  2. 1. Geometric Discretization in Shape analysis

    Author : Erik Jansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; compressible fluids; diffeomorphisms; residual neural networks; quantization; machine learning; Shape analysis;

    Abstract : Discretizations in shape analysis is the main theme of this licentiate thesis, which comprises two papers.  The first paper considers  the problem of finding a parameterized time-dependent vector field that warps an initial set of points to a target set of points. READ MORE

  4. 2. Lip-motion and speech biometrics in person recognition

    Author : Maycel Isaac Faraj; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Audio-visual recognition; biometrics; Biometric recognition; Speaker verification; Speaker authentication; Person identification; Lip movements; Motion; Structure tensor; Orientation; Optical flow; Hidden Markov Model; Gaussian Markov Model; Lip-motion; Image analysis; Bildanalys;

    Abstract : Biometric identification techniques are frequently used to improve security, e.g. in financial transactions, computer networks and secure critical locations. The purpose of biometric authentication systems is to verify an individual by her biological characteristics including those generating characterisitic behaviour. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Symbolic Approach to Human Motion Analysis Using Inertial Sensors : Framework and Gait Analysis Study

    Author : Anita Sant'Anna; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Nicholas Wickström; Kamiar Aminian; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; symbolization; expert knowledge; gait analysis; inertial sensors;

    Abstract : Motion analysis deals with determining what and how activities are being performed by a subject, through the use of sensors. The process of answering the what question is commonly known as classification, and answering the how question is here referred to as characterization. READ MORE

  6. 4. Annular Motion : Assessment of Cardiac Function using Echocardiography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Author : Lena Lindström; Otto Smiseth; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : This thesis concentrates on the assessment of cardiac function, both systolic and diastolic using variables originating from the longitudinal motion of the heart using both established and novel non-invasive imaging techniques. We developed a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that creates an M-mode MRI image, analogous to the one used in echocardiography and enables quantitative assessment of cardiac motion.

  7. 5. Multidimensional MRI of Cardiac Motion : Acquisition, Reconstruction and Visualization

    Author : Andreas Sigfridsson; Hans Knutsson; Stefan Skare; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MRI; cardiac; motion; reconstruction; Image analysis; Bildanalys;

    Abstract : Methods for measuring deformation and motion of the human heart in-vivo are crucial in the assessment of cardiac function. Applications ranging from basic physiological research, through early detection of disease to follow-up studies, all benefit from improved methods of measuring the dynamics of the heart. READ MORE
