Effective knowledge and awareness of customers require the market segmentation, through which the customers who have the same needs and purchasing patterns as well as the same response to marketing plans are identified. The selection of a proper variable is a requirement, among other, for a successful market segmentation. In today' world, on one hand, the consumers are bombarded with new goods ...

Introduction: Segmentation of brain images especially from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential requirement in medical imaging since the tissues, edges, and boundaries between them are ambiguous and difficult to detect, due to the proximity of the brightness levels of the images. Material and Methods: In this paper, the graph-base...

Image segmentation is an essential issue in image description and classification. Currently, in many real applications, segmentation is still mainly manual or strongly supervised by a human expert, which makes it irreproducible and deteriorating. Moreover, there are many uncertainties and vagueness in images, which crisp clustering and even Type-1 fuzzy clustering could not handle. Hence, Type-...

In analyzing a signal, especially a non-stationary signal, it is often necessary the desired signal to be segmented into small epochs. Segmentation can be performed by splitting the signal at time instances where signal amplitude or frequency change. In this paper, the signal is initially decomposed into signals with different frequency bands using wavelet transform. Then, fractal dimension of ...

Data mining is a powerful tool for firms to extract knowledge from their customers’ transaction data. One of the useful applications of data mining is segmentation. Segmentation is an effective tool for managers to make right marketing strategies for right customer segments. In this study we have segmented retailers of a hygienic manufacture. Nowadays all manufactures do understand that for st...

introduction the morphologic features of human sperms are key indicators for monitoring fertility problems in men. therefore, automated analyzing methods via microscopic videos have become the most favorite policy in infertility treatment during the last decades. materials and methods in the proposed method, firstly a hypothesis testing framework was defined to distinguish sperms from backgroun...

Background: The grading evaluation of atlas based auto-segmentation (ABAS) of organs at risk (OARs) in thorax was studied. Materials and Methods: Forty patients with thoracic cancer were included in this study, and for each thirteen thoracic OARs were delineated by an experienced radiation oncologist. The patients were randomly grouped into the training and the test dataset (20 each). The inves...
