Support vector machine learning for detection of microcalcifications in mammograms
Microcalcification (MC) clusters in mammograms can be an indicator of breast cancer. In this work we propose for the first time the use of support vector machine (SVM) learning fo...

Fast model based segmentation of ultrasound data using an active image
In the present paper we propose a method for fast segmentation of ultrasound data. It is based on setting up a model depending on user input. We apply a matching scheme in order t...

Preliminary investigation of a multiple-image radiography method
Conventional radiography seeks to produce, at each location in the image plane, a measure of the x-ray absorption of the object. In this paper, we present a method of determining ...
