Abstract:
Objective To evaluate retrievable IVC filters in our institution and assess their retrieval following a well-structured follow up program. Design Retrospective cohort study. Materials The medical records of patients implanted with retrievable IVC filters were reviewed. Methods All retrievable filter insertions between July 2007 and August 2011 at our institution were reviewed. Data was analyzed for age, gender, indication, complications, retrieval rate, and brand of filter inserted. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software v19. Chi-square was used to compare discrete data and t-test for continuous data. P < 0.05 was significant. Results A total of 484 patients were reviewed of which 258 (53.1%) had a complete medical record. And 96 (37.2%) filters were placed as permanent at the time of insertion. An additional 40 (15.5%) filters were converted to permanent (total permanent filters 136; 52.7%). Death was reported in 26 (10%) patients and 96 (37.2%) out of the remaining 232 patients presented for potential retrieval. Also, 73 (28.2%) had an attempt to retrieve the filters, 69 (94.5%) were successful and 4 (5.4%) failed to retrieve. The remaining 23 (8.9%) patients declined retrieval. Filters studied include Celect (38%), Bard (31.4%), Option (26.2%), Tulip (4.1%), and Recovery (0.2%). Bard was more commonly used as a retrievable filter (80.9%). Retrieval on the first attempt was 90.4% ( n = 66) successful. Of the remaining seven filters, three were successfully retrieved on a second attempt, and four failed to retrieve due to filter tilt. The success rates of retrieval for Celect and Tulip were significantly lower than for Bard ( p = 0.04 and 0.023, respectively). Conclusion Our study showed that a variety of IVC filters can be retrieved successfully with minimal complication rates. In more than half of our patients, IVC filters were used as permanent. Failure of retrieval was most frequently due to filter tilting.

Abstract:
Abstract. Lidar retrievals of atmospheric temperature and water vapor mixing ratio profiles using the optimal estimation method (OEM) typically use a retrieval grid with a number of points larger than the number of pieces of independent information obtainable from the measurements. Consequently, retrieved geophysical quantities contain some information from their respective a priori values or profiles, which can affect the results in the higher altitudes of the temperature and water vapor profiles due to decreasing signal-to-noise ratios. The extent of this influence can be estimated using the retrieval's averaging kernels. The removal of formal a priori information from the retrieved profiles in the regions of prevailing a priori effects is desirable, particularly when these greatest heights are of interest for scientific studies. We demonstrate here that removal of a priori information from OEM retrievals is possible by repeating the retrieval on a coarser grid where the retrieval is stable even without the use of formal prior information. The averaging kernels of the fine-grid OEM retrieval are used to optimize the coarse retrieval grid. We demonstrate the adequacy of this method for the case of a large power-aperture Rayleigh scatter lidar nighttime temperature retrieval and for a Raman scatter lidar water vapor mixing ratio retrieval during both day and night.

Abstract:
Abstract. Retrieval of accurate profiles of temperature and water vapor is important for the study of atmospheric convection. However, it is challenging because of the uncertainties associated with direct measurement of atmospheric parameters during convection events using radiosonde and retrieval of remote-sensed observations from satellites. Recent developments in computational techniques motivated the use of adaptive techniques in the retrieval algorithms. In this work, we have used the Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to retrieve profiles of temperature and humidity over tropical station Gadanki (13.5° N, 79.2° E), India. The observations of brightness temperatures recorded by Radiometrics Multichannel Microwave Radiometer MP3000 for the period of June–September 2011 are used to model profiles of atmospheric parameters up to 10 km. The ultimate goal of this work is to use the ANFIS forecast model to retrieve atmospheric profiles accurately during the wet season of the Indian monsoon (JJAS) season and during heavy rainfall associated with tropical convections. The comparison analysis of the ANFIS model retrieval of temperature and relative humidity (RH) profiles with GPS-radiosonde observations and profiles retrieved using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) algorithm indicates that errors in the ANFIS model are less even in the wet season, and retrievals using ANFIS are more reliable, making this technique the standard. The Pearson product movement correlation coefficient (r) between retrieved and observed profiles is more than 99% for temperature profiles for both techniques and therefore both techniques are successful in the retrieval of temperature profiles. However, in the case of RH the retrieval using ANFIS is found to be better. The comparison of mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE) and symmetric mean absolute percentage error (SMAPE) of retrieved temperature and RH profiles using ANN and ANFIS also indicates that profiles retrieved using ANFIS are significantly better compared to the ANN technique. The error analysis of profiles concludes that retrieved profiles using ANFIS techniques have improved the retrievals substantially; however, retrieval of RH by both techniques (ANN and ANFIS) has limited success.

