A method for reconstructing a high quality image from undersampled image data is provided. The image reconstruction method is applicable to a number of different imaging modalities. Specifically, the present invention provides an image reconstruction method that incorporates an appropriate prior image into the image reconstruction process. Thus, one aspect of the present invention is to provide an image reconstruction method that requires less number of data samples to reconstruct an accurate reconstruction of a desired image than previous methods, such as, compressed sensing. Another aspect of the invention is to provide an image reconstruction method that produces a time series of desired images indicative of a higher temporal resolution than is ordinarily achievable with the imaging system. For example, cardiac phase images can be produced with high temporal resolution (e.g., 20 milliseconds) using a CT imaging system with a slow gantry rotation speed.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for performing a visual rewind operation in an image editing application may include capturing, compressing, and storing image data and interaction logs and correlations between them. The stored information may be used in a visual rewind operation, during which a sequence of frames (e.g., an animation) depicting changes in an image during image editing operations is displayed in reverse order. In response to navigating to a point in the animation, data representing the image state at that point may be reconstructed from the stored data and stored as a modified image or a variation thereof. The methods may be employed in an image editing application to provide a partial undo operation, image editing variation previewing, and / or visually-driven editing script creation. The methods may be implemented as stand-alone applications or as program instructions implementing components of a graphics application, executable by a CPU and / or GPU.

The present invention discloses a 3D (three-dimensional) convolutional neural network based human body behavior recognition method, which is mainly used for solving the problem of recognition of a specific human body behavior in the fields of computer vision and pattern recognition. The implementation steps of the method are as follows: (1) carrying out video input; (2) carrying out preprocessing to obtain a training sample set and a test sample set; (3) constructing a 3D convolutional neural network; (4) extracting a feature vector; (5) performing classification training; and (6) outputting a test result. According to the 3D convolutional neural network based human body behavior recognition method disclosed by the present invention, human body detection and movement estimation are implemented by using an optical flow method, and a moving object can be detected without knowing any information of a scenario. The method has more significant performance when an input of a network is a multi-dimensional image, and enables an image to be directly used as the input of the network, so that a complex feature extraction and data reconstruction process in a conventional recognition algorithm is avoided, and recognition of a human body behavior is more accurate.

The invention relates to a method, apparatus and system for data reconstruction in a distributed storage system. A main storage node in the distributed storage system performs EC coding on the data to be written to generate an EC stripe; each EC block on the EC stripe is stored on each storage node; when part of the storage nodes cause failure of writing of EC blocks because of faults, the main storage node stores the EC blocks distributed to the storage nodes which fails to write in the local, and generates metadata information required by data reconstruction; and when the faults of the storage nodes recover, the main storage node retransmit the stored EC blocks distributed to the storage nodes and the metadata information corresponding to the EC blocks to the storage nodes so as to enable the storage nodes after recovering the faults to complete data reconstruction. The scheme for data reconstruction in the distributed storage system has the advantages that when part of the storage nodes malfunction, EC reversal coding is not required to recover the data on the fault nodes, but the buffer of main storage node is distributed to the EC blocks with fault nodes; after the fault nodes recover, the buffered EC blocks are retransmitted to the fault nodes to perform data reconstruction, thus avoiding computing resource consumption because of performing EC reversal coding when the storage nodes recover fault to perform data reconstruction, and avoiding consumption of network resource because large amount of data is transmitted during the EC reversal coding process at the same time.

The present invention provides systems and methods for logging information regarding write operations directed to the disk being upgraded while the single disk is inoperable during the upgrade process. When the upgrade of the disk is complete, the logged information is used to update the information stored on the upgraded disk. The logged information is sufficient to update the disk contents without requiring a time consuming total reconstruction of the entire content of the disk. In one exemplary preferred embodiment, the logged information identifies a logical block numbers of the disk that are impacted by write operations processed while the disk firmware was being upgraded. Only the data corresponding to the logged logical block numbers needs be reconstructed from the redundant data on other disks of the array. This method of data reconstruction is a less time consuming process than a total reconstruction of all data on the upgraded disk.

In a storage system in which plural end servers 104, intermediate servers 103 and clients 101 are connected to each other via a network 106, when a migration-source end server 104 transfers file-level data to a migration-destination end server 104 via the intermediate server 103, the migration-source end server 104 also transfers data in a differential volume simultaneously, and the migration-destination end sever 104 reconstructs data in a snapshot volume based on the transferred data and transfers response information regarding the reconstructed data to the client 101.

