Transform approximations are explored for speeding up the software compression of images and video. Approximations are used to replace the regular discrete cosine transform (DCT) whenever only a few DCT coefficients are actually encoded. We employ a novel hierarchical vector quantization (HVQ)-based image analyzer to drive a bank of coders, thus switching to the fastest coder depending on the i...

A sensitive, rapid, and simple method is presented for the simultaneous quantitation of the major phospholipids and neutral lipids using an image analyzer after separation by one-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. A clear-cut separation of the lipids was achieved on one EDTA-impregnated chromatoplate with five step-wise developments. An image was acquired, and the integrated optical densiti...

The electron optics of a 90 degree spherical deflecting analyzer (SDA-90) is investigated with an imaging matrix formalism. As a preanalyzer in the UTAneutrino experiment, high transmission and reasonable energy resolution are the choices of optimization. The magnification of the source through the analyzer plays the key role in determining the energy resolution. The imaging matrix approach pro...

A digital receiver based tune measurement system is implemented recently. Novel digital receiver plays a central role for tune measurement. The output of digital receiver is further Fourier analysis by digital signal processor. Design considerations of this tune monitor such as, speed, resolution, dynamic range, control interface will discuss in this report. Comparing with traditional spectrum ...

Tomato Analyzer measures morphological and color attributes via image analysis in an objective, highthroughput, and semiautomatic manner. This software allows for reproducible quantification of phenotypic data that previously were done by hand or visual analysis. The new version has improved the accuracy of all measurements and reduced the need to make timeconsuming manual adjustments. In this ...

The aim of urine clinical examination is to identify the pathology components and diagnose diseases of the urology system. It is necessary to realize automatization in the field of microscopic analyzer of urine solution. Detecting particles in the microscopic image is much more difficult because the particles has irregular shape and blur edge. This paper briefly discusses image segmentation and...
