Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSegmentation of Ureteric and Bladder Calculi in Ultrasound ImagesS. SridharProblem statement: The framework for segmenting calculi in ureter and bladder using ultrasound images is proposed in this study. Calculi are due to abnormal collection of certain chemicals like oxalate, phosphate and uric acid. These calculi can be present in kidney, urethra or in urinary bladder. The extraction of calculi in medical images is a difficult task as no standard … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImproving Diagnostic Viewing of Medical Images using Enhancement AlgorithmsHanan Saleh S. Ahmed, Md Jan NordinProblem statement: Various images are low quality and difficultly to detect and extract information. Therefore, the image has to get under a process called image enhancement which contains an aggregation of techniques that look for improving the visual aspect of an image. Medical images are one of the fundamental images, because they are used in more sensitive field which is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 18 Oct 2011 · 7,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDot Detection of Braille Images Using A Mixture of Beta DistributionsAmany Al-Saleh, Ali El-Zaart, Abdul Malik Al-SalmanProblem statement: Braille is a tactile format of written communication for people with low vision and blindness worldwide. Optical Braille Recognition (OBR) offers many benefits to Braille users and people who work with them. Approach: This study presents an algorithm for detecting dots composing braille characters in an image of embossed braille material obtained by an optical scanner. We assumed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 6 Sep 2011 · 7,436 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImprovement of Image Matching by using the Proximity Criterion: Application to Omnidirectional and Perspective ImagesIbrahim Guelzim, Ahmed Hammouch, Driss AboutajdineProblem statement: In computer vision, matching is an important phase for several applications (object reconstruction, robot navigation ...). The similarity measures used provided results which could be improved. Approach: This research proposed to improve image matching by using the proximity criterion. The similarity measures used mutual information and correlation coefficient. The matching was done between neighborhoods of points of interest … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 15 Jul 2011 · 6,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System Approach for the Automatic Screening of Diabetic Retinopathy in Fundus ImagesS. Kavitha, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most significant factors contributing to blindness and so early diagnosis and timely treatment is particularly important to prevent visual loss. Approach: An integrated approach for extraction of blood vessels and exudates detection was proposed to screen diabetic retinopathy. An automated classifier was developed based on Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to differentiate … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSkin Images SegmentationAli El-ZaartProblem statement: Image segmentation is a fundamental step in many applications of image processing. Skin cancer has been the most common of all new cancers detected each year. At early stage detection of skin cancer, simple and economic treatment can cure it mostly. An accurate segmentation of skin images can help the diagnosis to define well the region of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Jul 2010 · 7,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleClinical Assessment of Watermarked Medical ImagesJasni Mohamad Zain, Abdul Rani M. Fauzi, Azian A. AzizProblem statement: Digital watermarking provides security to medical images. Watermarking in Region Of Interest (ROI) however distorts medical images but it is known that the resulting loss of fidelity is visually imperceptible. Approach: Clinical assessment will objectively evaluate the distortion on medical images to see whether or not medical diagnosis is altered. We used 75 medical images consisting of x-rays, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 8,125 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleActive Fire Monitoring with Level 1.5 MSG Satellite ImagesAbdelatif Hassini, Farid Benabdelouahed, Noureddine Benabadji, Ahmed Hafid BelbachirThe first of the new generation of Meteosat satellites, known as Meteosat Second Generation (MSG-1), was launched in August 2002. As with the current Meteosat series, MSG is spin-stabilized and capable of greatly enhanced Earth observations. The satellite’s 12-channel imager, known formally as the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI), observes the full disk of the Earth with an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Hybrid Fuzzy Neural Networks for the Detection of Tumors in Medical ImagesN. Benamrane, A. Freville, R. NekkacheIn this study, we propose an approach to detect suspect zones or tumors in medical images. The idea is to define with precision the existence of different kinds of lesions using a hybrid system, which combines Fuzzy Neural Networks and Expert System. After applying a method of image segmentation to extract regions (by region growing algorithm or by mathematical morphology … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMyocardial Motion Analysis of Echocardiography Images using Optical Flow Radial Direction DistributionSlamet Riyadi, Mohd Marzuki Mustafa, Aini HussainProblem statement: Myocardial motion is important information for physicians in diagnosing cardiac abnormalities. The motion vector of myocardial can be computed using optical flow technique, which then can be further analyzed based on its magnitude and angle. In practice, physicians are not concern about the angle of vector itself, but are more interested on whether a segment is moving to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,635 accessesView PDFCite
