چکیده

The box counting method for fractal dimension estimation had not been applied to large or colour images thus far due to the processing time required. In this letter we present a fast, easy to implement and very easily expandable to any number of dimensions variation, the box merging method. It is applied here in RGB images which are considered as sets in 5-D space.

Scale-Specific Multifractal Medical Image Analysis

Fractal geometry has been applied widely in the analysis of medical images to characterize the irregular complex tissue structures that do not lend themselves to straightforward analysis with traditional Euclidean geometry. In this study, we treat the nonfractal behaviour of medical images over large-scale ranges by considering their box-counting fractal dimension as a scale-dependent parameter...

Content-based Image Retrieval in Image World

This thesis presents an interface to investigate the possibilities for a graphic user interface for an image database to be mapped onto an OpenGL surface. The content of the image was used to determine the placement within the interface and thus the images would be clustered according to their similarity. This would allow the user to browse over the images fluidly and interactively and would al...

Fractal Analysis of Colors and Shapes for Natural and Urbanscapes

Fractal analysis has been applied in many fields since it was proposed by Mandelbrot in 1967. Fractal dimension is a basic parameter of fractal analysis. According to the difference of fractal dimensions for images, natural landscapes and urbanscapes could be differentiated, which is of great significance. In this paper, two methods were used for two types of landscape images to discuss the dif...

Using Artificial Life to Design Machine Learning Algorithms for Decoding Gene Expression Patterns from Images

Understanding the relationship between gene expression and phenotype is important in many areas of biology and medicine. Current methods for measuring gene expression such as microarrays however are invasive, require biopsy, and expensive. These factors limit experiments to low rate temporal sampling of gene expression and prevent longitudinal studies within a single subject, reducing their sta...

Robust Potato Color Image Segmentation using Adaptive Fuzzy Inference System

Potato image segmentation is an important part of image-based potato defect detection. This paper presents a robust potato color image segmentation through a combination of a fuzzy rule based system, an image thresholding based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization and morphological operators. The proposed potato color image segmentation is robust against variation of background, distance and ...
