    摘要: The present invention provides a method for estimating fluid saturation of a hydrocarbon-bearing rock from a rock image. The image is segmented to represent either a pore space or solid material in the rock. An image pore volume is estimated from the segmented image, and a corrected pore volume is determined to account for the sub-resolution pore volume missing in the image of the rock. An image-derived wetting fluid saturation of the rock is estimated using a direct flow simulation on the rock image and corrected for the corrected pore volume. A backpropagation-enabled trained model can be used to segment the image. A backpropagation-enabled method can be used to estimate the fluid saturation using an image selected from a series of 2D projection images, 3D reconstructed images and combinations thereof.

    摘要: Methods, apparatuses, systems, computing devices, and/or the like are provided. An example method may include receiving, from a perception subsystem associated with an object depalletization system, first imaging data associated with a plurality of objects disposed on a pallet; calculate, based at least in part on the first imaging data, one or more comparative dimension measures associated with the plurality of objects; determine whether the one or more comparative dimension measures satisfy a comparative dimension threshold range; and in response to determining that the one or more comparative dimension measures satisfy the comparative dimension threshold range, cause an execution subsystem associated with the object depalletization system to operate in a constant pallet mode.

    摘要: Various techniques are disclosed to provide for improved human body temperature detection using thermal images of an inner canthus. In one example, a method includes capturing a thermal image of a human being using a thermal imager. The method also includes determining an uncompensated temperature measurement associated with an inner canthus of a face of the human being using corresponding pixels of the thermal image. The method also includes determining a correction term as a function of a distance between the thermal imager and the human being. The method also includes applying the correction term to the uncompensated temperature measurement to provide a corrected temperature measurement associated with the inner canthus to compensate for attenuation associated with the distance. Additional methods and systems are also provided.

    摘要: A semiconductor measurement apparatus includes an illumination unit including a light source, and a polarizer disposed on a propagation path of light emitted from the light source; an optical unit configured to direct the light passing through the polarizer to be incident onto a sample, and to transmit the light, reflected from the sample, to an image sensor; and a controller configured to process an original image, output by the image sensor, to determine a critical dimension of a structure included in a region of the sample on which the light is incident. The controller acquires a two-dimensional image. The controller orthogonally decomposes the two-dimensional image corresponding to a selected wavelength into a plurality of bases, generates one-dimensional data including a plurality of weights corresponding to the plurality of bases, and uses the one-dimensional data to determine a selected critical dimension among critical dimensions of the structure.

    摘要: A method serves for determining an object weight of an object that is put on a weighing zone, which has a plurality of weighing plates arranged in a grid pattern, of a household refrigerator. The respective weights are measured by the weighing plates and an image is taken of the weighing zone. From the image, respective percentages of support surfaces of the object stored on the weighing zone in relation to the individual weighing plates are determined. From the weights measured at the weighing plates and the proportions of the support surfaces the object weight of the respective object is determined, and advantageously the determined object weight of the object is stored in a database. A refrigerating device has a household refrigerator with a refrigerating compartment having a weighing zone with a plurality of weighing plates arranged in a grid pattern. The refrigerating device is intended for performing the method.
