using the analytic-historical method, this article attempts to explain the cultural policies of the first shah of the pahlavi dynasty toward women. relying on the theory of evolution and formation of national identity in iran, the article seeks to answer this question: ‘what is the impact of the cultural policies of the first shah of the pahlavi dynasty on the occurrence of identity crisis amon...

Shah et al have recently reported the first successful sequencing of the entire genome of a solid tumour (Shah et al, 2009). Philippe Bedard and Christos Sotiriou analyse their findings as well as the challenges of applying the study of cancer genomes to clinical cancer care.

In this work, we first address the problem of simultaneous image segmentation and smoothing by approaching the Mumford-Shah paradigm from a curve evolution perspective. In particular, we let a set of deformable contours define the boundaries between regions in an image where we model the data via piecewise smooth functions and employ a gradient flow to evolve these contours. Each gradient step ...

according adhar bigdili, muhammad ali was son of abdal biq naqqashbashi (painter laureate)and grandson of aliquli biq jabadar, court painter of shah safi and shah abbas ii safawi. adhar bigdili credited muhammad ali with naqqashbashi of shah tahmasp ii safawi and nadir shah afshar. having learnt the art of painting from his father, muhamma ali in turn trained ali ashraf, who worked under patron...

We present results from a study where we segment fish in images captured within fish cages. The ultimate goal is to use this information to extract the weight distribution of the fish within the cages. Statistical shape knowledge is added to a Mumford-Shah functional defining the image energy. The fish shape is represented explicitly by a polygonal curve, and the energy minimization is done by ...

Tracking is usually interpreted as finding an object in single consecutive frames. Regularization is done by enforcing temporal smoothness of appearance, shape and motion. We propose a tracker, by interpreting the task of tracking as segmentation of a volume in 3D. Inherently temporal and spatial regularization is unified in a single regularization term. Segmentation is done by a variational ap...
