Contrast Enhancement of Mammograms for Rapid Detection of Microcalcification Clusters

Introduction Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women.  Early detection of breast cancer is the key to reducing the associated mortality rate. The presence of microcalcifications clusters (MCCs) is one of the earliest signs of breast cancer. Due to poor imaging contrast of mammograms and noise contamination, radiologists may overlook some diagnostic signs, specially t...

Enhancement of low-energy electron emission in 2D radioactive films.

High-energy radiation has been used for decades; however, the role of low-energy electrons created during irradiation has only recently begun to be appreciated. Low-energy electrons are the most important component of radiation damage in biological environments because they have subcellular ranges, interact destructively with chemical bonds, and are the most abundant product of ionizing particl...

Nonlinear Enhancement of Extremely High Contrast Images for Visibility Improvement

This paper presents a novel image enhancement algorithm using a multilevel windowed inverse sigmoid (MWIS) function for rendering images captured under extremely non uniform lighting conditions. MWIS based image enhancement is a combination of three processes viz. adaptive intensity enhancement, contrast enhancement and color restoration. Adaptive intensity enhancement uses the non linear trans...

meanings, we use context to select the meaning intended by the speaker. But context is involved at an even earlier level in speech perception because it allows us to recognize sounds as words. We perceive spoken words as a sequence of vowel and consonant sounds, that is, as a sequence of phonemes. Perceptually, each phoneme seems fixed, but acoustically, a phoneme can vary considerably dependin...
