Background A various number of imaging modalities are available (eg, magnetic resonance,
x-ray, ultrasound, and biopsy) where each modality can reveal different structural aspects of …

Identifying and characterizing flame fronts is the most common task in the computer-assisted
analysis of data obtained from imaging techniques such as planar laser-induced …

We utilize a pixel-based fracture detection algorithm to digitize 80 published outcrop maps of
different scales at different locations. The key fracture properties, including fracture lengths …

Representing fractures explicitly using a discrete fracture network (DFN) approach is often
necessary to model the complex physics that govern thermo-hydro-mechanical–chemical …

With the ongoing worldwide coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, it is desirable
to develop effective algorithms to automatically detect COVID-19 with chest computed …

We present a novel approach to the detection and characterization of edges, ridges, and
blobs in two-dimensional images which exploits the symmetry properties of directionally …

This paper proposes an edge based compressively sensed (CS) geodesic active contour
(GAC) model, termed CS-GAC, to ensure faithful edge detection and accurate object …

GF-3 satellite is China's first C-band multi-polarized synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite
with the 1-meter resolution, which has been widely used in various fields. Road detection for …

Shearlets are wavelet-like systems which are better suited for handling geometric features in
multi-dimensional data than traditional wavelets. A novel method for edge and line detection …

Channels are important sedimentary features in hydrocarbon plays either as targets for
drilling or geohazards that should be avoided, depending on burial depth and fluid-fill. Either …
