In this paper, a subband coding system which dynamically adapts to the local orientation of image features is investigated. In particular, the re-orientation scheme proposed in [1] is used in conjunction with a separable octave-band subband decomposition. This is then followed by e cient coding techniques such embedded zerotrees, trellis coded quantization, and stackrun coding. The coded images...

During development of new and experimental imaging techniques, one must compare with other well established methods to qualify the validity of the new methods. The use of diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging for the visualization of collateral nerve fibers in the spinal cord was recently proposed. To validate this new imaging method, the MR results need to be compared with histology tiss...

In the present investigation, a systematic study on the dependence of chelating agents on the size control of silver phosphate Ag3PO4 powders is presented. The effect of two different capping-ligands (monoethanolamine (MEA) and oleylamine (OLA) as amino-additives) is studied using sol-gel route. Structural and morphological characterization techniques were used to quantify...

The present investigation describes the evaluation of feasibility of MWCNT-Fe3O4 nanocomposite toward adsorptive removal of Co(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution in batch mode. The Fe3O4–MWCNT hybrid was prepared using a simple one-pot strategy via in situ growth of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles onto the surface of the MWCNT...

Erythrosine B is widely used for dyeing in various applications, especially in the food industry, despite its already proved toxicity and carcinogenicity. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of the synthesis process of US/S2O8-2 in removing erythrosine B dye from aqueous solution. In this experimental study, the removal of erythros...
