Boundary detection in echocardiographic images by directional gradient vector flow by Krishnan, Shankar M., Cheng, Jierong, Foo, Say Wei

“…Snakes, or active contour models, have been widely used in image segmentation. In this paper, a new type of dynamic external force for snakes named directional gradient vector flow (DGVF) is proposed for the detection of left ventricular boundary from echocardiographic images. …”

A sparse object category model for efficient learning and exhaustive recognition by Fergus, R, Perona, P, Zisserman, A

“…We present a "parts and structure" model for object category recognition that can be learnt efficiently and in a semi-supervised manner: the model is learnt from example images containing category instances, without requiring segmentation from background clutter. The model is a sparse representation of the object, and consists of a star topology configuration of parts modeling the output of a variety of feature detectors. …”

Super lubrication bottlebrush polymer particles synthesis using core cross-linking by Garnadi, Jovanca Kartika

“…We synthesized poly(dimethicone) (PDM-I) (bottlebrush polymer part) as the macroinitiator with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linking segment. Cross-linked bottlebrush polymer particles are not easily entangled and interpenetrated among each other due to the steric repulsion. …”

Estimation of the partial volume effect in MRI by González Ballester, MA, Zisserman, AP, Brady, M

“…We have demonstrated in previous work that ignoring this effect by establishing binary voxel-based segmentations introduces significant errors in quantitative measurements, such as estimations of the volumes of brain structures. …”

A sparse object category model for efficient learning and complete recognition by Fergus, R, Perona, P, Zisserman, A
