These slides are meant to introduce the concepts between new software methods that aim at building 'Smart Knowledge Portals' - as a new kind of 'expert system' or 'artificial intelligence'. ENJOY!

1. 3D Metrics
The Power of ‘Software Vision’
through ‘Software Lenses’
Revealed

2. The Value
Unfulfilled
Need
Everybody needs this technology in
science and business because it deals
with TIME and NUMBERS better.
Technology With 3 software methods it provides
forecasts, depth, detail & perspectives.
Market The market is big for each of the 3
software methods.
Route to
the market
Software as a Service is the product.
Web presence is already extensive.

3. Sickle cells (anaemia)
Seeing more
about cells
and their
environment
applies to
sickle cells,
stem cells and
red and white
blood cells as
examples.
The offer is to
let you define
what you want
to differentiate
in terms of cell
characteristics.

4. Just one Example
• Image analysis in cytology is underperforming
because humans a poor instruments: lazy, slow
and make mistakes. 3D Metrics solves that.
• 3D Metrics ‘software vision’ is better:
– offers new capabilities and ultimately a fully
automated pre-screening process.
– Competitors don’t have ‘pixel accuracy’.
• It is a multibillion market (cytology / pathology)
and growing.

5. Stem cells
Just as sickle cells,
so can stem cells be
identified:
1. We see more
visual depth and
metric details
2. We see the
difference made by
colour
3. We can provide
you with a new tool
of observation!

6. Cells for Diabetes
• Image analysis in cytology.
– The technology improves productivity through
faster analytical process, automated or semi-
automated tagging of images, intelligent
image search and comparison
– Could be used in medical diagnostics,
clinical trials and biomedical research
– Potential customers: hospitals, clinical trial
consultancies and academics

7. USPs
• 3D Metrics’ unique ‘software vision’ approach
• Complementary to human pattern recognition
capabilities
• Automatically generates metadata
• Enables intelligent image search, comparison and
sharing
• Competitors: CellProfiler, FuzzyFluid, Labman
3.0. 3D Metrics’ unique multidimensional data
analysis algorithms are much more powerful
and add a new level of precision
• The ultimate objective: the fully automated
pre-screening system as ‘on-demand service’!

8. The Market
• Huge Market: US anatomic pathology and
cytology market was estimated by
Washington G-2 Reports to be slightly over
$12 billion in 2006. Growth of 60%
between 2003 and 2006.
• The worldwide market is several times
bigger
• Around 14,000 board-certified pathologists
actively practising in the United States:
potential customers of 3D Metrics’
Software-as-a-Service

9. Route to Market
• Develop software based on 3D Metrics
algorithms in collaboration with ‘domain
experts’, ‘image technologists’ and
‘subject specialists’
• Software-as-a-Service:
– highly scalable, fast and cost-effective
• Deploy it on a commercial infrastructure
• Sell as a ‘web service’ to cytology /
pathology practitioners and researchers on
a pay-as-you-use or subscription basis

10. Definitions
• Cytology is the branch of life science,
which deals with the study of cells in terms
of structure, function and chemistry
• Software Vision – 3D Metrics method that
generates the digital representation of the
image, derives “image metrics” such as
shapes, objects, patterns, colours and
contrasts and analyses this numerical data
to make decisions about grouping images
into collections and sorting, ranking or
selecting them.

11. Input
Images
3dM Digitised Images:
multidimensional graphical
representation of
the original images.
Easy to quantify!
3dM Cytology Vocabulary by
Subject Experts: translates digitised
images into image descriptors and
proprietary quantifiers. For setting
Quality Standards!
3dM Metadata for Computers:
• Image intelligent grouping, sorting and ranking
• Measuring image shapes, patterns and objects
• Selecting, searching and comparing images
• Image identification
The unique
Software Vision
approach
3D Metrics
for Cytology

12. Input
Image
3dM Re-Visualised Image:
multidimensional graphic of
the original image.
Easy to quantify!
3dM Vocabularies:
describe qualities of multi-
dimensional data with
proprietary quantifiers
3dM Metadata:
• Proprietary algorithms
• Protected by ‘black boxing’
• Generic for 3 Software Methods:
•Forecasting Time Series
•Layering Dimensions
•Re-Visualising Images
