Patent ID: 8271074

Claim:
A method of dynamically calibrating an image triage system, comprising the steps of: displaying a plurality of calibration image chips to a user during a calibration phase; collecting calibration phase data from the user during the calibration phase; calibrating the image triage system using the calibration phase data; dividing, in a processor, an image that may include one or more target entities into a plurality of individual non-calibration image chips; and during a subsequent performance phase: successively displaying on a display device each non-calibration image chip to the user for a presentation time period; selectively displaying, on the display device for the presentation time period, a calibration image chip between the successive display of two non-calibration image chips, the calibration image chip including a synthetic target entity; collecting calibration data from the user, via a data collector, at least while each calibration image chip is being displayed on the display device; and dynamically calibrating the image triage system using the calibration data.
