A coarse-to-fine approach to prostate boundary segmentation in ultrasound images
BACKGROUND In this paper a novel method for prostate segmentation in transrectal ultrasound images is presented. METHODS A segmentation procedure consisting of four main stages is proposed. In the first stage, a locally adaptive contrast enhancement method is used to generate a well-contrasted image. In the second stage, this enhanced image is thresholded to extract an area containing the pro...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولA Parallel Optimized Approach for Prostate Boundary Segmentation from Ultrasound Images
This paper presents an automated multi-step algorithm for segmenting the prostate boundary from ultrasound images. As the acquired ultrasound images are usually affected due to the presence of Speckle and other noise artifacts, the first step is to pre-process these images using Sticks Filtering. Further, in stage two an initial contour is determined from these pre-processed images. Finally, An...
متن کاملa frame semantic approach to the study of translating cultural scripts in salingers franny and zooey
the frame semantic theory is a nascent approach in the area of translation studies which goes beyond the linguistic barriers and helps us to incorporate cognitive and cultural factors to the study of translation. based on rojos analytical model (2002b), which centered in the frames or knowledge structures activated in the text, the present research explores the various translation problems that...
15 صفحه اولA Coarse-to-Fine Human Body Segmentation Method in Video
Human body precise segmentation is difficult because of inter-occlusion when there are multiple human bodies in video. A coarse-to-fine segmentation method is proposed. In coarse segmentation, human shape models are used to get human’s position and coarse region. The human models with variant scale and posture are constructed with head, torso, and legs. For each human body, its corresponding hu...
