High-frequency B-mode ultrasonography and Doppler study can reveal changes in nail anatomy and vascularization in patients with nail psoriasis (NPs). The primary objective of this study was to describe thumbnail ultrasound findings in a series of adult patients with psoriasis involving the thumbnail. It was decided to focus on the thumbnail as this is the largest finger nail and also the one mo...

In this appendix, we present some quantitative and qualitative comparisons among the PileBar interface and the ones of a couple of conventional image-browsers. In our tests, we aim to measure how fast users navigate thousands of images with image-browsers covering only a small part of the screen. In particular, the PileBar browser is compared with a horizontal thumbnail-bar and a browser with a...

The goal of this chapter is to provide a thumbnail sketch of the traditional criteria for symbolic behavior, and to then outline new themes that have emerged in contemporary work and points of departure from the traditional views. This chapter and the volume as a whole suggest that it is time to move beyond the scope of traditional theories, and call for a redefinition of the criteria for symbo...

Software tools for personal photo collection management are proliferating, but they usually have limited searching and browsing functions. We implemented the PhotoFinder prototype to enable non-technical users of personal photo collections to search and browse easily. PhotoFinder provides a set of visual Boolean query interfaces, coupled with dynamic query and query preview features. It gives u...

In this paper, we introduce an automated procedure for segmenting a given folk song field recording into its constituent stanzas. One challenge arises from the fact that these recordings are performed by elderly non-professional singers under poor recording conditions such that the constituent stanzas may reveal significant temporal and spectral deviations. Unlike a previously described segment...
