Among emerging pollutants found in surface and ground waters, pharmaceuticals are currently receiving a particular interest. There are several physico/chemical parameters that could describe the fate of pharmaceuticals in the environment, so as their toxic ...
Computer Graphics came into the medical world especially after the arrival of 3D medical imaging. Computer Graphics techniques are already integrated in the diagnosis procedure by means of the visual tridimensional analysis of computer tomography, magnetic ...
David Hilbert discovered in 1895 an important metric that is canonically associated to any convex domain Ω in the Euclidean (or projective) space. This metric is known to be Finslerian, and the usual proof assumes a certain degree of smoothness of t ...
In many signal such speech, bio-signals, protein chains, etc. there is a dependency between consecutive vectors. As the dependency is limited in duration such data can be called as Piecewise-Dependent- Data (PDD). In clustering it is frequently needed to m ...
Dispersal is often viewed as a process on which the landscape has little effect. This is particularly apparent in populations’ genetic and ecological studies, where isolation by distance is generally tested using a Euclidean distance between populations. H ...
Neuron models, in particular conductance-based compartmental models, often have numerous parameters that cannot be directly determined experimentally and must be constrained by an optimization procedure. A common practice in evaluating the utility of such ...
Milling is a most common type of material removal process by rotating tools to create a variety of features on a part. The material is removed in a controlled way by sweeping a rotating cylindrical tool along the specific trajectory known as milling tool p ...
In the past few years, the level set method has been extensively used for the numerical solution of interface problems in different domains, from free-surface and mean curvature flows to image processing. A crucial ingredient in every implementation of the ...
The characterization of signals and images in manifolds often lead to efficient dimensionality reduction algorithms based on manifold distance computation for analysis or classification tasks. We propose in this paper a method for the discretization of sig ...
We construct parametric active contours (snakes) for outlining cells in histology images. These snakes are defined in terms of cubic B-spline basis functions. We use a steerable ridge detector for obtaining a reliable map of the cell boundaries. Using the ...
