Fractal triangular search: a metaheuristic for image content search
Erick O. Rodrigues, Panos Liatsis, Luiz Satoru +1
This work proposes a variable neighbourhood search (FTS) that uses a fractal-based local search primarily designed for images. Searching for specific content in images is posed as…
Local-sensitive connectivity filter (ls-cf): A post-processing unsupervised improvement of the frangi, hessian and vesselness filters for multimodal vessel segmentation
Erick O Rodrigues, Lucas O Rodrigues, João HP Machado +5
A retinal vessel analysis is a procedure that can be used as an assessment of risks to the eye. This work proposes an unsupervised multimodal approach that improves the response of…
Comparing Results of Thermographic Images Based Diagnosis for Breast Diseases
E. O. Rodrigues, A. Conci, T. B. Borchartt +3
This paper examines the potential contribution of infrared (IR) imaging in breast diseases detection. It compares obtained results using some algorithms for detection of malignant…
Automated recognition of the pericardium contour on processed CT images using genetic algorithms
E. O. Rodrigues, L. O. Rodrigues, L. S. N. Oliveira +2
This work proposes the use of Genetic Algorithms (GA) in tracing and recognizing the pericardium contour of the human heart using Computed Tomography (CT) images. We assume that ea…
On the Automated Segmentation of Epicardial and Mediastinal Cardiac Adipose Tissues Using Classification Algorithms
Érick Oliveira Rodrigues, Felipe Fernandes Cordeiro de Morais, Aura Conci
The quantification of fat depots on the surroundings of the heart is an accurate procedure for evaluating health risk factors correlated with several diseases. However, this type o…
A novel approach for the automated segmentation and volume quantification of cardiac fats on computed tomography
Érick Oliveira Rodrigues, FFC Morais, NAOS Morais +3
The deposits of fat on the surroundings of the heart are correlated to several health risk factors such as atherosclerosis, carotid stiffness, coronary artery calcification, atrial…