Abstract:
Abstract. We have developed a Bayesian aerosol retrieval (BAR) algorithm for the retrieval of aerosol optical depth (AOD) over land from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). In the BAR algorithm, we simultaneously retrieve all dark land pixels in a granule, utilize spatial correlation models for the unknown aerosol parameters, use a statistical prior model for the surface reflectance, and take into account the uncertainties due to fixed aerosol models. The retrieved parameters are total AOD at 0.55 µm, fine-mode fraction (FMF), and surface reflectances at four different wavelengths (0.47, 0.55, 0.64, and 2.1 µm). The accuracy of the new algorithm is evaluated by comparing the AOD retrievals to Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) AOD. The results show that the BAR significantly improves the accuracy of AOD retrievals over the operational Dark Target (DT) algorithm. A reduction of about 29 % in the AOD root mean square error and decrease of about 80 % in the median bias of AOD were found globally when the BAR was used instead of the DT algorithm. Furthermore, the fraction of AOD retrievals inside the ±(0.05+15%) expected error envelope increased from 55 to 76 %. In addition to retrieving the values of AOD, FMF, and surface reflectance, the BAR also gives pixel-level posterior uncertainty estimates for the retrieved parameters. The BAR algorithm always results in physical, non-negative AOD values, and the average computation time for a single granule was less than a minute on a modern personal computer.

Abstract:
Abstract. The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) column-averaged dry air mole fraction of CH4 (XCH4) measurements have been widely used to validate satellite observations and to estimate model simulations. The GGG2014 code is the standard TCCON retrieval software used in performing a profile scaling retrieval. In order to obtain several vertical pieces of information in addition to the total column, in this study, the SFIT4 retrieval code is applied to retrieve the CH4 mole fraction vertical profile from the Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) spectrum at six sites (Ny-Ålesund, Sodankylä, Bialystok, Bremen, Orléans and St Denis) during the time period of 2016–2017. The retrieval strategy of the CH4 profile retrieval from ground-based FTS near-infrared (NIR) spectra using the SFIT4 code (SFIT4NIR) is investigated. The degree of freedom for signal (DOFS) of the SFIT4NIR retrieval is about 2.4, with two distinct pieces of information in the troposphere and in the stratosphere. The averaging kernel and error budget of the SFIT4NIR retrieval are presented. The data accuracy and precision of the SFIT4NIR retrievals, including the total column and two partial columns (in the troposphere and stratosphere), are estimated by TCCON standard retrievals, ground-based in situ measurements, Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment – Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS) satellite observations, TCCON proxy data and AirCore and aircraft measurements. By comparison against TCCON standard retrievals, it is found that the retrieval uncertainty of SFIT4NIR XCH4 is similar to that of TCCON standard retrievals with systematic uncertainty within 0.35 % and random uncertainty of about 0.5 %. The tropospheric and stratospheric XCH4 from SFIT4NIR retrievals are assessed by comparison with AirCore and aircraft measurements, and there is a 1.0 ± 0.3 % overestimation in the SFIT4NIR tropospheric XCH4 and a 4.0 ± 2.0 % underestimation in the SFIT4NIR stratospheric XCH4, which are within the systematic uncertainties of SFIT4NIR-retrieved partial columns in the troposphere and stratosphere respectively.

Abstract:
There is evidence in the literature that two retrievals from long-term memory cannot occur in parallel. To date, however, that work has explored only the case of two retrievals from newly acquired episodic memory. These studies demonstrated a retrieval bottleneck even after dual-retrieval practice. That retrieval bottleneck may be a global property of long-term memory retrieval, or it may apply only to the case of two retrievals from episodic memory. In the current experiments, we explored whether that apparent dual-retrieval bottleneck applies to the case of one retrieval from episodic memory and one retrieval from highly overlearned semantic memory. Across three experiments, subjects learned to retrieve a left or right keypress response form a set of 14 unique word cues (e.g., black—right keypress). In addition, they learned a verbal response which involved retrieving the antonym of the presented cue (e.g., black—“white”). In the dual-retrieval condition, subjects had to retrieve both the keypress response and the antonym word. The results suggest that the retrieval bottleneck is superordinate to specific long-term memory systems and holds across different memory components. In addition, the results support the assumption of a cue-level response chunking account of learned retrieval parallelism.

