Multifacet structure of observed reconstructed integral images.
2005
Three-dimensional images generated by an integral imaging system suffer from degradations in the form of grid of multiple facets. This multifacet structure breaks the continuity of the observed image and therefore reduces its visual quality. We perform an analysis of this effect and present the guidelines in the design of lenslet imaging parameters for optimization of viewing conditions with respect to the multifacet degradation. We consider the optimization of the system in terms of field of view, observer position and pupil function, lenslet parameters, and type of reconstruction. Numerical tests are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.
Diffusion equations with negentropy applied to denoise mammographic images.
2006
Mammography is a radiographic technique used for the detection of breast lesions. The analysis of the digital image normally requires a previous application of filters as a preprocessing step to reduce the noise level of the image, while preserving important details to carry out a suitable diagnostic. In the literature, there are a large amount of denoising techniques applied to different medical images. In this work we have studied the performance of a diffusive filter with a stopping condition based on the statistical concept of negentropy, applied to denoise mammographic images. The negentropy has been succesfully prove with other denoising methods as independent component analysis by th…
Evaluation of Erythema Severity in Dermatoscopic Images of Canine Skin: Erythema Index Assessment and Image Sampling Reliability.
2021
The regular monitoring of erythema, one of the most important skin lesions in atopic (allergic) dogs, is essential for successful anti-allergic therapy. The smartphone-based dermatoscopy enables a convenient way to acquire quality images of erythematous skin. However, the image sampling to evaluate erythema severity is still done manually, introducing result variability. In this study, we investigated the correlation between the most popular erythema indices (EIs) and dermatologists’ erythema perception, and we measured intra- and inter-rater variability of the currently-used manual image-sampling methods (ISMs). We showed that the EIBRG, based on all three RGB (red, green, and blue) channe…
Inclusive Legal Positivism, Legal Interpretation and Value-Judgments
2009
In questo saggio si esamina criticamente la tradizione di ricerca del positivsmo giuridico denominata "inclusive positivism", con riferimento soprattutto al pensiero del filosofo del diritto americano Jules Coleman.Viene soprattutto focalizzata criticamente la questione del modo in cui l'inclusive positivism intende il ruolo dei giudizi di valore nell'interpretazione giuridica e nell'attività dogmatica dei giuristi. La tesi che l'autore avanza è che la presenza dei giudizi di valore è necessaria nell'attività di giudici e giuristi e attraversa anche la componente conoscitiva di tale attività.
Analysis of the Standard Definition of Cosmopolitanism
2021
This chapter investigates the traditional definition of cosmopolitanism which understands cosmopolitanism as moral egalitarianism. It sets out in detail how the three core elements (individualism, universality, and generality) allow so much room for interpretation that the definition hardly provides any information on what moral egalitarianism means. It confirms that cosmopolitanism as moral egalitarianism includes almost all theories of global justice, even such that are commonly seen as opposing positions.
A Semantic Collaborative Clustering Approach Based on Confusion Matrix
2019
In this paper we discuss about a new images retrieval technique based on clustering. We argue that images don’t have an intrinsic meaning, but they can receive different interpretation. These images can complicate documents retrieval. However, users need a quick and direct access to documents. To answer this requirement, we propose a retrieval approach which use a collaborative clustering technique based on Confusion matrix.
Music Listening and Communication Skills Improvement for Children up to Three Years
2015
Theoretical part of paper will be devoted to an important problem at an early age the child’s development i.e. listening skills and communication skills development for children up to three years. The aim of the report – explored music listening and communication skills development opportunities for children up to three years. The theoretical part will be based on scientific research. The empirical part will be offered and described in music lessons, which will improve the communication skills of children up to three years. The paper will be used qualitative method research approach which will consist of a children’s activity monitoring, observation describe their interpretation of the resu…
2D:4D Is Negatively Associated to Aggressive Dominance in Men: A Response to Voracek (2013)
2013
We do not agree with the interpretation and evaluation of our article by Voracek. We feel that our results and our interpretation of the results are supported by our data analyses and do add to the current understanding of the relationship between 2D:4D and personality. We feel confident we can address many, if not all, of Voracek's criticisms. However, we fully agree that 2D:4D research would benefit from more replication and from the use of larger sample sizes. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Language: en
Cómo abordar el desarrollo de una competencia transversal compleja mediante el alineamiento constructivo
2019
[EN] We present a model based on activities for the acquisition of essential competences of the scientific-technical qualifications, developed throughout the course of Cell Biology of the 1st year of the Degree in Biotechnology. For example, the search and analysis of bibliographic information and the design and interpretation of experiments are closely related and very important competences in the training of the biotechnologist, however they are not well contemplated in a specific way in the study plans. The proposed activities, designed under the premises of the constructive alignment of Biggs and Tang, develop these competences jointly and within the framework of a single subject.
On the analysis of viability data: an example with Drosophila.
1990
Larval competition experiments involving two wild type and eight mutant strains of Drosophila melanogaster have been carried out following the substitution procedure proposed by Mather and Caligari (1981). Our main goal has been to compare the competitive abilities of two phenotypically indistinguishable strains (wild and Oregon-R) by means of their responses with eight different mutants. Prior to the analyses of viability data, we have studied the normalizing effect of several transformations in order to determine which was best suited for the analyses. The differences found among the five transformations tested and the untransformed data were not very great. The folded power transformatio…