On disk failure, the storage system migrates only those disk blocks that included allocated data, and treats unallocated disk blocks as being logically zero when possible. When there is no spare disk, the source data block is logically set to zero and parity is recalculated for the RAID stripe associated with the source data block. When there is a spare, unallocated blocks on the spare are logically or physically set to zero upon migration. Write operations for the failed disk are redirected to other non-failing disks, and a record of which in-use disk blocks have been thus “migrated” to those other non-failing disks in maintained. Unused disk blocks are proactively set to zero. A target mirror copy is created using information regarding allocated disk blocks, by copying those blocks including allocated data or parity, and by clearing at the mirror those blocks not including any allocated data or parity.

A computer system for the indexing of data in which a heuristic determination function is applied to predict an efficient index updating approach. The system is able to update an index relating to a first data set by incrementally updating the index or by a rebuild of the index at the completion of the addition of a second set of data to the first set of data. The system applies a heuristic determination function to the characteristics of the first set of data, its index, and the second set of data, to predict whether an incremental update or a rebuild update of the index will result in a more efficient rebuild of the data. The system applies this approach to a restore and rollforward recovery or a data load operation to improve the efficiency of these operations.

The present invention relates to an image reconstruction device (12) for an X-ray apparatus and a method for local 3D reconstruction of an object area of an examination object (7) from 2D image data of several 2D X-ray images of the examination object (7) registered in chronological order with different known projection geometries using the X-ray apparatus. With the method a location in the object area under consideration is selected from one of the 2D X-ray images. The positions of the selected location are determined in at least some of the 2D X-ray images and a spatial motion of the selected location between the registrations of the 2D X-ray images is calculated from the positions obtained, taking the known projection geometries into consideration. The calculated motion is then annulled by modifying the 2D image data in the 2D X-ray images and a 3D image dataset of at least the object area is reconstructed from the modified 2D image data. The method and the image reconstruction device enable a 3D image of a moving locally bounded object area to be reconstructed in a simple way without motion artifacts.

Fault tolerance in a redundant array of disk drives is degraded when error conditions exist in the array. Several methods for rebuilding data of the array to remove the degradation are described. Data rebuilding for entire disk drives and partial data rebuilds of disk drives are described. All rebuild methods tend to reduce the negative affect of using array resources for the data rebuild. In one method rebuilding occurs during idle time of the array. In a second method rebuilding is interleaved between current data area accessing operations of the array at a rate which is inversely proportional to activity level of the array. In a third method, the data are rebuilt when a data area being accessed is a data area needing rebuilding.

A method for reconstructing an image of a subject from undersampled image data that is acquired with an imaging system, such as a magnetic resonance imaging system or computed tomography system, is provided. From the acquired undersampled image data, an image of the subject is reconstructed and used to guide further image reconstruction. For example, a low resolution image is reconstructed from a portion of the undersampled image data, such as from a portion corresponding to the center of k-space when MRI is used. From this image, a number of similarity clusters are produced and processed. The processing may be by hard thresholding, Wiener filtering, principal component pursuit, or other similar techniques. These processed similarity clusters are then used to reconstruct a final, target image of the subject using, for example, a weighted average combination of the similarity clusters.

An embodiment of the invention is method, which can be implemented in software, firmware, hardware, etc., for virtual fly over inspection of complex anatomical tubular structures. In a preferred embodiment, the method is implemented in software, and the software reconstructs the tubular anatomical structure from a binary imaging data that is originally acquired from computer aided tomography scan or comparable biological imaging system. The software of the invention splits the entire tubular anatomy into exactly two halves. The software assigns a virtual camera to each half to perform fly-over navigation. Through controlling the elevation of the virtual camera, there is no restriction on its field of view (FOV) angle, which can be greater than 90 degrees, for example. The camera viewing volume is perpendicular to each half of the tubular anatomical structure, so potential structures of interest, e.g., polyps hidden behind haustral folds in a colon are easily found. The orientation of the splitting surface is controllable, the navigation can be repeated at another or a plurality of another split orientations. This avoids the possibility that a structure of interest, e.g., a polyp that is divided between the two halves of the anatomical structure in a first fly over is missed during a virtual inspection. Preferred embodiment software conducts virtual colonoscopy fly over. Experimental virtual fly over colonoscopy software of the invention that performed virtual fly over on 15 clinical datasets demonstrated average surface visibility coverage is 99.59+ / −0.2%.
