چکیده
Differences between image processing and other disciplines in the definition and the role of shape are explored. Diverse approaches to quantifying shape are reviewed. Attention is drawn to the need for close coupling between image acquisition and shape analysis. An example of the effect of the means of observation on dynamic shape extraction is drawn from linguistics. Current instrumentation for measuring shape changes in the vocal tract are described. Advanced image processing based on emerging imaging technologies is proposed for linguistic and therapeutic applications of articulatory phonetics.

متن کاملAssociation between intraoral pressure and molar position and inclination in subjects with facial asymmetry.
Although it has been suggested that an imbalance in buccolingual pressure may play a role in dental compensation of the molars and asymmetry in the mandibular dental arch in subjects with facial asymmetry, it is still unclear whether buccolingual pressure is associated with this phenomenon. Thus, the purpose of this study was to test the null hypothesis that there are no differences in cheek an...
