MUMBAI, India, Sept. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202421022310 A) filed by Tata Consultancy Services Limited, Maharashtra, on March 22, 2024, for 'estimation of scaling in objects by processing ultrasound responses using machine learning (ml).'

Inventor(s) include Saini, Parvesh; Maiti, Soumyadipta; and Rai, Beena.

The application for the patent was published on Sept. 26, under issue no. 39/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Machine Learning based scaling estimation in the art mostly used a complex guided wave setup. Further, selection of features for ML is critical to the predict significant points on the US signal response providing appropriate but minimum features that capture maximum scaling characteristics, thus keeping the ML features minimal to provide time and resource efficient computation. A method and system for estimation of scaling in objects by processing ultrasound responses using ML is disclosed. The system uses low-voltage pulse packets to generate ultrasonic (US) waves, capable of penetrating metal structures, using an economically repurposed piezoelectric transducer. These US signal response from the object-scaling interface and scaling-fluid interface, is captured using the repurposed piezoelectric transducer and processed to generate the envelope of the US signal response, and unique 42 features are extracted. A pretrained ML model processes the features to estimate various levels of scaling present in the object."
