The criteria includes when the correlation between the tool motion and the cardiac, respiration and patient motion changes abruptly. In a prolapse detection apparatus, guidewire tip P&O readings determine a tip motion vector. The control generates an alarm using the motion vector and predetermined criteria. The criteria include a substantial change in the tip orientation not accompanied by a corresponding position change and a change in the motion vector by about 180° accompanied by a corresponding position change no greater than a threshold.	06-30-2011
20110160571	TOOL SHAPE ESTIMATION - A medical tool includes a location sensor at a distal end.

Once the tool has reached the region of interest, the control unit records a second location reading according to the sensor output indicative of a current location. A relaxation shape of the tool forms a shape constraint on the tool shape reconstruction. The control unit determines a reconstruction representing the current shape of the tool based on the positional constraints and the shape constraint. The reconstruction is graphically superimposed on an image of the region of interest.	06-30-2011

20100260378	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING THE CONTOUR OF AN OBJECT ON A MOVING CONVEYOR BELT - A system for detecting the contour of an object situated on a surface includes an image acquisition assembly, wherein there is relative motion between the image acquisition assembly and the object. The image acquisition assembly includes a line detector, operable for scanning the surface line by line by virtue of the relative motion. Each line is scanned during a scan cycle, the line being transverse to the direction of the relative motion. A light source is operable for emitting light toward the line detector during active periods between idle periods, such that during each of the active periods the light is emitted for at least one cycle synchronized with the scan cycle, allowing the line detector to acquire a first group of at least one lit scan line. During each of the idle periods lasting for at least another cycle synchronized with the scan cycle, no light is emitted, allowing the line detector to acquire a second group of at least one unlit scan line. The object passes between the line detector and the light source by virtue of the relative motion. A processor is coupled with the image acquisition assembly and receives and analyzes scan lines acquired by the line detector. For each of the first group of at least one lit scan line and a successive one of the second group of at least one unlit scan line, the processor identifies a token pattern consisting of a lit segment of the first group adjoining an unlit segment of the second group. The processor searches along the first group and the successive second group for locations where the token pattern ends or reappears, thereby defining edges of the object, and combining the collection of the defined edges to produce a contour of the object.	10-14-2010

20100049739	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BOUNDED ANALYSIS OF MULTIMEDIA USING MULTIPLE CORRELATIONS - Multimedia content usage is on the rise and hence, it is becoming increasingly necessary to automatically analyze the multimedia content in order enhance the effective applicability and usage of the content. The richness of a multimedia content demands multi-fold analysis of the content and further, this richness also leads to openness and vastness. Hence, the outcome of the multiple analyses techniques needs to be carefully analyzed in order to avoid limited or inconsistent content description. A system and method for bounded analysis of multimedia using multiple correlations addresses the issues related to richness and vastness of a multimedia content to enable describing of the multimedia content in a maximally consistent manner. Such a content description is very useful in the semantic characterization of multimedia.	02-25-2010
20100057699	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ANNOTATION AGGREGATION - Annotations for a multimedia repository facilitate an efficient indexing, searching, and retrieval of the content from the multimedia repository. These annotations are an effective description of the content and it is very useful to have systems that automatically analyze the content to generate the annotations. A multimedia content, comprising video, audio, and textual data, is organized at shot level, scene level, segment level, multi-segment level, and full-length level. The multimedia content annotation is a providing of computer processable description of the multimedia content. Due to the multilevel organization of a multimedia content, it is required to provide annotations at various levels as well. A system and method for annotation aggregation uses the annotation at a lower level to arrive at an annotation at the next higher level. Such multilevel annotations are very useful in applications such as targeted content delivery.	03-04-2010
20100073496	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOTE USAGE MODELING - Remote control units are used to interact with a variety of devices. Modeling of the usage of a remote control unit while interacting with a device helps in (a) redesigning the remote for better usability; (b) dynamic adapting of the remote to provide improved interactions; and (c) characterizing the usage behaviors. In particular, it is very popular to use remote control units to interact with TVs and PVR devices. A system and method for the modeling of a remote usage involves the use of both pre-defined models and discovered models. Specifically, a pattern of usage of a remote control unit is abstracted to be one of either a pre-defined model or a discovered model. The model discovery involves the process of generalization based on a set of particular remote control unit usage patterns. The labels associated with the models help in characterizing the remote control unit usage patterns.	03-25-2010
20100122297	SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USER LIKES MODELING - Modeling user likes and dislikes is an important aspect of target marketing. Typically, a user performs several activities related to a particular domain, and the outcomes of these activities indicate the extent of liking/disliking that resulted on account of these activities. Further, many of these activities are performed on a routine basis. The problem of user likes modeling is to analyze these various activities performed by the user and the solution is to arrive at a likes/dislikes model of the user. Such a likes/dislikes model helps in, for example, ad targeting in the context of TV viewing and cross-selling in the case of mobile services.	05-13-2010
20110022470	System and Method for Real-Time Ad Selection and Scheduling - Ads play an important role in enhancing the market reach of the products. Televisions are one of the major targets for advertising to reach mass market. With the advent of the Internet, video on demand mode of delivering content, to a variety of devices such as personal computers and mobile phones, has become a possibility. New ad targeting opportunities arise when the multitude of technologies are combined. One of the aspects of ad targeting, to keep the viewers' attention focused on ads, is to “beat the expectations.” A system and method to help in keeping viewers' attention focused on ads involves randomly selecting an ad to be displayed using a randomly selected ad display model at a randomly selected time interval during the course of watching of content. Further, a viewer's attention on ads gets enhanced when the randomly selected ads are appropriate from the point of view of the content being watched.	01-27-2011

20100265404	SYSTEM FOR REDUCING NOISE IN VIDEO PROCESSING - A system includes a data storage configured to store a model human visual system, an input module configured to receive an original picture in a video sequence and to receive a reference picture, and a processor. The processor is configured to create a pixel map of the original picture using the model human visual system. A first layer is determined from the pixel map. A weighting map is determined from a motion compensated difference between the original picture and the reference picture. A processed picture is then determined from the original picture using the weighting map and the first layer.	10-21-2010
