background: jaw bone quality plays an essential role in treatment planning and prognosis of dental implants. regarding several available methods for bone density measurements, they are not routinely used before implant surgery due to hard accessibility. objective: an in vitro investigation of correlation between average gray scale in direct digital radiographs and hounsfield units in ct-scan pr...

In this paper the analysis of gray level corner detections has been carried out. The performances of cornerness measures for some corner detection algorithms are discussed. This paper presents a new approach for corner detection called the GradientDirection corner detector which is developed from the popular Plessey corner detector. The GradientDirection corner detector is based on the measure ...

The aim of this paper is image encryption using Genetic Algorithm (GA). The proposed encryption method consists of two phases. In modification phase, pixels locations are altered to reduce correlation among adjacent pixels. Then, pixels values are changed in the diffusion phase to encrypt the input image. Both phases are performed by GA with binary chromosomes. For modification phase, these bin...

In this paper we describe a super-resolving approach based upon gray level coding of the information. Thus, the imaged object should have limited number of gray levels. The proposed approach overcomes the resolution limitations caused either by the optics or by the finite size of the detector. In contrast to other existing super resolution techniques that use time or wavelength multiplexing, in...
