Bu çalışmada amacım Spinoza’nın geometrik yönteminin Descartes’a dayanan kökenlerini göstermeye çalışmaktır. Descartes aritmetik ve geometriye evrensel bir bilim (mathesis universalis) kurmak istemiştir. Onun bu konudaki fikirleri kendi yöntem anlayışında da belirleyicidir. Descartes’ın mathesis universalis düşüncesi anlayışı anlayışının şekillenmesinde doğrudan etkili olmuştur. Çalışmamda nası...

This paper details the development of a novel method for automatic segmentation of collapsed colon lumen based on a prior knowledge of colon geometrical features and anatomical structure. After the removal of surrounding air voxels and lungs from the volumetric Computed Tomography(CT) data, labelling was performed to detect the remaining air voxel regions inside the CT data. Volume by length an...

Automatic analysis of tongue movement in large existing cineradiographic databases can provide valuable information to understood speech production. We describe here a method for semi-automatic extraction of articulatory information from video observation in order to derive quasi-automatically a geometrical parameterization of the vocal tract movements. The algorithm starts with a limited manua...

Presence of joints and fractures in rocks strongly influences the behavior of the rock mass by dividing the media into smaller units. These structures intensify the potential instability besides the development of sliding and rotational movements. The assumption of discontinuum media changes the whole analysis conditions in relation to the continuum analysis. Acquisition of geometrical and stru...
