Isocontour mapping is efficient for extracting meaningful information from a biomedical image in a topographic analysis. Isocontour extraction from real world medical images is difficult due to noise and other factors. As such, adaptive selection of contour generation parameters is needed. This paper proposes an algorithm for generating an adaptive contour map that is spatially adjusted. It is ...

Let P be an hyperplane in R , and denote by dH the Hausdorff distance. We show that for all positive radius r < 1 there is an ε > 0, such that if K is a Reifenbergflat set in B(0, 1) ⊂ R that contains the origin, with dH(K,P ) ≤ ε, and if u is an energy minimizing function in B(0, 1)\K with restricted values on ∂B(0, 1)\K, then the normalized energy of u in B(0, r)\K is bounded by the normalize...

the shah-kuh granitoid has intruded in the triassic–jurassic, pelitic and psammitic low-grade metamorphic rocks of the ne lutblock, in central iran. cordierite porphyroblasts are common in the southern pelitic sediments, but are rare in the northern psammiticrocks, in the contact aureole. deformation fabrics in the contact aureole are well-preserved within the cordierite porphyroblasts. therela...

AbstractStructural assessment and seismic vulnerability of ancient masonry buildings is a difficult task even when employing advanced specialized technical skills, which requires complex study. T...

This paper describes Idries Shah's Sufism thinking as a counter to religious formalism. Because formalism will give birth an exclusive nature and lead religious-based radicalism. Therefore, this study really needs be done in order realize people who are inclusive tolerant. research was carried out by library research, analyzing the original writings of Shah. Data were collected through document...
