Download or read book An Overview of Dental Image Processing Techniques written by G. Jaffino and published by Shanlax Publications. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dental image processing for person identification focuses on using digital dental X-rays or photographs to establish a person's identity. Each person has a unique dental "signature" defined by the number of teeth, their position, shape, size, and any dental work like fillings, crowns, or implants. Similar to general dental processing, initial steps involve noise reduction and image enhancement for better analysis. Extracted features are compared to a database of dental records, which could be antemortem (pre-mortem) X-rays of a missing person or postmortem X-rays of unidentified remains. Matching algorithms analyze the similarity between features. While not a foolproof method, dental image processing can provide strong evidence for identification, especially when combined with other forensic techniques like DNA analysis. Overall, dental image processing offers a promising tool for forensic identification, particularly when used alongside other methods.

Download or read book Developing Linear Algebra Codes on Modern Processors Emerging Research and Opportunities written by Catalán Pallarés, Sandra and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-10-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimized linear algebra (LA) libraries that are able to exploit the underlying hardware are always of interest in the high-performance computing community. The implementation of LA software has evolved along with computer architecture, while the specification remains unaltered almost from the beginning. It is important to differentiate between the specification of LA libraries and their implementation. Because LA libraries pursue high performance, the implementation for a given architecture needs to be optimized for it specifically. However, the type of operations included in the libraries, the input/output parameters, and the data types to be handled are common to all of them. This is why, while the specification remains constant, the implementation evolves with the creation of new architectures. Developing Linear Algebra Codes on Modern Processors: Emerging Research and Opportunities presents the main characteristics of LA libraries, showing the differences between the standards for sparse and dense versions. It further explores relevant linear algebra problems and shows, in a clear and understandable way, how to solve them using different computer architectures. Covering topics such as programming models, batched computing, and distributed memory platforms, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for programmers, computer scientists, engineers, students and faculty of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

Download or read book Medical Image Analysis and Informatics written by Paulo Mazzoncini de Azevedo-Marques and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the development of rapidly increasing medical imaging modalities and their applications, the need for computers and computing in image generation, processing, visualization, archival, transmission, modeling, and analysis has grown substantially. Computers are being integrated into almost every medical imaging system. Medical Image Analysis and Informatics demonstrates how quantitative analysis becomes possible by the application of computational procedures to medical images. Furthermore, it shows how quantitative and objective analysis facilitated by medical image informatics, CBIR, and CAD could lead to improved diagnosis by physicians. Whereas CAD has become a part of the clinical workflow in the detection of breast cancer with mammograms, it is not yet established in other applications. CBIR is an alternative and complementary approach for image retrieval based on measures derived from images, which could also facilitate CAD. This book shows how digital image processing techniques can assist in quantitative analysis of medical images, how pattern recognition and classification techniques can facilitate CAD, and how CAD systems can assist in achieving efficient diagnosis, in designing optimal treatment protocols, in analyzing the effects of or response to treatment, and in clinical management of various conditions. The book affirms that medical imaging, medical image analysis, medical image informatics, CBIR, and CAD are proven as well as essential techniques for health care.
