introduction: the process of discriminating among benign and malignant hyperplasia begun with subjective methods using light microscopy and is now being continued with computerized morphometrical analysis requiring some features. one of the main features called volume percentage of stroma (vps) is obtained by calculating the percentage of stroma texture. currently, this feature is calculated by...

We present a technique for lossy image compression based on the joint-adaptive space and frequency decomposition of images. The algorithm adapts to image content by both developing wavelet packet bases for separate areas of the image and by segmenting image subbands as needed. The elements of the expansion are a two-channel lter bank and a complete and disjoint binary segmentation system. We co...

We propose a signal based joint time-frequency segmentation algorithm as an extension to Herley et al. (IEEE Trans. Image Processing, 1997). Our algorithm provides an unconstrained multiresolution analysis in time and frequency adapted to the characteristics of the signal, where the time-frequency segmentation of Herley et al. is modified to achieve a minimum entropy criterion. Experimental res...

We propose a method of designing equiripple linear-phase FIR filters with linear constraint by carrying out the Remèz exchange algorithm. A novel technique is derived to convert a linearly constrained problem into an equivalent unconstrained one. We proposed a technique to modify the original desired frequency response so that the original linear constraint can be reduced to a simpler one (the ...

measurement of magnitude and frequency of the voltage flicker is very important for monitoring andcontrolling voltage flicker efficiently to improve the network power quality. this paper presents twonew methods for measurement of flicker signal parameters using shuffled frog leaping algorithm(sfla) and imperialist competitive algorithm (ica). this paper estimates fundamental voltage andflicker ...

A statistical analysis of functional data, obtained as reflectance values measured using a hyperspectral sensor, was used to determine water content in vine leaves. Our study was conducted using a sample of 80 vine leaves whose water content was determined by calculating the weight difference between leaves before and after drying in an oven. Two regression models, one linear and the other non-...

In this paper, we present a classification and retrieval technique targeted for retrieval of home video abstract using dimension-reduced, decorrelated spectral features of audio content. The feature extraction based on MPEG-7 descriptors consists of three main stages: Normalized Audio Spectrum Envelope (NASE), basis decomposition algorithm and basis projection, obtained by multiplying the NASE ...
