Title: Auto segmentation using 2-d images taken during 3-d imaging spin
Inventor: NEIL R CRAWFORD
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 2021-11-01
Abstract: To provide a system and method of more efficiently identifying and segmenting anatomical structures from 2-D cone beam CT images, rather than from reconstructed 3-D volume data.SOLUTION: An image processing system receives, from a cone beam CT device, at least one 2-D x-ray image, which is part of a set of x-ray images taken from a 360-degree scan of a patient with a cone beam CT imaging device. The x-ray image contains at least one anatomical structure such as vertebral bodies to be segmented. The received x-ray is then analyzed to identify and segment the anatomical structure contained in the x-ray image based on a stored model of anatomical structures. Once the 360-degree spin is completed, a 3-D image volume is created from the x-ray image set. The identification and segmentation information derived from the x-ray image is then added to the created 3-D image volume.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure27B

Title: game machine
Inventor: OKAMURA GEN
IPC: A63F7/02
Filed: 2021-11-05
Abstract: To improve game properties in a game machine capable of shifting to a b-time-shortening game state.SOLUTION: A game machine 10 executes a loss display when occurrence of a big win game based on a small win game is disadvantageous in an opening of the small win game, and executes a gain display when occurrence of a big win game based on a small win game becomes advantageous instead of being disadvantageous. After switching from the loss display to the gain display, the loss display is not executed until a big win game occurs. In an intermediate period when advantage/disadvantage for generating a big win game on the basis of a small win game cannot be determined easily, a border display for reporting that advantage/disadvantage cannot be easily determined in an opening of a small win game is executed. The border display is a mode for alternately executing, for example the loss display and the gain display, and a mode in which a movable accessory member 39 is moved so as to overlap with a display surface of a pattern display part 341. The border display may be executed in a special pattern game executed during the intermediate period.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 358

Filed: 2021-12-01
Abstract: To provide an image forming apparatus that, when only AC voltage is applied to an electrifying roller prior to application of electrification voltage, prevents a photoconductor drum from being electrified to have a polarity opposite to the electrification polarity of toner.SOLUTION: When AC voltage is applied prior to application of electrification voltage for electrifying a photoconductor drum 1Y to have a desired surface potential, a peak is held by a hold capacitor C421 so that an anode terminal of a second diode D421 being a connection part with the hold capacitor C421 has a "negative" potential. In this case, the amount of current flowing from an "electrification AC reference end" of a superposition transformer T310 to the ground through an AC current detection circuit 204 becomes larger in a forward direction than that in a reverse direction. As a result of this, the potential of the "electrification AC reference end" is offset to "negative," and a DC component of the AC voltage is offset to "negative." Thus, the photoconductor drum 1Y is electrified to have a "negative" surface potential (the same polarity as the electrification polarity of toner) through an electrifying roller 2Y.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
