Master Frame Extraction of Fetal Cardiac Images Using B Mode Ultrasound Images

Fetal Echocardiography is used for monitoring the fetal heart and for detection of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). It is well known that fetal cardiac four chamber view has been widely used for preliminary examination for the detection of CHD. The end diastole frame is generally used for the analysis of the fetal cardiac chambers which is manually picked by the clinician during examination/screening. This method is subjected to intra and inter observer errors and also time consuming. The proposed study aims to automate this process by determining the frame, referred to as the Master frame from the cine loop sequences that can be used for the analysis of the fetal heart chambers instead of the clinically chosen diastole frame. The proposed framework determines the correlation between the reference (first) frame with the successive frames to identify one cardiac cycle. Then the Master frame is formed by superimposing all the frames belonging to one cardiac cycle. The master frame is then compared with the clinically chosen diastole frame in terms of fidelity metrics such as Dice coefficient, Hausdorff distance, mean square error and structural similarity index. The average value of the fidelity metrics considering the dataset used for this study 0.73 for Dice, 13.94 for Hausdorff distance, 0.99 for Structural Similarity Index and 0.035 for mean square error confirms the suitability of the proposed master frame extraction thereby avoiding manual intervention by the clinician. .

Data Mining Algorithm for Moving Object Trajectory

Aiming at the poor effect and long recognition time of data mining algorithm for moving target trajectory recognition, a data mining algorithm based on improved Hausdorff distance is proposed. The position and angle of abnormal trajectory data are detected by calculating the distance between trajectory classification and sub trajectory line segments, and the trajectory unit is established by using the improved Hausdorff distance algorithm to optimize the similarity matching structure. Experimental results show that the algorithm has low error pruning rate in identifying moving target trajectory, improves the detection efficiency of moving target trajectory recognition data, and ensures the quality of moving target trajectory recognition data mining

VARIOUS KINDS OF MATRICES IN CYCLOTOMIC GRAPHS

The component matrix, Laplacian matrix, Distance matrix, Peripheral distance matrix, Distance Laplacian of the cyclotomic graphs and some properties are found. The D-energy, $D_{p}$-energy, $D^{L}$-energy and some indices of the cyclotomic graphs are determined. For the real symmetric matrices, matrices that attain the maximum $L, L_{s}$ and the minimum S are calculated. The Hausdorff distance and optimal matching distance of the cyclotomic graphs are evaluated.

An Invariant Three-polar Representation for R3 Surfaces: Robustness and Accuracy for 3D Faces Description

In this paper, we intend to introduce a new curved surface representation that we qualify by three-polar. It is constructed by the superposition of the three geodesic potentials generated from three reference points of the surface. By considering a pre-selected levels set of this superposition, invariant points are obtained. The accuracy of the three-polar representation for 3D human faces description is performed in the mean of the Hausdorff distance. A comparison between this representation and the one based on the level curves around the nose tip is established in the sense of the robustness under errors on the nose tip positions.
