The majority of MCA aneurysms are saccular lesions that arise at the MCA bifurcation region [1-5]. Aneurysms involving the M1 segment are less common, accounting for approximately12% of MCA aneurysms, and are generally small saccular lesions at the origin of the anterior temporal artery or a lenticulostriatal perforator [6,7]. MCA-M1 fusiform lesions vary significantly from their saccular count...

The Morphological Component Analysis (MCA) is a a new method which allows us to separate features contained in an image when these features present different morphological aspects. We show that MCA can be very useful for decomposing images into texture and piecewise smooth (cartoon) parts or for inpainting applications. We extend MCA to a multichannel MCA (MMCA) for analyzing multispectral data...

In this paper we investigate the potential of Subset Multiple Correspondence Analysis (s-MCA), a variant of MCA, to visually explore two-mode networks. We discuss how s-MCA can be useful to focus the analysis on interesting subsets of events in an affiliation network while preserving the properties of the analysis of the complete network. This unique characteristic of the method is also particu...

In this paper, we develop a mixed-initiative intelligent tutor for the game of Sudoku called MITS. We begin by developing a characterization of the strategies used in Sudoku as the basis for teaching the student how to play. In order to reason about interaction with the student, we also introduce a student modeling component motivated by the mixed-initiative model of Fleming and Cohen that trac...
