چکیده

We describe a technique for matching a single, learned elastic model of the shape of normal chromosomes to chromosomal images. Our model has a hierarchical organisation, with increasingly coarse shape descriptions at higher levels. A problem of finding the model description most likely to have generated an image is reduced to one of matching the locations of model points to the locations of image features encoded on a Kohonen Self-Organising Map (SOM). During matching, coarse shape information is communicated between levels via fixed, viewpoint-independent transformations between object-based frames. After matching, frame parameters provide a compact, multi-scale description of important shape information. We propose using this information to train a neural network to recognise structurally damaged chromosomes.

Landforms identification using neural network-self organizing map and SRTM data

During an 11 days mission in February 2000 the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) collected data over 80% of the Earth's land surface, for all areas between 60 degrees N and 56 degrees S latitude. Since SRTM data became available, many studies utilized them for application in topography and morphometric landscape analysis. Exploiting SRTM data for recognition and extraction of topographic ...

Adaptive Tunable Vibration Absorber using Shape Memory Alloy

This study presents a new approach to control the nonlinear dynamics of an adaptive absorber using shape memory alloy (SMA) element. Shape memory alloys are classified as smart materials that can remember their original shape after deformation. Stress and temperature-induced phase transformations are two typical behaviors of shape memory alloys. Changing the stiffness associated with phase tran...

A Self-Organising Hybrid Model for Dynamic Text Clustering

A text clustering neural model, traditionally, is assumed to cluster static text information and represent its inner structure on a flat map. However, the quantity of text information is continuously growing and the relationships between them are usually complicated. Therefore, the information is not static and a flat map may be not enough to describe the relationships of input data. In this pa...

Matching of Polygon Objects by Optimizing Geometric Criteria

Despite the semantic criteria, geometric criteria have different performances on polygon feature matching in different vector datasets. By using these criteria for measuring the similarity of two polygons in all matchings, the same results would not have been obtained. To achieve the best matching results, the determination of optimal geometric criteria for each dataset is considered necessary....
