Recent Advances in Techniques for Hyperspectral Image Processing

2009

International audience; Imaging spectroscopy, also known as hyperspectral imaging, has been transformed in less than thirty years from being a sparse research tool into a commodity product available to a broad user community. Currently, there is a need for standardized data processing techniques able to take into account the special properties of hyperspec- tral data. In this paper, we provide a seminal view on recent advances in techniques for hyperspectral image processing. Our main focus is on the design of techniques able to deal with the high-dimensional nature of the data, and to integrate the spa- tial and spectral information. Performance of the discussed techniques is evaluated in …

Snapshot hyperspectral system for noninvasive skin blood oxygen saturation monitoring

2018

The present study introduces recently developed compact hyperspectral snapshot system (device and software) for skin oxygen saturation monitoring. This prototype device involves compact snapshot hyperspectral camera, multi-wavelength illuminator, optical filter and crossed polarizers. The device was validated using reference color samples and and in-vivo during finger arterial occlusion tests. The prototype system demonstrated good performance of skin hyperspectral measurements in spectral range of 500-630nm. The results confirmed reliability of developed system for in-vivo assessment of skin blood oxygen saturation.

Towards single snapshot multispectral skin assessment

2012

Skin assessment technology based on comparative analysis of single-pixel RGB signal values at poly-chromatic illumination has been proposed. Multi-spectral imaging information from a single snapshot RGB image data set with the inter-channel crosstalk correction can be extracted this way. Proof-of-concept evaluations and measurement results are presented and discussed. Potential of bi-chromatic illumination for skin hemoglobin mapping during arterial occlusion test has been demonstrated.

A Snapshot of the World of Global Multinationals – An Industry Based Analysis of Fortune Global 500 Companies

2017

Abstract For better or for worse, the “corporations rule the world” assertion is nowadays more actual and accurate than ever before, as multinational companies represent the undisputable engine of the globalization process, and the latter continuously (re)creates the background against which global multinationals are flourishing, while reinforcing their “domination”. Since 1995, the Fortune Global 500 ranking (FG 500) annually provides a comprehensive and eloquent image of the world of global multinationals; the merits of the FG 500 ranking go beyond the synchronic approach of the characteristics of global multinationals (in terms of revenues, profits, assets and employees - by sector, indu…

A multiplex SNP typing approach for the DNA pyrosequencing technology

2006

Abstract We have developed a multiplex Pyrosequencing assay which enables the simultaneous analyses of 23 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the human genome selected by the SNPforID Consortium. In our investigations we have studied the multiplex capacity of the PSQ™ 96MA instrument (Biotage AB). To test the reliability of SNP typing by Pyrosequencing the SNPs were analysed in parallel by using the SNaPshot minisequencing technique as reference method.

Introduction to the Issue on Advances in Remote Sensing Image Processing

2011

The papers in this special issue span a wide range of problems arising in modern remote sensing data analysis and provide a snapshot in the state-of-the-art of remote sensing image processing. More advances are expected in the near future, mainly due to the increasing user demands in terms of spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions of data, and of products generated from these data by automatic processing techniques.

Snapshot RGB mapping of skin melanin and hemoglobin.

2015

The concept of snapshot red-green-blue (RGB) multispectral imaging was applied for skin chromophore mapping. Three monochromatic spectral images have been extracted from a single RGB image dataset at simultaneous illumination of skin by 473-, 532-, and 659-nm laser lines. The spectral images were further transformed into distribution maps of skin melanin, oxyhemoglobin, and deoxyhemoglobin, related to pigmented and vascular skin malformations. The performance and clinical potential of the proposed technique are discussed

SnapShot: Hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the sixth most common cancer globally and the second most lethal cancer worldwide. This SnapShot depicts the molecular and morphological features of this heterogeneous disease, as well as outlines associated prognostic factors, current and emerging therapies, and challenges ahead.

Nella giostra della social photography

2018

Oggi la fotografia va ben oltre la fissazione dei ricordi. Il volume riprende la nota ricerca di Bourdieu relativa agli usi sociali della fotografia intorno alla metà degli anni Sessanta. Da questa si desume che un tempo gli scatti dei non professionisti, mediati dall'habitus di classe, intercettavano i momenti topici della vita sociale e le tipicità espresse da una cultura condivisa. Mentre le foto dei professionisti aspiravano a riconoscere i momenti decisivi in senso autoriale in vari ambiti (reportage, moda, paesaggio, pubblicità…). Oggi, in virtù dell'accelerazione sociale, siamo incerti sulla direzione della Storia. Tutti i fenomeni sono potenzialità del mondo, come tutte le immagini …
