| Case ID | Technology | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 2019-048 | Narrow GREE-Emitting Phosphors | The invention can be used as narrow band green emitting phosphor. Thereported composition can be synthesized via a two-step solid state reaction under normalatmospheric pressure with the second step in a weak reducing condition. The presence of therare-earth ions in the compound allow the material… |
| 2019-045 | Method for Solving Geosteering Inverse Problems in Downhole Environments Using DeepNeural Network | We invent a method for solving geosteering inverse problems, i.e. inferring properties of formations and detecting boundaries near the wellbore based on logging-while-drilling (LWD) data. By using deep neural network, this method is computationally very light and suitable for real-time processing… |
| 2019-038 | Method for Camera Tamper Detection | An unauthorized alteration in the viewpoint of a surveillance cameras is called tampering. This involves comparing images from the surveillance camera against a reference model. The reference model represents the features (e.g. background, edges, and interest points) of the image under normal… |
| 2019-030 | Computational Method for Breast Shape Modeling and Prediction | Although computational models of breast shape have been developed, the ability to provide realistic simulations of the breast is still lacking. With improved techniques and a wide range of surgical options to consider, a flexible yet accurate breast model is necessary. Here, we present a novel… |
| 2019-032 | Assessment of Systemic Sclerosis by Optical Coherencetomography and Optical Coherenceelastography | Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disorder with high mortality rate that results in excessive accumulation of collagen in the skin and internal organs. To improve the survival rate, an accurate and early diagnosis is crucial to ensure effective treatment. Currently, the modified Rodnan skin… |
| 2019-039 | Method and Device for Light-Sheet Illumination and Imaging | One of the main obstacles in disease diagnosis and treatment in developing countries is theinsufficiency of modern diagnostic tools.1 Even though highly sensitive and specific moleculardiagnostic tests have become more available, the current technologies are still limited in clinicallaboratory… |
