Nailfold capillaroscopy (NC) is a non-invasive imaging technique employed to assess the condition of blood capillaries in the nailfold, and is routinely used for the detection of scleroderma spectral disorders, Raynaud’s phenomenon and other connective tissue diseases. In this chapter, we present computer-aided approaches for capillary inspection, in particular focussing on the tasks of image e...

As computer CPU gets fast, script computing is increasingly popular. Script computing allows a computer program to be executed interpretively without tedious compilation and linking. It can be used for rapid prototyping, embedded scripting, mobile computing, teaching, and learning. Ch is an embeddedable C/C++ interpreter. It execute C/C++ programs as scripts interpretively without compilation. ...

Authors LINEARISE the music score in Midi or MusicXml format to obtain individual voices; TRANSFORM subsequent note pairs to characters from the alphabet describing pitch difference and rhythmical ratio; GENERATE all string suffixes and put them into a suffix tree; EVALUATE all samples based on their length, frequency in the score and melodical/rhythmical diversity based on normalized entropy b...

Operative treatment of displaced and comminuted radial head fractures involves internal fixation with plates and screws in cases where reconstruction is possible and replacement with a radial head prosthesis when comminution renders the radial head unreconstructable. The purposes of this study were to evaluate the morphometry of the radial head using a modern technique and to compare the findin...

Biosensors with animal and microbial cells immobilized close to the tip of a membrane electrode have been developed for chemical and drug testing. Our experimental results show that biosensors can be used for drug screening and to provide useful information about various cell-chemical interactions. A computer aided analysis (CAA) software package is being developed here using the biosensor for ...
