A force sensor based method to detect the instant of needle puncture to the layers of tissues is proposed. A set of needle and sheath attached to a pair of coaxial force sensors wa...
Inspection of reflection line patterns is a standard way to check the quality of free form surfaces. In this paper, we describe an approach which enables the designer to control d...
We present a text-based approach for the automatic indexing and retrieval of digital photographs taken at crime scenes. Our research prototype, SOCIS, goes beyond keyword-based ap...
The analysis of texture is an important subroutine in application areas as diverse as biology, medicine, robotics, and forensic science. While the last three decades have seen ext...
We present a new variational level-set-based segmentation
formulation that uses both shape and intensity prior information
learned from a training set. By applying Bayes’
rule...
