ROI Extraction in Thermographic Breast Images Using Genetic Algorithms
LC Mendes, EO Rodrigues, Sandro C Izidoro +2
This work proposes the use of Genetic Algorithms (GA) to identify the area of the breast from the background in thermographic breast images. The proposed method uses color informat…
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…
ELEMENT: Multi-Modal Retinal Vessel Segmentation Based on a Coupled Region Growing and Machine Learning Approach
Erick O. Rodrigues, Aura Conci, Panos Liatsis
Vascular structures in the retina contain important information for the detection and analysis of ocular diseases, including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy…
Proposal and study of statistical features for string similarity computation and classification
E. O. Rodrigues, D. Casanova, M. Teixeira +5
Adaptations of features commonly applied in the field of visual computing, co-occurrence matrix (COM) and run-length matrix (RLM), are proposed for the similarity computation of st…
