Title: Image tone adjustment using local tone curve computation
Inventor: LIM SUK HWAN
IPC: G06T5/40
Filed: 2014-08-20
Abstract: Image tone adjustment using local tone curve computation may be utilized to adjust luminance ranges for images. Image tone adjustment using local tone curve computation may reduce the overall contrast of an image, while maintaining local contrast in smaller areas, such as in images capturing brightly lit scenes where the difference in intensity between brightest and darkest areas is large. A desired brightness representation of the image may be generated including target luminance values for corresponding blocks of the image. For each block, one or more tone adjustment values may be computed, that when jointly applied to the respective histograms for the block and neighboring blocks results in the luminance values that match corresponding target values. The tone adjustment values may be determined by solving an under-constrained optimization problem such that optimization constraints are minimized. The image may then be adjusted according to the computed tone adjustment values.

IPC: G06V10/145
Filed: 2019-04-30
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to performing facial recognition using a single-pixel sensor that measures the time signature of a light pulse reflected from a subjects face. Due to depth differences between the sensor position and different parts of the subject's face reflections of a short duration illumination pulse from the different parts of the subject's face will arrive back at the sensor at different times, thus providing a time-based one-dimensional signature unique to the individual subject. By analyzing the reflection signature using neural networks or principal component analysis (PCA), recognition of the subject can be obtained. In addition, the same system may also be used to recognize or discriminate between any other objects of known shape in addition to faces, for example manufactured products on a production line, or the like.

Abstract: Adoptive immunotherapy using T cells genetically redirected via expression of chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) is a promising approach for cancer treatment. However, this immunotherapy is dependent in part on the optimal molecular design of the CAR, which involves an extracellular ligand-binding domain connected to an intracellular signaling domain by spacer and/or transmembrane sequences. CAR designs frequently incorporate extracellular linker regions based on the immunoglobulin constant regions of either IgG1 or IgG4. In this study, the ability of the IgG4-Fc linker to result in off-target interactions between the CAR and Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) was examined. As proof of principle, a CD19-specific scFv-IgG4-CD28-zeta CAR was studied, and it was determined that, in contrast to CAR-negative T cells that only expressed an EGFRt tracking marker, CAR+ T cells did not engraft in NSG mice and, indeed, were bound to soluble FcγRs. As such, mutations to avoid FcγR binding would improve CAR+ T cell persistence and anti-tumor efficacy were designed. Consequently, a CD19-specific CAR that has been mutated at two sites within the CH2 region (L235E; N297Q) of the IgG4 Fc spacer (CD19R(EQ)), as well as a CD19-specific CAR that has a CH2 deletion in its IgG4 Fc spacer (CD19Rch2Δ) were generated. These mutations/the deletion do not alter the functional ability of the CAR, when expressed by T cells, to mediate antigen-specific lysis of tumor cells. However, compared to T cells that express a non-mutated CAR, T cells expressing the CD19R(EQ) and CD19Rch2Δ exhibit impaired binding to recombinant soluble FcγRs. These CD19R(EQ) and CD19Rch2Δ T cells also exhibit improved engraftment in NSG mice, to levels similar to that seen with CAR-negative/EGFRt+ T cells. Importantly, the CD19R(EQ) and CD19Rch2Δ T cells also exhibited significantly improved CD19-specific anti-lymphoma efficacy in NSG mice. Together these studies provide evidence that optimal CAR function necessitates the elimination of cellular FcγR interactions in order to improve T cell persistence and anti-tumor responses.
