Simulations in Biomedicine V
Computer models have become increasingly successful in simulating biological phenomena. The advantages of this approach are numerous, particularly in biomedicine where it has led to a better understanding of the mechanics of physiological processes. The use of computational models has also spread to many applications in medicine, as demonstrated by the contents of this volume. Containing papers presented at the Fifth International Conference on Computer Simulations in Biomedicine, the book covers a broad spectrum of topics on applications in this area. The contributions featured are arranged in sections according to their medical and biological perspective in order to make the contents more ...
Segmentation and Recovery of Superquadrics
A representation of objects by their parts is the dominant strategy for representing complex 3D objects in many disciplines. In computer vision and robotics, superquadrics are among the most widespread part models. Superquadrics are a family of parametric models that cover a wide variety of smoothly changing 3D symmetric shapes, which are controlled with a small number of parameters and which can be augmented with the addition of global and local deformations. The book covers, in depth, the geometric properties of superquadrics. The main contribution of the book is an original approach to the recovery and segmentation of superquadrics from range images. Several applications of superquadrics in computer vision and robotics are thoroughly discussed and, in particular, the use of superquadrics for range image registration is demonstrated. Audience: The book is intended for readers of all levels who are familiar with and interested in computer vision issues.
Human Factors in Computing and Informatics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Human Factors in Computing and Informatics, SouthCHI 2013, held in Maribor, Slovenia, in July 2013. SouthCHI is the successor of the USAB Conference series and promotes all aspects of human-computer interaction. The 38 revised full papers presented together with 12 short papers, 4 posters and 3 doctoral thesis papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 169 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: measurement and usability evaluation; usability evaluation - medical environments; accessibility methodologies; game-based methodologies; Web-based systems and attribution research; virtual environments; design culture for ageing well: designing for "situated elderliness"; input devices; adaptive systems and intelligent agents; and assessing the state of HCI research and practice in South-Eastern Europe.
Pattern Recognition
We are proud to present the DAGM 2002 proceedings, which are the result of the e?orts of many people. First, there are the many authors, who have submitted so many excellent cont- butions. We received more than 140 papers, of which we could only accept about half in order not to overload the program. Only about one in seven submitted papers could be delivered as an oral presentation, for the same reason. But it needs to be said that almost all submissions were of a really high quality. This strong program could not have been put together without the support of the Program Committee. They took their responsibility most seriously and we are very grateful for their reviewing work, which certain...
Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI'98
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI'98, held in Cambridge, MA, USA, in October 1998. The 134 revised papers presented were carefully selected from a total of 243 submissions. The book is divided into topical sections on surgical planning, surgical navigation and measurements, cardiac image analysis, medical robotic systems, surgical systems and simulators, segmentation, computational neuroanatomy, biomechanics, detection in medical images, data acquisition and processing, neurosurgery and neuroscience, shape analysis, feature extraction, registration, and ultrasound.
Automatic Extraction of Man-made Objects from Aerial and Satellite Images III
This work is a collection of papers from the world's leading research groups in the field of automatic extraction of objects, especially buildings and roads, from aerial and space imagery, including new sensors like SAR and lidar.
Creativity
What is creativity? There are many definitions, many of which involve trying different experiences, searching for new solutions, exercising our brains, and meeting and talking with new people. To be creative we need to believe in our skills and step outside our comfort zones in the search for new challenges. This book is a discussion of creativity in four parts: creativity behaviour, creativity learning, creativity in science and arts, and creativity tendencies. Chapters address such topics as creativity in children, creativity in education, creativity at the emotional level, and more.

Image Mosaicing and Super-resolution
This book investigates sets of images consisting of many overlapping viewsofa scene, and how the information contained within them may be combined to produce single images of superior quality. The generic name for such techniques is frame fusion. Using frame fusion, it is possible to extend the fieldof view beyond that ofany single image, to reduce noise, to restore high-frequency content, and even to increase spatial resolution and dynamic range. The aim in this book is to develop efficient, robust and automated frame fusion algorithms which may be applied to real image sequences. An essential step required to enable frame fusion is image registration: computing the point-to-point mapping b...
