A computer software system is designed for the automatic discrimination of benign tumor from malignant tumor in brain CT examinations. Image analysis methods were applied to the images of 40 benign images and 40 malignant images. Textural features extracted from the gray level co-occurrence matrix of the tumor images and back propagation neural network classifier were employed for the design of...

An approach to the creation of musical material, coined here as “textural composition,” addresses aesthetic consequences of real-time stochastic sound mass composition. Musical texture as source material exists between sound-object (singular) and sound-objects (plural), inducing an aesthetic of the intermediary. Since sound diffusion is inextricably linked to composition, spatialization require...

Motion estimation is a key problem in the analysis of image sequences. From a sequence of images we can only estimate an approximation of the image motion field called optical flow. We propose to improve optical flow estimation by including information from images of textural features. We compute the optical flow from intensity and textural images from first-order derivatives, then combine esti...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of red and green glasswort on the physicochemical and textural properties of reduced-salt cooked sausages. The control was formulated with 1.5% NaCl; then, three reduced-salt treatments were prepared, with 0.75% NaCl (RS), 0.75% NaCl+1.0% red glasswort (RSR) and 0.75% NaCl+1.0% green glasswort (RSG), respectively. The addition of glasswort withi...