Abstract:
Abstract This cross-cultural study addressed how individuals retrieve and transfer naturally learned information (i.e., folktales) from long-term memory by analogy with a previously unencountered story, concept, or problem. American and Iranian participants read target stories constructed to be analogous to folktales either familiar or unfamiliar to their culture, all having high structural familiarity and either high or low surface similarity to the source folktales. Participants reported whether targets (analogues) reminded them of any specific folktale they had learned in the past; positive responses plus additional justification (i.e., the folktale’s name or its gist) were interpreted as successful analogical retrievals. The current experiment demonstrated a high overall rate of analogical retrieval for familiar folktales and essentially no retrieval for unfamiliar folktales. There was also reliably more retrieval for analogue stories having higher versus lower surface similarity to target folktales. The high salience of surface similarity was also revealed when participants rated retrieved folktales for similarity to the target. Personal familiarity with folktales increased the retrieval rate, but presenting the folktale’s name as a cue produced mixed effects on retrieval. In summary, individuals readily retrieved culturally familiar folktales from long-term memory when they encountered structurally similar analogues, but retrieval was modulated by surface similarity.

Abstract:
Abstract. This paper describes a method for using interferometer measurements of downwelling thermal radiation to retrieve the properties of single-layer clouds. Cloud phase is determined from ratios of thermal emission in three "micro-windows" where absorption by water vapor is particularly small. Cloud microphysical and optical properties are retrieved from thermal emission in two micro-windows, constrained by the transmission through clouds of stratospheric ozone emission. Assuming a cloud does not approximate a blackbody, the estimated 95% confidence retrieval errors in effective radius, visible optical depth, number concentration, and water path are, respectively, 10%, 20%, 38% (55% for ice crystals), and 16%. Applied to data from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement program (ARM) North Slope of Alaska – Adjacent Arctic Ocean (NSA-AAO) site near Barrow, Alaska, retrievals show general agreement with ground-based microwave radiometer measurements of liquid water path. Compared to other retrieval methods, advantages of this technique include its ability to characterize thin clouds year round, that water vapor is not a primary source of retrieval error, and that the retrievals of microphysical properties are only weakly sensitive to retrieved cloud phase. The primary limitation is the inapplicability to thicker clouds that radiate as blackbodies.

Abstract. In the present study we describe the retrievals of snow grain size and spectral albedo (plane and spherical albedo) for Western Himalayan snow cover using Hyperion sensor data. The asymptotic radiative transfer (ART) theory was explored for the snow retrievals. To make the methodology operational only five spectral bands (440, 500, 1050, 1240 and 1650 nm) of Hyperion were used for snow parameters retrieval. The bi-spectral method (440 nm in the visible and 1050/1240 nm in the NIR region) was used to retrieve snow grain size. Spectral albedos were retrieved using satellite reflectances and estimated grain size. A good agreement was observed between retrieved snow parameters and ground observed snow-meteorological conditions. The satellite retrieved grain sizes were compared with field spectroradiometer retrieved grain sizes and close results were found for Lower Himalayan snow. The wavelength 1240 nm was found to be more suitable compared to 1050 nm for grain size retrieval along the steep slopes. The methodology was able to retrieve the spatial variations in snow parameters in different parts of Western Himalaya which are due to snow climatic and terrain conditions of Himalaya. This methodology is of importance for operational snow cover and glacier monitoring in Himalayan region using space-borne and air-borne sensors.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to describe passage retrieval (PR), with basis in results from various empirical experiments, and to critically investigate different approaches in PR. The main questions to be answered in the thesis are: (1) What characterizes PR? (2) What approaches have been proposed? (3) How well do the approaches work in experimental information retrieval (IR)? PR is a research topic in information retrieval, which instead of retrieving the fulltext of documents, that can lead to information overload for the user, tries to retrieve the most relevant passages in the documents. This technique was investigated studying a number of central articles in the research field. PR can be divided into three different types of approaches based on the segmentation of the documents. First, you can divide the text considering the semantics and where the topics change. Second, you can divide the text based on the explicit structure of the documents, with help from e.g. a markup language like SGML. And third, you can do a form of PR, where you divide the text in parts containing a fixed number of words. This method is called unmotivated segmentation. The study showed that an unmotivated segmentation resulted in the best retrieval effectiveness even though the results are difficult to compare because of different kinds of evaluation methods and different types of test collections. A combination between full text retrieval and PR also showed improved results.

