TL;DR: The Karhunter-Loeve transform for a class of signals is proven to be a set of periodic sine functions and this Karhunen- Loeve series expansion can be obtained via an FFT algorithm, which could be useful in data compression and other mean-square signal processing applications.

TL;DR: Two computer graphics systems for the presentation of biomedical information for diagnosis and treatment planning are described and one system is a radiation treatment planning aid which uses tomographic data in its computations.

TL;DR: The general goal of image pattern recognition is to generate descriptions of images, and relate those descriptions to models characterizing classes of images as discussed by the authors, which is a technique-oriented viewpoint.

TL;DR: Two computer graphics systems for the presentation of biomedical information for diagnosis and treatment planning are described and both utilize computer tomographic (CT) data as inp...

TL;DR: Three standard approaches to automatic texture classification make use of features based on the Fourier power spectrum, on second-order gray level statistics, and on first-order statistics of gray level differences, respectively; it was found that the Fouriers generally performed more poorly, while the other feature sets all performned comparably.

TL;DR: This paper formulates the ambiguity-reduction process in terms of iterated parallel operations (i.e., relaxation operations) performed on an array of object, identification data.

TL;DR: In this paper, three standard approaches to automatic texture classification make use of features based on the Fourier power spectrum, on second-order gray level statistics, and on first-order statistics of gray level differences, respectively.

TL;DR: Extensions of this algorithm in the areas of texture simulation and lighting models are described, including extensions of the parametrization of a patch which defines a coordinate system which is used as a key for mapping patterns onto the surface.
