SOURCE: Applied Visual Sciences HERNDON, VA–(Marketwire – October 25, 2010) –  Applied Visual Sciences ( OTCBB : APVS ) announces the issuance of United States patent 7,817,833, titled “System and Method for Identifying a Feature of Interest in Hyperspectral Data,” by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The patent extends APVS’s existing patent protection into the image analysis domain where multiple images or pictures are created and utilized for automated computer analysis and assessment. Image acquisition technologies using multi-frame/multi-spectral image generation are rapidly expanding in areas involving security, medical, and satellite data. Claims made under this patent provide APVS with protective coverage in each of the above mentioned imaging applications.  A key competitive advantage of APVS’s image analysis process is Image Transformation Divergence, with its ability to accurately distinguish between targeted image objects, such as threats or disease states, and other objects that are non-threatening or benign. Typically, many different types of objects in an image have “identically appearing” properties. This is the single-most-important factor responsible for failures in automatic image analysis and detection algorithms. APVS’s Image Transformation Divergence, together with other advanced image analysis processes defined in the patent, dramatically and substantially reduces these “false positive” rates. The patented process is capable of detecting objects of interest with a high degree of confidence; does not rely only on prior knowledge of an object’s shape, volume, texture or density to be effective; and is most powerful where the presence of disease or threat objects must be distinguished from healthy tissue or non-threat objects that are similar in color, brightness, and texture.  “This patent is yet another step in establishing the credibility of our intellectual property portfolio and protecting our proprietary technology platform for future applications development,” states Bill Donovan, APVS’s President and Chief Operating Officer

SOURCE: New Flight Charters Minimize Your Risk When Using Private Jet Charter Companies JACKSON HOLE, WY–(Marketwire – October 21, 2010) –  Air charter industry leader New Flight Charters presents “Five Questions For Your Air Charter Service,” to help private fliers manage their risk and ensure a quality and reputable organization is handling their private charter flight.  The air charter industry is very diverse. Charter operator and broker organizations of various sizes, quality and competencies are vying for your flight and dollars. New broker names appear on the scene continuously, offering to arrange charters on your behalf as your agent. It is important to understand there are no real barriers to entry and literally anyone can advertise and call themselves a charter broker. The DOT and FAA government departments do their best in reviewing and enforcing practices, however there is no government quality rating or broker seal of approval, and private charter fliers assume their own risk in choosing and using a private jet and charter service.  Air charter service providers fall into one of two categories, broker or operator: Brokers do not own, operate, manage or have control over aircraft. They serve to arrange flights for passengers (“clients”) or charter operators. Brokers represent either the client, or the aircraft operator, in arranging a charter flight. Brokers typically will have an industry-wide reach, and connect with a variety of charter aircraft options, or jet charter listings for any one flight
