Processing Digital Image for Measurement of Crack Dimensions in Concrete

The elements of the concrete structure are most frequently affected by cracking. Crack detection is essential to ensure safety and performance during its service life. Cracks do not have a regular shape, in order to achieve the exact dimensions of the crack; the general mathematical formulae are by no means applicable. The authors have proposed a new method which aims to measure the crack dimen...

New Mathematical Tools in Digital Signal Processing

In this note it is only possible to give a short description of affine wavelet theory and to indicate some reasons, why wavelet theory has attracted so much attention from the applied community recently. Besides a description of the basic ideas this note provides a guide to the relevant literature (published or presently submitted for publication) and some recent developments which are of inter...

Medical image processing tools for Blender with HPC support

We present a medical image processing plug-in in this paper. Our plug-in uses Blender’s environment and adds tools for the medical image processing and 3D model reconstructions and measurements. There are several software solutions to provide these tasks, two of which are used for comparison with our tool in this paper. However, there is not a single application that can perform medical image p...

Brain Volume Estimation Enhancement by Morphological Image Processing Tools

Background: Volume estimation of brain is important for many neurological applications. It is necessary in measuring brain growth and changes in brain in normal/abnormal patients. Thus, accurate brain volume measurement is very important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the method of choice for volume quantification due to excellent levels of image resolution and between-tissue contrast. St...
