Entropy-based Localization of Textured Regions

2011

Appearance description is a relevant field in computer vision that enables object recognition in domains as re-identification, retrieval and classification. Important cues to describe appearance are colors and textures. However, in real cases, texture detection is challenging due to occlusions and to deformations of the clothing while person's pose changes. Moreover, in some cases, the processed images have a low resolution and methods at the state of the art for texture analysis are not appropriate. In this paper, we deal with the problem of localizing real textures for clothing description purposes, such as stripes and/or complex patterns. Our method uses the entropy of primitive distribu…

Text localization from photos

2009

In this paper a new text extraction algorithm is proposed. In real scenes the text is usually overlapped or is part of the background. To identify the text regions, in complex conditions, a method exploiting a “multi-resolution feature based method” for extracting text with undefined dimension has been developed. Once identified, the multi-resolution information are merged and skimmed through a set of Support Vector Machines (SVM). The tests and the comparisons with other techniques, performed on heterogeneous images, have shown the effectiveness of the proposed.

Automatic Volumetric Liver Segmentation Using Texture Based Region Growing

2010

In this paper an automatic texture based volumetric region growing method for liver segmentation is proposed. 3D seeded region growing is based on texture features with the automatic selection of the seed voxel inside the liver organ and the automatic threshold value computation for the region growing stop condition. Co-occurrence 3D texture features are extracted from CT abdominal volumes and the seeded region growing algorithm is based on statistics in the features space. Each CT volume is composed by 230 slices, having 512 x 512 pixels as spatial resolution, and 12-bit gray level resolution. In this initial feasible study, 5 healthy volunteer acquisitions has been used. Tests have been p…

A Graph-Based Method for PET Image Segmentation in Radiotherapy Planning: A Pilot Study

2013

Target volume delineation of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) images in radiation treatment planning is challenging because of the low spatial resolution and high noise level in PET data. The aim of this work is the devel- opment of an accurate and fast method for semi-automatic segmentation of me- tabolic regions on PET images. For this purpose, an algorithm for the biological tumor volume delineation based on random walks on graphs has been used. Va- lidation was first performed on phantoms containing spheres and irregular in- serts of different and known volumes, then tumors from a patient with head and neck cancer were segmented to discuss the clinical applicability of this algo- rith…

Ancora sulle "esplosive palatali" nelle inchieste dell'Atlante Linguistico del Mediterraneo (ALM): i punti albanesi

2021

Tra i «Problemi redazionali» emersi in fase di controllo e organizzazione dei materiali giunti dalla campagna di rilevamenti dell’Atlante Linguistico del Mediterraneo (ALM), Berruto (1971-1973) rileva la proliferazione e l’eterogeneità di alcune scelte grafemiche operate da diversi raccoglitori che, impegnati in una trascrizione più o meno puntuale delle risposte ottenute, avevano interpretato e risolto variamente alcune delle indicazioni previste nel sistema di trascrizione fonetica che accompagnava il Questionario. Particolarmente complesso era emerso il quadro relativo alla trascrizione di alcune consonanti del settore “palatale”, per le quali i grafemi (e i foni a essi corrispondenti) p…

Settore L-FIL-LET/12 - Linguistica ItalianaAmong the «Editorial problems» that emerged during the control and organization of the materials coming from the survey campaign of the Atlante Linguistico del Mediterraneo (ALM) Berruto (1971-1973) notes the proliferation and heterogeneity of some graphemic choices made by different field researchers. As they were engaged in a more or less punctual transcription of the answers obtained they had interpreted and solved differently some of the directions provided in the phonetic transcription system that accompanied the Questionnaire. The picture relating to the transcription of some consonants of the palatal sector had emerged as particularly complex since the graphemes (and the corresponding phones) foreseen in the original system (ALM 1959) were insufficient. Not even the 1971 updates meant to improve the representation of some phonetic features emerged from the investigations in the operations of Response reviewing allowed to obtain a clear homogeneous picture regarding the «plosive palatal» consonants. With regard to the phonetic trait under scrutiny I have already had the opportunity to propose a path aiming to the achievement of possible operational solutions. This has taken place in view of the planned simplification / homologation and transcoding phase from the ALM original system to the IPA one - while proceeding from the examination of the Schedoni’s current state with regard to the surveys referring to central-southern Italy Corsica and Sicily (see Matranga 2019). The scope is now to investigate the same phonetic trait as proven in the materials about the surveys carried out by Lirak Dodbiba in the ALM’s three Albanian points.

On Problems Driven by the (p(·) , q(·)) -Laplace Operator

2020

The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of at least one nontrivial weak solution for equations involving the (p(· ) , q(· ) ) -Laplace operator. The approach is variational and based on the critical point theory.

Sign-preserving solutions for a class of asymptotically linear systems of second-order ordinary differential equations

2022

We study multiplicity of solutions to an asymptotically linear Dirichlet problem associated with a planar system of second order ordinary differential equations. The existence of two sign-preserving component-wise solutions is guaranteed when the Morse indexes of the linearizations at zero and at infinity do not coincide, and one of the asymptotic problems has zero-index. The proof is developed in the framework of topological and shooting methods and it is based on a detailed analysis and characterization of the phase angles in a two-dimensional setting.

Existence of two positive solutions for anisotropic nonlinear elliptic equations

2021

This paper deals with the existence of nontrivial solutions for a class of nonlinear elliptic equations driven by an anisotropic Laplacian operator. In particular, the existence of two nontrivial solutions is obtained, adapting a two critical point results to a suitable functional framework that involves the anisotropic Sobolev spaces.

AbstractWe study the large-time behavior of solutions for the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$\begin{aligned} iu_t+\Delta u=\lambda |u|^p+\mu |\nabla u|^q+w(x),\quad t>0,\, x\in {\mathbb {R}}^N, \end{aligned}$$ i u t + Δ u = λ | u | p + μ | ∇ u | q + w ( x ) , t > 0 , x ∈ R N , where $$N\ge 1$$ N ≥ 1 , $$p,q>1$$ p , q > 1 , $$\lambda ,\mu \in {\mathbb {C}}$$ λ , μ ∈ C , $$\lambda \ne 0$$ λ ≠ 0 , and $$u(0,\cdot ), w\in L^1_{\mathrm{loc}}({\mathbb {R}}^N,{\mathbb {C}})$$ u ( 0 , · ) , w ∈ L loc 1 ( R N , C ) . We consider both the cases where $$\mu =0$$ μ = 0 and $$\mu \ne 0$$ μ ≠ 0 , respectively. We establish existence/nonexistence of global weak solutions. In ea…
