Structural architecture and active deformation pattern in the northern sector of the Aeolian-Tindari-Letojanni fault system (SE Tyrrhenian Sea-NE Sic…
2017
Framed in the current geodynamics of the central Mediterranean, the Aeolian-Tindari-Letojanni fault system is part of a wider NW-SE oriented right-lateral wrench zone which accommodates diverging motion between regional-scale blocks located at the southern edge of the Calabrian Arc. In order to investigate the structural architecture and the active deformation pattern of the northern sector of this tectonic feature, structural observations on-land, high and very-high resolution seismic reflection data, swath bathymetry data and seismological and geodetic data were merged from the Lipari-Vulcano volcanic complex (central sector of the Aeolian Islands) to the Peloritani Mountains across the G…
The use and beauty of ultra-high-resolution seismic reflection imaging in Late Quaternary marine volcaniclastic settings, Napoli Bay, Italy
2019
A Nápolyi-öbölben felvett ultra nagy felbontású egycsatornás (IKB-Seistec™) reflexiós szeizmikus szelvények korábbi geológiai és geofizikai vizsgálatok eredményeivel együtt kivételes, eddig soha nem látott felbontású szeizmikus leképezését nyújtják a Flegrei-mezők és a Somma-Vezúv felszín alá süllyedt késő-pleisztocén–holocén rétegtani felépí - tésének. A szeizmikus szelvényeken látott geometria és gravitációs magvevővel nyert üledékek adatainak összevetéséből Campania partközeli kontinentális talapzatán számos olyan üledékes és vulkáni szerkezet, valamint hidrotermális jelenség került leképezésre, melyek a legutolsó glaciális maximum (kb. 18 000 év) óta keletkeztek. A Pozzuoli-öbölben mért…
A Non-Parametric Parallel Harris-Affine Detector
2009
This paper describes a parallel version of a new automatic Harris-based corner detector. A simple but effective client-server based scheduler has been implemented in order to dynamically distribute the workload on heterogeneous parallel architectures such as Grid systems. Results obtained on the COMETA Grid show the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed approach.
Integration of a structural features-based preclassifier and a man-machine interactive classifier for a fast multi-stroke character recognition
2003
A transputer-based parallel machine for handwritten character recognition is proposed. An algorithm based on structural features and on a tree classifier was used to accomplish the pre-classification of the unknown sample in order to speed up the recognition process. The algorithm for the final classification is based on the description of the strokes through Fourier descriptors. The learning phase is accomplished through a man-machine interactive process. The proposed system can expand its knowledge base. A special representation of this knowledge base is proposed in order to record a great amount of data in a suitable way. A fast multistroke handwritten isolated character recognition syst…
A Medium Level Language for Pyramid Architectures
1989
In the paper a Parallel C Languages for pyramid architectures is described. The concept of context is introduced in order to handle concurrence between processes in massive parallel machines. Feature implementation on the PAPIA-machine are given.
Segmentation and feature extraction in capillaroscopic videos
2015
This contribution describes a method to select regions of interest as capillaries of the oral mucosa and to extract their main features useful for real diagnosis purposes. A discrete version of the wavelet transform has been adopted for segmenting the images coming from video sequences acquired by a prototype capillaroscopic, able to put in evidence the red blood flow. A set of proper characteristics is automatically computed for a correct evaluation of the peripheral microcirculation.
A Fuzzy One Class Classifier for Multi Layer Model
2009
The paper describes an application of a fuzzy one-class classifier (FOC ) for the identification of different signal patterns embedded in a noise structured background. The classification phase is applied after a preprocessing phase based on a Multi Layer Model (MLM ) that provides a preliminary signal segmentation in an interval feature space. The FOC has been tested on synthetic and real microarray data in the specific problem of DNA nucleosome and linker regions identification. Results have shown, in both cases, a good recognition rate.
Content Based Indexing of Image and Video Databases by Global and Shape Features
1996
Indexing and retrieval methods based on the image content are required to effectively use information from the large repositories of digital images and videos currently available. Both global (colour, texture, motion, etc.) and local (object shape, etc.) features are needed to perform a reliable content based retrieval. We present a method for automatic extraction of global image features, like colour and motion parameters, and their use for data restriction in video database querying. Further retrieval is therefore accomplished, in a restricted set of images, by shape feature (skeleton, local symmetry moments, correlation, etc.) local search. The proposed indexing methodology has been deve…
A Harris-based Region Detector on a Computational Grid
2007
This paper introduces a new Harris-based feature detector algorithm, characterized by no parameters tuning to detect region of interest. Preliminary results show that the proposed methodology returns good results with respect to standard detectors which need a set of parameters. An uncommon parallel implementation of the proposed algorithm is presented to support the high computational workload which is required to avoid the approximation of the results. Our parallel approach differs from the conventional one because an internal scheduler, based on the expected running time, is used to balance the data distribution on a client-server model. The aim of this paper is also to underline the adv…
