The organ segmentation in computed tomography (CT) examination is a tedious and error prone task. The local similarity of the pixels from different organs, and the differences between the pixels of the same organ observed ...

The World Wide Web has expanded to include on-line access to an almost unlimited number of documents. However, this enormous source of information brings with it the problem of searching the documents efficiently and easily. ...

Recent studies reveal that mitochondria take substantial responsibility in cellular functions that are closely related to aging diseases caused by degeneration of neurons. These studies emphasize that the membrane and ...

Mitochondria are sub-cellular components which are mainly responsible for synthesis of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) and involved in the regulation of several cellular activities such as apoptosis. The relation between ...

Mitochondrial function plays an important role in the regulation of cellular life and death, including disease states. Disturbance in mitochondrial function and distribution can be accompanied by significant morphological ...

Digital video stabilization is a category of techniques used to reduce the impact of unintentional camera motion such as jitter, jiggle, and other unsteady motions. These unintentional shakings degrade visual quality of ...

A 3D head modeling method from a sequence of 2D images is described. The views from which the input images are acquired are not calibrated. Therefore, an auto-calibration method for a sequence of images with small ...

In this paper, a specialized version of PCA augmented with Gabor Wavelet Transform is proposed for face identification. Firstly, to cope with the variations due to illumination and facial expression changes 2D Gabor Wavelet ...

Dual energy X-ray inspection systems are widely used in security and controlling systems. The performance of these systems however, degrades with the poor performance of human operators. Computer vision based systems are ...

In this paper, we consider the importance of osteoporosis disease in terms of medical research and pharmaceutical industry and we introduce a knowledge discovery approach regarding the treatment of osteoporosis from a ...
