SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract of patent application(s): An image processing system receives a digital image and analyzes the digital image to determine a resolution limit, referred to herein as "feature resolution," for measuring a metric for features of the image within an acceptable margin of error. Specifically, the system segments a digital image and calculates the error associated with the segmented data when features within a certain range a measured metric ( e.g., size range) are removed from the segmented data. This analysis can be repeatedly performed with different cutoff values for the metric until at least a threshold amount of error is reached, thereby indicating a resolution limit at the boundary of an acceptable amount of error.
Intellectual property: U.S. Application No. 17/671,527, filed on February 14, 2022, and entitled " Systems and Methods for Determining Feature Resolution of Image Data ."
The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed license.
Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR part 404.
Tommy W. Lee,
Acting Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
