Digital Watermarking embeds identifying information in an image, which is not always hidden, in such a manner that it cannot easily be removed. This is used to identify the owner of the work, to authenticate the content, to trace illegal copies of the work. So many digital image watermarking techniques have been implemented to stop the illegal used of digital content. This correlation based wat...

This study presents medical CT scan image feature analysis, creation of data bank and development of a data mining technique. A dataset of 50 known pancreas digital CT scan images with their clinical diagnosis were composed. All images were subjected for image textual characters (energy, entropy, contrast, homogeneity and correlation), which were statistically calculated in numerical MAT lab en...

The mechanisms which lead to shear failure of longitudinally reinforced concrete beams are complex and often misunderstood. In this paper, a combination of a special closed loop test technique and machine vision are applied to tests on two reinforced concrete beams failing in shear: one made of normal strength concrete and the second of high strength concrete. To control the progression of the ...

Internet and Multimedia technologies have become our daily needs. Hence it has become a common practice to create copy, transmit and distribute digital data. Obviously, it leads to unauthorized replication problem. Digital image watermarking provides copyright protection to image by hiding appropriate information in original image to declare rightful ownership. Aim of this paper is to provide c...

Digital watermarking is a key technique practical intellectual property protecting systems and concealment correspondence systems. In this paper, we discussed a blind detection method for the digital image watermark. The theories research show that the orthogonal projection sequence of a digital image is one-to-one correspondence with this digital image. By this conclusion, we designed a novel ...

One of the most common positioning errors in panoramic radiography is palatoglossal air space above the apices of the root of maxillary teeth. It causes a radiolucency obscuring the apices of maxillary teeth. In the case of this positioning error, the imaging should be repeated. This causes the patient be exposed to radiation again. To avoid the repetition of exposing harmful X-rays to the pati...

objectives: in restorative dentistry, it is essential to estimate the amount of remnant tooth structure after caries removal to make the best treatment plan. the present study was aimed to determine whether there is a correlation between the real thickness of remnant dentin under carious lesion and the radiographical measurement from photostimulable phosphor plates (psps). methods: a whole numb...

With the rapid increase of digital data exchange and increased usage of digital images, it is important to protect the confidential image data from illegal access. Digital image scrambling or encryption is the solution which transforms a meaningful image into a meaningless or disordered image in order to enhance the ability to confront attack and in turn improve the security. This paper present...

nowadays, quality control of bread, especially in large scale production, requires application of novel methods. in this research, image analysis of digital images of barbary bread enriched with soy flour was carried out at two storage intervals. using imagej software, crumb features (mean cell area and void fraction) were computed for each image. fractal dimensions of bread crumb images were m...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare digital and conventional radiography in determining the working length of dilacerated canals.methods: thirty nine human extracted single-rooted teeth with root curvature more than 35 degrees were included in this study. after access preparation, a file was inserted into the canal and advanced until the file tip was visualized at the foramen. wi...
