Results for a mutlisensor CAD based object recognition system are presented in the context of Automatic Target Recognition using nearly boresight aligned range IR and color sensors The system is shown to identify targets in test suite of image triples This suite includes targets at low resolution unusual aspect angles and partially obscured by terrain The key concept presented in this work is t...

Melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer which is responsible for the majority of skin cancer related deaths. Recently, image-based Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems are being increasingly used to help skin cancer specialists in detecting melanoma lesions early, and consequently reduce mortality rates. In this paper, we implement the most compute-intensive classification stage i...

OBJECTIVE Although considerable evidence implicates hostility in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD), the pathogenic mechanisms remain poorly understood. We have developed a psychophysiological model that holds that altered autonomic nervous system function links psychological traits with CAD outcomes. In laboratory studies, stressors reduce high-frequency (HF) heart period variabi...

Results for a mutlisensor CAD-based object recognition system are presented in the context of Automatic Target Recognition using nearly boresight-aligned range, IR and color sensors. The system is shown to identify targets in test suite of 35 image triples. This suite includes targets at low resolution, unusual aspect angles, and partially obscured by terrain. The key concept presented in this ...

A virtual environment of design can provide the industrial designer comprehensive power and flexibilities beyond geometrical design by means of enabling modeling, analysis, and simulation of both mechanical and electronic systems in an integrated environment. The design of electronic appliance has specific characteristics distinguished by its hybrid features. To support this kind of design, iss...

The increasing system complexity imposes high demands on computer aided design (CAD) tools for system synthesis. Especially the layout (placement and routing) of a design has become a problem hard to solve. To find a ‘good’ layout, CAD tools need accurate estimators to predict area requirements, interconnection lengths, power dissipation, etc. In this paper we address the estimation of intercon...

  Background: There are widespread misconceptions about the positive effects of opium on coronary artery disease (CAD). Thus, we performed a study to explore the opium addiction process contributing factors among CAD patients using a grounded theory approach.   Methods : The sample comprised 30 addicted CAD patients and their family members, physicians, nurses and friends. Purposive and theoret...

coronary artery disease (cad) is the leading cause of mortality in many parts of the world. genome-wide association studies (gwas) have identified several genetic variants associated with cad in low-density lipoprotein receptor (ldlr) locus. this study was evaluated the possible association of genetic markers at ldlr locus with cad irrespective to lipid profile and as well as the association of...

-Most of the CAD software, which are available currently, works only on the operating system (generally windows) for which they are designed. Alternatively, the commercial CAD software is dependent upon the operating system. If CAD software is designed such that it is Independent of the operating system, then such CAD software will be much beneficial for the present scenario of the CAD software...
