International Classification:

G01R 33/56
A61B 5/055
G01R 33/565

Abstract:

A method of performing multidimensional magnetic resonance imaging on a subject comprises collecting imaging data for a region of interest of the subject, the imaging data related to one or more spatially-varying parameters of the subject within the region of interest; collecting auxiliary data for the region of interest in the subject, the auxiliary data related to one or more time-varying parameters of the subject within the region of interest; linking the imaging data and the auxiliary data; and constructing an image tensor with one or more temporal dimensions based on at least a portion of the linked imaging data and at least a portion of the linked auxiliary data.

- Shinagawa-ku, JP
Christopher NGUYEN - Huntington Beach CA, US

International Classification:

H04N 1/34
G06F 3/12

Abstract:

A system and method for multiple account document processing cost accounting includes a multifunction peripheral including an intelligent controller having a processor and memory. A document processing engine operates in conjunction with instructions issued from the intelligent controller. The intelligent controller receives into memory document processing job data associated with a user. A user interface receives user input identifying the user. The user selects one or more charge based document processing operations to be performed. An account balance associated with the user is checked against one or more requested operations. User device operation permissions are assigned for each operation for which the user has sufficient credit in their account. Each document processing operation for which a permission has been given is completed, and the information is used to recalculate the user's account balance.

International Classification:

H04N 1/00
H04L 12/24
G06F 8/60

Abstract:

A system and method for deploying software such as a distributed customized user interface package creates a single package for deploying the interface to multifunction peripherals having different characteristics. A customized user interface is associated with each of a plurality of base binary files which correspond to different multifunction peripheral characteristics, such as firmware version or touchscreen size. A user interface configuration module is created for each binary file. The user interface configuration modules are described with associated metadata. All user interface configuration modules are packaged and deployed to an application deployment tool. The application deployment tool identifies networked multifunction peripherals and their individual characteristics to deploy a compatible user interface configuration module for installation.

H04L 12/58

Abstract:

A system and method for generating a unified address book includes a processor, a network interface and a memory storing an address book. The address book is comprised of an electronic address records in a preset or preexisting data record format. Each electronic address record of the address is scanned to generate address records to form a unified address book where records are stored in a unified address format. Generated address records are communicated to an associated data device via the network interface. Additional address records are received from the network interface and the unified address book is supplemented with additional received address records.

International Classification:

H04N 1/00
H04N 1/04

Abstract:

A system and method for scanning two or more documents into a single scan file includes a multifunction peripheral having an intelligent controller including a processor and associated memory. A scanner of the multifunction peripheral includes first and second document feed modes. A user interface includes a display, such as a touchscreen display. A first sensor detects a presence of a first tangible document in the first feed mode. A second sensor detects a second document in the second feed mode. The controller enables the first feed mode to complete a first scan operation and generates a digital image file comprising images of the first document. The controller generates a prompt on the display for a selection of a continued scan operation. If selected, the second feed mode completes a second scan operation on the second document and generates the digital image file to include images of the second document.

G06K 9/36

Abstract:

A new low rank tensor (LRT) imaging strategy/methodology, specifically for quantitative cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) multitasking, includes performing a low-rank tensor image model exploiting image correlation along multiple physiological and physical time dimensions, a non-ECG data acquisition strategy featuring minimal gaps in acquisition and frequent collection of auxiliary subspace training data, and a factored tensor reconstruction approach which enforces the LRT model.