Recovering a full description of a wave from limited intensity measurements remains a central problem in optics. Optical waves oscillate too fast for detectors to measure anything but time{averaged intensities. This is unfortunate since the phase can reveal important information about the object. When the light is partially coherent, a complete description of the phase requires knowledge about the statistical correlations for each pair of points in space. Recovery of the correlation function is a much more challenging problem since the number of pairs grows much more rapidly than the number of points. In this thesis, quantitative phase imaging techniques that works for partially coherent illuminations are investigated. In order to recover the phase information with few measurements, the sparsity in each underly problem and ecient inversion methods are explored under the framework of compressed sensing. In each phase retrieval technique under study, diffraction during spatial propagation is exploited as an effective and convenient mechanism to uniformly distribute the information about the unknown signal into the measurement space. Holography is useful to record the scattered field from a sparse distribution of particles; the ability of localizing each particles using compressive reconstruction method is studied. When a thin sample is illuminated with partially coherent waves, the transport of intensity phase retrieval method is shown to be eective to recover the optical path length of the sample and remove the eect of the illumination. This technique is particularly suitable for X-ray phase imaging since it does not require a coherent source or any optical components. Compressive tomographic reconstruction, which makes full use of the priors that the sample consists of piecewise constant refractive indices, are demonstrated to make up missing data. The third technique, known as the phase space tomography (PST), addresses the correlation function recovery problem. Implementing the PST involves measuring many intensity images under spatial propagation. Experimental demonstration of a compressive reconstruction method, which finds the sparse solution by decomposing the correlation function into a few mutually uncorrelated coherent modes, is presented to produce accurate reconstruction even when the measurement suers from the 'missing cone' problem in the Fourier domain.

Abstract:
Two of the biggest uncertainties in understanding and predicting climate change are the effects of aerosols and clouds. NASA's satellite mission, CALIPSO (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations, will provide vertical, curtain-like images of the atmosphere on a global scale and assist scientists in better determining how aerosols and clouds affect the Earth's radiation budget. The data from a previous space shuttle mission, LITE (Lidar In-space Technology Experiment, launched in Sept., 1994), have been employed to develop algorithms (e.g., spaceborne lidar system calibration and aerosol retrievals) in support of CALIPSO. In this work, a new calibration approach for 1064 nm lidar channel has been developed via comparisons of the 532 nm and 1064 nm backscatter signals from cirrus clouds. Some modeling analyses and simulations have also been implemented for CALIPSO's narrow bandwidth receiver filter to quantitatively distinguish Cabannes scattering from the full bandwidth Rayleigh scattering and correct the calibration of 532 nm channel. LITE data were also employed in some analyses with the aim of recovering the estimates of the backscatter ratio, R, of clean air regions. The uncertainties in aerosol retrieval due to different error sources, especially the bias and random errors of the extinction-to-backscatter ratio, Sa, have been investigated. A revised Sa table look-up approach is incorporated with two notable revisions for improved S a selection, which, as a consequence enable more bounded aerosol retrievals. Approximate but quantitatively useful multiple-scattering corrections are reported using a modeled multiple scattering factor, eta, which approximates the reduced attenuation caused by multiple scattering. Assessment of multiple scattering effects for a reasonable range of eta values is included for a combination of retrieval approaches.

