Inventor: KAGIWADA YOSHIMITSU
IPC: G06Q20/14
Filed: 2012-07-31
Abstract: [Problem] To facilitate the management of product transaction vouchers between multiple dealers in a hierarchical relationship. [Solution] A transaction management system that includes: a transaction settings information storage unit, which associates the ID of an upstream dealer, from which an intermediate dealer has ordered a product, with that product ID and the ID of the intermediate dealer, and which stores this associated information; a price storage unit, which associates a first product selling price according to the upstream dealer with the product ID and the upstream dealer ID, and which stores this associated information, and which associates a second product selling price according to the intermediate dealer with the product ID and the intermediate dealer ID, and which stores this associated information; and a voucher issuance processing unit. When there is a product order from a downstream dealer, the voucher issuance processing unit generates an order voucher from the downstream dealer to the intermediate dealer on the basis of the order quantity and the second selling price, and generates an order voucher from the intermediate dealer to the upstream dealer on the basis of the order quantity and the first selling price. Orders, delivery, and logistics data are integrally managed, and vouchers for delivery are created efficiently using data at the time an order voucher is generated. The same is true for sales ledgers and purchase ledgers.

Title: Spectral unmixing
Inventor: BAMFORD PASCAL
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2014-03-13
Abstract: Processing of images acquired via fluorescence microscopy by identifying broadband and other undesired signals from the component signals of a scanned image, and processing selected regions of the image that are known to contain signals of interest, thereby extracting or identifying desired signals while subtracting undesired signals. One or more broadband signals are recognized by their unique signature and ubiquitous dispersion through the image. Regions of the scanned image may be tagged as consisting of predominantly broadband signals and are ignored during a spectral unmixing process. The remaining regions of the image, or selected regions of the image known to contain desired signals, may be unmixed, and the plurality of reference spectra subtracted from the components to extract or identify the target signals. The set of target signals may be refined by eliminating known or obvious sources of noise by, for instance, being compared to known or ideal sets of signals from similar materials.

Title: Method and system for use in performing security screening
Inventor: PERRON LUC
IPC: B65G43/08
Filed: 2011-04-21
Abstract: A method and apparatus for screening luggage are provided. X-ray images derived by scanning the luggage with X-rays are received and processed with an automated threat detection (ATD) engine. A determination is then made whether to subject respective ones of the X-ray images to further visual inspection by a human operator at least in part based on results obtained by the ATD engine. In certain cases, visual inspection by a human operator is by-passed and the ATD results are relied upon in order to mark luggage for further inspection or to mark luggage as clear. In another aspect, X-ray images derived by scanning the luggage using two or more X-ray scanning devices are pooled at a centralized location. ATD operations are applied to the X-ray images, which are then provided "on-demand" to a human operator for visual inspection. Results of the visual inspection are entered by the human operator and then conveyed to on-site screening technicians associated with respective X-ray scanning devices.
