in high-level parallelism implementations. Moreover, the area-efficient parallel decoding schemes introduce little or no performance degradation.

The joint design process relies on a high girth (2,k)-regular LDPC code construction. The decoder realizes partly parallel decoding.

    摘要: Digital communications devices having high-speed add-compare-select circuits, and methods for designing the same. The add-compare-select circuits include logic segments separated by delay devices. The separation of the logic segments allows for pipelining of the add-compare-select processes and advantageous circuit retiming. The pipelining and advantageous circuit retiming permit the digital communications devices to be clocked at higher rates than similar digital communications devices having conventional add-compare-select circuits.

    摘要: A low-error fixed-width multiplier receives a W-bit input and produces a W-bit product. In an embodiment, a multiplier (Y) is encoded using modified Booth coding. The encoded multiplier (Y) and a multiplicand (X) are processed together to generate partial products. The partial products are accumulated to generate a product (P). To compensate for the quantization error, Booth encoder outputs are used for the generation of error compensation bias. The truncated bits are divided into two groups, a major least significant bit group and a minor least significant bit group, depending upon their effects on the quantization error. Different error compensation methods are applied to each group.

    摘要: A method of processing multiple VLC data elements concurrently. A system realizing this method comprises a plurality of encoders under control and a plurality, typically like in number, of decoders under separate, but accorded control. Furthermore, a means of communication from the former to the latter is incorporated in which ordinal and temporal correspondence is established between particular encoders and particular decoders. Encoder control provides an ordered symbol assignment strategy across all encoders. Decoder control detects the encoder assignment strategy and applies it to the task of restoring the original output order among all decoder outputs.
