    • A system and method for performing pattern matching to locate zero or more instances of a template image in a target image. The method first comprises sampling the template image using a Low Discrepancy sequence, also referred to as a quasi-random sequence, to determine a plurality of sample pixels in the template image which accurately characterize the template image. The Low Discrepancy sequence is designed to produce sample points which maximally avoid each other. After the template image is sampled or characterized, the method then performs pattern matching using the sample pixels and the target image to determine zero or more locations of the template image in the target image. The method may also perform a local stability analysis around at least a subset of the sample pixels to determine a lesser third number of sample pixels which have a desired degree of stability, and then perform pattern matching using the third plurality of sample pixels. In one embodiment, the local stability analysis determines a plurality of sets of sample pixels with differing stability neighborhood sizes, and the pattern matching performs a plurality of iterations of pattern matching using different sets of sample pixels, preferably performed in a coarse to fine manner, e.g., using sets of sample pixels with successively smaller stability neighborhood sizes and/or step sizes. The present invention also includes performing rotation invariant pattern matching by sampling the template image along one or more rotationally invariant paths, preferably circular perimeters, to produce one or more sets of sample pixels. These sample pixels from the circular paths are then used in the pattern matching. The rotationally invariant pattern matching may also use local stability analysis and coarse to fine searching techniques.
    • 一种用于执行模式匹配以在目标图像中定位模板图像的零个或多个实例的系统和方法。 该方法首先包括使用低差异序列(也称为准随机序列)对模板图像进行采样,以确定模板图像中准确表征模板图像的多个样本像素。 低差异序列被设计为产生最大程度地避免彼此的采样点。 在模板图像被采样或表征之后,该方法然后使用样本像素和目标图像执行模式匹配,以确定目标图像中模板图像的零个或多个位置。 该方法还可以围绕样本像素的至少一个子集执行局部稳定性分析,以确定具有期望程度的稳定性的较小的第三数量的采样像素,然后使用第三多个采样像素执行模式匹配。 在一个实施例中,本地稳定性分析确定具有不同稳定性邻域大小的多组样本像素,并且模式匹配使用不同的采样像素集合执行多次迭代的模式匹配,优选地以粗略到精细的方式执行, 例如,使用具有连续更小的稳定性邻域大小和/或步长的样本像素集合。 本发明还包括通过沿着一个或多个旋转不变路径(优选圆周周长)采样模板图像来执行旋转不变模式匹配,以产生一组或多组采样像素。 来自圆形路径的这些采样像素然后用于模式匹配。 旋转不变模式匹配还可以使用局部稳定性分析和粗略到精细搜索技术。

    • A system and method for enabling applications written for SICL driver level software to operate with a VISA system. The present invention maps driver level event function calls from the SICL driver level library to VISA resource operations. This enables a VISA system to operate in conjunction with applications written for the SICL I/O library. The SICL Driver level library provides a completely different methodology for enabling and handling events than does a VISA system. According to the present invention, the method verifies and translate session identifier parameters from SICL functions to corresponding session identifiers in a VISA system. The method also verifies and translates interrupt condition parameters from SICL to corresponding event types in VISA for numerous event functions. Further, the method examines parameters in various SICL event functions and invokes the appropriate VISA operations to perform the indicated functions. In many instances, the method of the present invention is required to invoke multiple VISA operations to perform the desired functions indicated by a single SICL function. The method of the present invention performs many other operations necessary to map SICL event commands to the appropriate VISA operations.

    • A system and method for improved image characterization, object placement, and mesh design utilizing Low Discrepancy sequences. The Low Discrepancy sequence is designed to produce sample points which maximally avoid one another, i.e., the distance between any two sample points is maximized. The invention may be applied specifically to methods of image characterization, pattern matching, acquiring image statistics, object location, image reconstruction, motion estimation, object placement, sensor placement, and mesh design, among others. Image characterization is performed by receiving an image and then sampling the image using a Low Discrepancy sequence, also referred to as a quasi-random sequence, to determine a plurality of sample pixels in the image which characterize the image. Sensor placement is performed by generating a Low Discrepancy sequence for the desired placement application, and then selecting locations for the optimal placement of sensors using the generated Low Discrepancy sequence.
