New clinical studies suggest that narrowing of the retinal blood vessels may be an early indicator of cardiovascular diseases. One measure to quantify the severity of retinal arteriolar narrowing is the arteriolar-to-venular diameter ratio (AVR). The manual computation of AVR is a tedious process involving repeated measurements of the diameters of all arterioles and venules in the retinal images by human graders. Consistency and reproducibility are concerns. To facilitate large-scale clinical use in the general population, it is essential to have a precise, efficient and automatic system to compute this AVR. This paper describes a new approach to obtain AVR. The starting points of vessels are detected using a matched Gaussian filter. The detected vessels are traced with the help of a combined Kalman filter and Gaussian filter. A modified Gaussian model that takes into account the central light reflection of arterioles is proposed to describe the vessel profile. The width of a vessel is obtained by data fitting. Experimental results indicate a 97.1% success rate in the identification of vessel starting points, and a 99.2% success rate in the tracking of retinal vessels. The accuracy of the AVR computation is well within the acceptable range of deviation among the human graders, with a mean relative AVR error of 4.4%. The system has interested clinical research groups worldwide and will be tested in clinical studies. 相似文献

To solve the problems with coronary stent implantation, coronary artery stent surface was directly modified by three-beam laser interference lithography through imitating the water-repellent surface of lotus leaf, and uniform micro-nano structures with the controllable period were fabricated. The morphological properties and contact angle (CA) of the microstructure were measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and CA system. The water repellency of stent was also evaluated by the contact and then separation between the water drop and the stent. The results show that the close-packed concave structure with the period of about 12 μm can be fabricated on the stent surface with special parameters (incident angle of 3°, laser energy density of 2.2 J?cm-2 and exposure time of 80 s) by using the three-beam laser at 1 064 nm, and the structure has good water repellency with CA of 120°. 相似文献

It is commonly believed that the time-varying frequency characteristics are important for the inelastic response of structures. Design code modification means structural cost changes; therefore any change must be based on solid evidence. Although the significance of time-varying frequency characteristics to ground motion has been recognized for a while, much more in-depth research is necessary before any meaningful engineering design conclusions can be reached. We apply joint time-frequency analysis techniques to a fully non-stationary ground motion model, with both intensity and frequency being non-stationary. The chirplet-based signal approximation is used to extract the time-varying frequencies from seismic ground-motion data samples. Based on that information, we compute the frequency-dependent modulating function in the stochastic model of the evolutionary random process. We generate and compare the artificial waves based on stochastic models of a uniform modulating random process and an evolutionary random process, separately. We also investigate the importance of the time-varying frequency characteristics of earthquake ground motion through an oscillator, with a single degree of freedom and elastic-plastic material behavior 相似文献

Typically, the plasma charging effect is investigated by using antenna test structures that do not replicate well enough conditions occurring in real VLSI integrated circuits (ICs). Consequently, understanding, modeling, and detection of plasma-charging-induced gate oxide damage in real IC's is often inadequate. This paper discusses a new plasma-charging monitoring technique that assesses the extent of the above problem. This technique employs a multiplexed antenna monitoring (MAM) test structure with 400+ antenna configurations to determine the dependency between IC layout and the extent of gate oxide damage. The paper reports the results of application of this technique to a 0.35-μm, 75-Å gate oxide, CMOS technology. The obtained results lead to a new definition of “antenna ratio” that is supposed to capture plasma-charging conditions in real VLSI circuits 相似文献

The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a VHF communication system that provides identification/location information to vessels and shore stations by exchanging data such as position, identification, course, speed, etc. Recently, the interest in detecting and tracking ships at distances from coastlines larger than what can be accomplished by normal terrestrial VHF communications has grown, driven by requirements of long‐range applications such as better handling of hazardous cargo, improved security and countering illegal operations. This paper presents an extension of AIS to a long‐range positioning reporting through a constellation of LEO satellites. It outlines technical challenges like the high rate of message collisions from ships in the field of view of a satellite. Technical solutions are proposed at system and sub‐system level to address these challenges. A computer‐based system simulator is used to assess the system performance and carry out a high‐level system sizing. Results show that a relatively small constellation of LEO satellites can guarantee good ship position detection probability as well as a reporting time interval of a few hours. System performance aspects to be addressed in future work are the possible impact of terrestrial mobile communications interference as well as variations of the estimated traffic data.

Space-time block codes based on coordinate symmetric orthogonal designs are proposed. Compared with space-time block codes from complex orthogonal design when the code rate is the same and the transmission rate is fixed, space-time block codes from coordinate symmetric orthogonal design with more transmit antennas can reduce the bit error rate and symbol error rate. Also these new codes have the same low decoding complexity as space-time block codes from complex orthogonal designs. 相似文献

The principles of operation and several types of surface acoustic wave devices are reviewed. One device, the interdigital transducer device, can accomplish matched filtering for complex bandwidth-efficient phase modulations. Data speeds in excess of 120 Mb/s are accomplished with existing thin film lithography. Filters are cheap and small, and show little mismatch to the desired response. A number of receiver designs are proposed that are based on these filters. A bank-of-matched-filters approach seems superior to the Viterbi algorithm at high speeds. 相似文献

This correspondence presents a method for constructing structured regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes based on a special type of combinatoric designs, known as balance incomplete block designs. Codes constructed by this method have girths at least 6 and they perform well with iterative decoding. Furthermore, several classes of these codes are quasi-cyclic and hence their encoding can be implemented with simple feedback shift registers. 相似文献

Aiming to solve the misclassification problems of unsupervised polarimetric Wishart classification algorithm based on Freeman decomposition, an unsupervised Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Interferomery (PolInSAR) classification algorithm based on optimal coherence set parameters is studied and proposed. This algorithm uses the result of Freeman decomposition to divide the image into three basic categories including surface scattering, volume scattering, and double-bounce. Then, the PolInSAR optimal coherence set parameters are used to finely divide each of the three basic categories into 9 categories, and the whole image is divided into 27 categories. Because both the Freeman decomposition result and optimal coherence set parameters indicate specific scattering characteristics, the whole image is merged into 16 categories based on physical meaning. At last, the Wishart cluster is employed to obtain the final classification result. To preserve the purity of scattering characteristics, pixels with similar scattering characteristics are restricted to be classified with other pixels. The final classification results effectively resolve the misclassification problem, not only the buildings can be effectively distinguished from vegetation in urban areas, but also the road is well distinguished from grass. In this paper, the E-SAR PolInSAR data of German Aerospace Center (DLR), are used to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm. 相似文献
