To analyze multimodal three-dimensional medical images, interpolation is required for resampling which—unavoidably—introduces an interpolation error. In this work we describe the interpolation method used for imaging and neuroimaging and we characterize the Gibbs effect occurring when using such methods. In the experimental section we consider three segmented three-dimensional images resampled with three different neuroimaging software tools for comparing undersampling and oversampling strategies and to identify where the oversampling error lies. The experimental results indicate that undersampling to the lowest image size is advantageous in terms of mean value per segment errors and that the oversampling error is larger where the gradient is steeper, showing a Gibbs effect.

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the major role and potential of three of the most powerful open source computerized tools for the advanced processing of medical images, in the study of neuroanatomy. DICOM images were acquired with radiodiagnostic equipment using 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance (MR) images. Images were further processed using the following applications: first, OsiriXTM version 4.0 32 bits for OS; Second, 3D Slicer version 4.3; and finally, MRIcron, version 6. Advanced neuroimaging processing requires two key features: segmentation and three-dimensional or volumetric reconstruction. Examples of identification and reconstruction of some of the most complex neuroimaging elements such vascular ones and tractographies are included in this paper. The three selected applications represent some of the most versatile technologies within the field of medical imaging.

It is an efficient way to represent three-dimensional objects by octree.The traditional structure of pointer -based octree representation has several shortcomings,such as requiring large memory,missing relationship between two nodes,etc.Based on analyzing the space Iayout and the configuration of octree,this paper presents an improved octree for 3D representation.From the experimental results for 3D reconstruction of medical images,we can see the proposed method is superior to the traditional method in terms of the storing structure and visiting way,etc.

It is difficult to carry out petrophysical experiments because of the serious damage caused to cores in the development of fractures and pores in carbonate reservoirs. The development of a three-dimensional digital core in carbonate reservoirs has become a hot topic in rock physics research. Compared with the three-dimensional digital core, including basic rock skeletons and pores in sandstone reservoirs, carbonate reservoirs also include secondary structures such as microfractures. The carbonate contains different components, and extracting these components is a very difficult problem. The resolution on the electrical image log image is high, which can clearly reflect the macrocomponents in various reservoirs. There are some blank areas between electrodes on the electrical image log, which affects the extraction of components in a three-dimensional digital core. Aiming at the serious heterogeneities in the carbonate reservoirs and affecting image inpainting on the electrical image log image, a new method of image inpainting based on a combination of multipoint geostatistics and an interpolation method is put forward. The experimental results show that this method generates faster and better full-bore images than other methods. Due to the multipeak histogram, the maximum interclass variance in the two times method is proposed to extract macrocomponents such as basic rock skeletons, pores, and connected parts. The microfractures can be extracted from the CT scanned images by using image segmentation from the combination of the watershed and OTSU methods. The experimental results prove that using extraction methods for different components enables better results to be obtained.

A new line-of-sight (LOS) decision algorithm applicable to simulation of electronic warfare (EW) is developed. For accurate simulation, the digital terrain elevation data (DTED) of the region to be analyzed must be reflected in the simulation, and millions of datasets are necessary in the EW environment. In order to obtain real-time results in such an environment, a technology that determines line-of-sight (LOS) quickly and accurately is very important. In this paper, a novel algorithm is introduced for determining LOS that can be applied in an EW environment with three-dimensional (3D) DTED. The proposed method shows superior performance as compared with the simplest point-to-point distance calculation method and it is also 50% faster than the conventional interpolation method. The DTED used in this paper is the data applied as level 0 for the Republic of Korea, and the decision of the LOS at approximately 1.8 million locations viewed by a reconnaissance plane flying 10 km above the ground is determined within 0.026 s.

The paper presents an intelligent approach for the comparison of social networks through a cone model by using the fuzzy k-medoids clustering method. It makes use of a geometrical three-dimensional conical model, which astutely represents the user experience views. It uses both the static as well as the dynamic parameters of social networks. In this, we propose an algorithm that investigates which social network is more fruitful. For the experimental results, the proposed work is employed on the data collected from students from different universities through the Google forms, where students are required to rate their experience of using different social networks on different scales.

Aiming at the color distortion of the restored image in the sky region, we propose an image dehazing algorithm based on double priors constraint. Firstly, we divided the haze image into sky and non-sky regions. Then the Color-lines prior and dark channel prior are used for estimating the transmission of sky and non-sky regions respectively. After introducing color-lines prior to correct sky regions restored by the dark channel prior, we get an accurate transmission. Finally, the local media mean value and standard deviation are used to refine the transmission to obtain the dehazing image. Experimental results show that the algorithm has obvious advantages in the recovery of the sky area.

3D rolling is a novel technology for three-dimensional surface parts. In this process, by controlling the gap between the upper and lower forming rolls, the sheet metal is non-uniformly thinned in thickness direction, and the longitudinal elongation of the sheet metal is different along the transverse direction, which makes the sheet metal generate three-dimensional deformation. In this paper, the transition zones of spherical surface parts in 3D rolling process are investigated. Spherical surface parts with the same widths but different lengths are simulated in condition of the same roll gap, and their experimental results are presented. The forming precision of forming parts and the causes of transition zones in the head and tail regions are analyzed through simulated results. The simulated and experimental results show that the lengths of transition zones of spherical surfaces in the head and tail regions are fixed values in condition of the same sheet width and roll gap.

This paper proposes a fast GrowCut (FGC) algorithm and applies the new algorithm in three-dimensional (3D)kidney segmentation from computed tomography (CT) volume data. Users could mark the object of interest with different labels in CT slices.FGC propagates the labels using monotonically decreasing function and color features to derive an optimal cut for a given data in space. The color features play a great role in comparing with neighborhood cells. The experimental results clearly demonstrate the superiority of FGC in accuracy and speed.
