摘要： An intelligent spatial reasoning method receives a plurality of object sets. A spatial mapping feature learning method uses the plurality of object sets to create at least one salient spatial mapping feature output. It performs spatial reasoning rule learning using the at least one spatial mapping feature to create at least one spatial reasoning rule output. The spatial mapping feature learning method performs a spatial mapping feature set generation step followed by a feature learning step. The spatial mapping feature set is generated by repeated application of spatial correlation between two object sets. The feature learning method consists of a feature selection step and a feature transformation step and the spatial reasoning rule learning method uses the supervised learning method.The spatial reasoning approach of this invention automatically characterizes spatial relations of multiple sets of objects by comprehensive collections of spatial mapping features. Some of the features have clearly understandable physical, structural, or geometrical meanings. Others are statistical characterizations, which may not have clear physical, structural or geometrical meanings when considered individually. A combination of these features, however, could characterize subtle physical, structural or geometrical conditions under practical situations. One key advantage of this invention is the ability to characterize subtle differences numerically using a comprehensive feature set.

摘要： A structure-guided transformation transforms a region of an image into a region in the structure-transformed image according to the desired structure. The invention achieves efficient and accurate structure-guided processing such as filtering, detection and comparison in the transformed domain and thereby facilitates use of simple operations to enhance or detect straight lines or edges. Structure information is used to enhance and detect image features of interest even when the shape of the image structure is not regular. Both global and local structures of objects can be inspected. Global structure inspection detects gross errors in image structure; therefore side effects caused by mismatched structure-guided processing are avoided. Subtle defects along the edge of a structure can be detected by local structure inspection. Structure information guidance provides an edge detection inspection system that tolerates significant noise and contrast variations.

摘要： Mark detection and position determination are improved by use of directional elongated filters, symmetry, gray scale image processing, structural constraints, and learning. Directional elongated filters are used to pre-process images of registration marks to create masks and enhanced images. Working sequentially, portions of the mark are detected and classified. The input gray scale image of the mark is processed using its structural constraints in conjunction with a mask for the detected mark. A cost function estimation determines mark position and orientation with sub-pixel accuracy. Learning is used to improve specific application performance.

摘要： A high speed image processing apparatus is created through the use of cascaded elongated filters. The processing speed of the filters is kernel size insensitive, enabling use of general purpose computing facilities to process high resolution, monochrome, and multi-spectrum images. Elongated filters described include both linear and non-linear filters. Very large kernel and multi-dimensional image processing is accomplished with reduced complexity and portable programming instructions.

摘要： A method and apparatus for optimizing biological and cytological specimen screening and diagnosis. A slide review process is recommended for cytological specimen screening to identify abnormal sub-populations for further review and also diagnosis by a human expert. An automated screener processes a cytological specimen. Using a slide score generated by the automated screener, a slide review process using a slide score classification is determined. The recommendation of slide review processes improves overall performance of the screening process as measured by sensitivity to abnormal specimens, and at the same time reduces the work load of a human reviewer. The system also effectively and smoothly integrates the process of initial screening of the specimen with the process of further review of the specimen and final diagnosis of the specimen.

摘要： A free-lying cell classifier. An automated microscope system comprising a computer and high speed processing field of view processors identifies free-lying cells. An image of a biological specimen is obtained and the image is segmented to create a set of binary masks. The binary masks are used by a feature calculator to compute the features that characterize objects of interest including free-lying cells, artifacts and other biological objects. The objects are classified to identify their type, their normality or abnormality or their identification as an artifact. The results are summarized and reported. A stain evaluation of the slide is performed as well as a typicality evaluation. The robustness of the measurement is also quantified as a classification confidence value. The free-lying cell evaluation is used by an automated cytology system to classify a biological specimen slide.