Abstract:
Vertical profiles of volume mixing ratios (VMRs) of ozone were retrieved from high resolution, infrared solar absorption spectra taken at Rikubetsu (43.5 °N, 143.8 °E), Japan by a ground-based Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The VMR profile retrieval is based on an iterative inversion algorithm, which utilizes a multilayer line-by-line calculations. In total, 96 ozone vertical profiles were retrieved from 48 infrared spectra by using two O3 absorption lines near 10 micron spectral region. These profiles were compared with 21 ozonesonde measurements from nearby ozone sounding stations. The two micro-window regions used for O3 profile retrievals are 1146 cm-1 and 1163 cm-1 spectral regions. Averaged discrepancies were less than ±15 % above 8 km for 1146 cm-1 retrievals, while those were less than ±11 % between 16 and 36 km for 1163 cm-1 retrievals. The standard deviation (SD) of averaged discrepancies were less than ±17 % between 16 and 36 km for 1146 cm-1 retrievals, while those were less than ±12 % between 16 and 36 km for 1163 cm-1 retrievals. In general, O3 VMR profile retrieval gives agreements within ±17 % in SD with ozonesonde measurements between 16 and 36 km altitudes.

Abstract:
The process planning task for a given design problem in additive manufacturing can be greatly enhanced by referencing previously developed process plans. In this research, a case-based retrieval method, called the DFM (Design For Manufacturing) framework, that retrieves previously formulated process plans is proposed to support process planning. To support the DFM Framework, we have developed an information model (ontology) of manufacturing process knowledge in the domain of additive manufacturing processes, including design requirements, process plans, and rules that map requirements to plans. Description Logic (DL) is identified as an appropriate mathematical formalism to encode the ontology and realize the computational mapping between the design and manufacturing domains. Storage and retrieval algorithms are presented that, first, structure the repository of previous DFM problems and, second, enable DFM problems to be retrieved.

Abstract:
Introduction. With the increase in the availability of digital text collections for humanities researchers, tools to enable enhanced retrieval are required. If words with very specific properties could be retrieved from a text collection more accurate linguistic and other analyses can be made. There are a range of properties and metadata that could be specified for retrieval, from morphological data up to bibliographic data. Furthermore, the bibliographic data should not only be on item level but extended to the text-level. For example, in an anthology each section could be encoded with the author of that section. Such extended metadata will enable fine-grained retrieval. Method. In this study, current tools were evaluated to determine to what extent they allow users to retrieve words with specific properties from a text collection. Analysis. The analysis is limited to the following criteria: interface design, metadata, search options, filtering and search results. Results. Currently, it is not possible for a user to retrieve words with specific properties from a text collection. Conclusion. An extended set of metadata should be used to encode text to enable retrieval of words on a fine-grained level.

Abstract:
Rodgers1 presents a general approach for error analysis of retrievals based on a linearization of the retrieval problem. This approach allows calculation of retrieval error from uncertainties in the input radiances and in each of the forward radiance model parameters. These terms are weighted according to the sensitivity of the retrieval to each of them. We use this framework to describe the results of an error analysis performed on HALOE2 data. This paper will show the effect of using oversampled profile data and an interleave retrieval technique by application of formal error analysis.

Abstract:
In the rapid product design and development, design rationale (DR) information is critical for designers to understand the design technology and for better knowledge reuse. The visualization of DR capture, search and retrieval systems is important in assisting designers to gain insights and benefits from the increasing DR repository, e.g. major design issues of an artifact and design alternatives to the issues. In literatures, we have observed that the current DR systems provide limited interactive guidance in helping designers to DR navigate and search. In our previous work, we have proposed an ISAL (Issue, Solution and Artifact Layer) model for DR discovery in which the DR information is mined from a large amount of archival documents using text mining techniques. In this paper, we focus on interactive user interface (UI) design for our DR retrieval system. With functions like view, search and analysis, designers are visually guided during DR searching. Using patents as our research data, the view functions enable engineering designers to intuitively navigate DR repository. Search functions support designers to retrieve relevant DR from multiple aspects and visualize the structure of relevant DRs from a holistic view. By applying analysis functions on the retrieved DR, visualization is able to suggest some useful DR insights, e.g. key components of certain issues, possible solutions of relevant issues, major issues of an artifact and technology development trend analysis, etc. Together with the function examples, we illustrate the merits of our interface design for DR search and retrieval.

