Image inpainting is the art of predicting damaged regions of an image. The manual way of image inpainting is a time consuming. Therefore, there must be an automatic digital method for image inpainting that recovers the image from the damaged regions. In this paper, a novel statistical image inpainting algorithm based on Kriging interpolation technique was proposed. Kriging technique automatical...

A variational model for reconstruction of damaged color images is studied, in particular in the case where only finitely many colors are admissible for the reconstructed image. An existence result and regularity properties of minimizers are presented.

Considerable progress has been made over the last 15 years on building adaptive control systems to assist pilots in flying damaged aircraft. Once a pilot has regained control of a damaged aircraft, the next problem is to determine the best site for an emergency landing. In general, the decision depends on many factors including the actual control envelope of the aircraft, distance to the site, ...

Dr Elliman asked whether other clinicians had experience of damaged implants. Dr Rekers replied that breakage is rare and would not alter contraceptive efficacy. I have removed damaged implants from seven patients since June 2011, all of which were sited correctly. Two patients underwent subsequent removal of a second damaged implant. All the patients were aware of abnormality, but only one rem...

STRAUSS 8 defines a child who has brain damage as one who before, during or after birth, has received an injury to, or suffered an infection of the brain. It is his opinion that defects of the neurometer system may be present or absent and that such a child may show disturbances in perception, thinking and emotional behavior, either separately or in combination. Some time ago, Stevens and Birch...

The objective of this paper is to assess the promise of a novel tool for structural safety decision-making in severe unforeseen hazards. A straightforward measure is put forth for measuring the intensity of unforeseen hazards: the number of connected members removed from a structure in a brittle fashion. The tool selected for assessing this severe demand is the reduction in the buckling load ca...

Eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr.) is an evergreen conifer that is widely dispersed in the northeastern United States. Loss of the hemlock component in the eastern forest due to the introduced hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) will have long-term consequences for terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Some of the functional attributes of hemlock (vertical structure diversity, ever...

Stories register in human memory in special ways, and stories about neurological cases can entertain and move a reader while simultaneously being an important part of any neuroscience curriculum. Here we describe a course taught in the context of the liberal arts curriculum of Baldwin-Wallace College. Students from a variety of disciplines learned basic neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neuroch...

Current thinking is that Ménière’s disease (or, more accurately, Ménière’s syndrome) is a phenotype of unstable or erratic inner ear hearing and vestibular function that arises from failure of one or more of the many inner ear homoeostatic systems that regulate endolymph and perilymph, aff erent and eff erent nerve signalling, and blood fl ow. Clinically, the fl uctuating and progressive sensor...
