Objective(s): We evaluated edge artifacts in relation to phantom diameter and reconstruction parameters in point spread function (PSF)-based positron emission tomography (PET) image reconstruction.Methods: PET data were acquired from an original cone-shaped phantom filled with 18F solution (21.9 kBq/mL) for 10 min using a Biograph mCT scanner. The images were reconstructed using the baseline or...

The concept of super line graph was introduced in the year 1995 by Bagga, Beineke and Varma. Given a graph with at least r edges, the super line graph of index r, Lr(G), has as its vertices the sets of r-edges of G, with two adjacent if there is an edge in one set adjacent to an edge in the other set. The line completion number lc(G) of a graph G is the least positive integer r for which Lr(G) ...

In this paper, we explore the linear response of one dimensionalquasiperiodic structure based on Fibonacci sequence composed of silicon dioxide,polystyrene and graphene materials. Here, a graphene monolayer is sandwichedbetween two adjacent layers. The numerical results are obtained by using the standardtransfer matrix method. Due to the presence of graphene sheet in eac...

automatic road extraction from aerial images can be very helpful in traffic control and vehicle guidance systems. most of the road detection approaches are based on image segmentation algorithms. color-based segmentation is very sensitive to light changes and consequently the change of weather condition affects the recognition rate of road detection systems. in order to reduce the light change ...

in this paper, by means of fuzzy approaches, an accurate method is introduced for edging of color photographs. the difference between our method with other similar methods is the use of a morphological operation to think or thick the obtained edges. in this proposed method, a 3×3 window is dragged on the photo. for each block, 12 point sets will be defined, each including two non-overlapping po...

in this paper, we present an edge detection method based on wavelet transform and hessian matrix of image at each pixel. many methods which based on wavelet transform, use wavelet transform to approximate the gradient of image and detect edges by searching the modulus maximum of gradient vectors. in our scheme, we use wavelet transform to approximate hessian matrix of image at each pixel, too. ...

‎let $x=left(‎ ‎begin{array}{llll}‎ ‎ x_1 & ldots & x_{n-1}& x_n‎ ‎ x_2& ldots & x_n & x_{n+1}‎ ‎end{array}right)$ be the hankel matrix of size $2times n$ and let $g$ be a closed graph on the vertex set $[n].$ we study the binomial ideal $i_gsubset k[x_1,ldots,x_{n+1}]$ which is generated by all the $2$-minors of $x$ which correspond to the edges of $g.$ we show that...
