An N-dimensional binary image XN is now defined as an The aim of this research is to provide insight in the N-dimensional bounded section of I R ~ , with the elements construction of the topology preserving conditions that are of XN having the values (0,1 See figure ,. necessary to constitute skeletons of objects in N dimensional binary images. However, if one wants to derive these conditions, ...

A common misconception exists among many scientists and engineers that a patent gives the owner the right to a particular technology. In fact, a patent does not guarantee the right to make or do anything. Instead, a patent gives the patent owner the right to exclude others from making, using, or selling anything that embodies the technology covered by the patent. When multiple organizations own...

The Text Encoding Initiative’s typed segment-boundary delimiter method is only one of several proposed mechanisms for handling overlap in TEI documents. HORSE (aka CLIX) defines a method by which an XML element is used normally when possible and as an improved version of the typed segment-boundary delimiter method when an overlap problem is encountered. A significant portion of the rules necess...

Our Jaboratory has since long heen associated with neuropharmaco· logical research. Among other methods, the one in which we have heen particulary keen is that of brain electrical activity recording. Looking hack to tbe work we bave performed in these years, l would like to present to you an account of the evolution of our techniques, showing how they bave changed along time (Table l). The firs...