Abstract:
We study visual question answering in a setting where the answer has to be mined from a pool of relevant and irrelevant images given as a context. For such a setting, a model must first retrieve relevant images from the pool and answer the question from these retrieved images. We refer to this problem as retrieval-based visual question answering (or RETVQA in short). The RETVQA is distinctively different and more challenging than the traditionally-studied Visual Question Answering (VQA), where a given question has to be answered with a single relevant image in context. Towards solving the RETVQA task, we propose a unified Multi Image BART (MI-BART) that takes a question and retrieved images using our relevance encoder for free-form fluent answer generation. Further, we introduce the largest dataset in this space, namely RETVQA, which has the following salient features: multi-image and retrieval requirement for VQA, metadata-independent questions over a pool of heterogeneous images, expecting a mix of classification-oriented and open-ended generative answers. Our proposed framework achieves an accuracy of 76.5% and a fluency of 79.3% on the proposed dataset, namely RETVQA and also outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 4.9% and 11.8% on the image segment of the publicly available WebQA dataset on the accuracy and fluency metrics, respectively.

"High resolution Interferometer Sounder - An Accurate Method for Profile Retrieval Without the Use of Contemporary "First Guess" Data." In Optical Remote Sensing of the Atmosphere. Washington, D.C.: Optica Publishing Group, 1995. http://dx.doi.org/10.1364/orsa.1995.md1.

Full text
Abstract:
The High resolution Interferometer Sounder (HIS), is a Michelson interferometer which observes the spectrum of infrared radiance (3.5 - 18 μm) with a spectral resolution ( λ/Δλ) better than 2000/1. During 1994, the HIS flew aboard the NASA ER-2 during a series of flights between Christchurch New Zealand and the Antarctic ice shelf as part of the Airborne Southern Hemisphere Ozone Experiment (ASHOE). The intent of the HIS was to retrieve atmospheric profiles of temperature, water vapor, and ozone beneath the Aircraft (20 Km) flight level. The profile retrievals are needed to validate global Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models used to prescribe the thermodynamic and dynamic variables used to estimate the chemical interactions and transports of the molecules responsible for Ozone depletion (i.e., the "Ozone Hole"). In order to accomplish this objective, a procedure for profile retrieval had to be developed which was both accurate and independent of the contemporary meteorological observations which influence NWP models; needless to say a model forecast could not be used as an initial guess for the retrieval process. Because of the extensive cloudiness over the Southern Oceans, the method had to be able to provide accurate retrievals above clouds, regardless of their altitude or their opacity. This paper describes the method developed for this application and provides results from the spectral radiance data obtained during the ASHOE to demonstrate their accuracy.

Full text
Abstract:
A critical measurement to be performed by future high resolution spectral radiometers such as the Tropospheric Emission Sounder (TES; Beer and Glavitch, 1989), is the global profiling of ozone. In order to assess the capability of retrieving tropospheric ozone profiles using a space based Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) observing in the nadir, retrieval studies have been performed using simulated spectral radiances. The approach we have used in studying tropospheric ozone profile retrievals is the maximum likelihood method (Rodgers, 1987). This method is attractive for two principal reasons: (1) null space is systematically treated and (2) a consistent error analysis of the retrieved parameters is provided. The effect on the retrievals of supplementing the spectral thermal emission radiances in the 10 micron ozone band with scattered solar spectral radiances from the three micron ozone region has been studied. These studies have been performed with an unapodized resolution of 0.071 cm-1 and with measurement noise consistent with the specifications for TES. The entire spectral ozone region at 10 microns has been utilized in these studies taking advantage of the TES capability to provide a simultaneous measurement over a broad spectral range.

Abstract:
Abstract Numerous folding patterns, structures, and behaviors exist in nature that may provide design solutions to engineering problems. While applying biological solutions to engineering design is evidently valuable, the retrieval of useful design inspiration remains a primary challenge preventing the transfer of knowledge from biology to the engineering domain. In prior research, information retrieval techniques are employed to retrieve useful biological design solutions and a text-based search algorithm is developed to return passages where folding in nature is observed. The search algorithm, called FoldSearch, integrates tailored biological keywords and filtering methods to retrieve passages from an extensive biological corpus. The objective of this paper is two-fold — 1) to demonstrate the functionality of FoldSearch, and 2) to create abstract models of the retrieved biological systems from FoldSearch which can be used for the development of novel origami crease patterns and foldable structures. In this paper, the utility of FoldSearch is demonstrated through two case studies where the retrieved biological examples undergo a design abstraction process that leads to the development of bioinspired origami crease patterns and novel foldable structures. The abstraction process is presented as a systematic design methodology for bioinspired origami for the growing research field of origami engineering.
