One of the important steps in gradient-based edge detection is thresholding, e.g., hysteresis thresholding in the Canny detector. Traditional approaches use gradient magnitude as ...
Automatic thresholding has been widely used in the machine vision industry for automated visual inspection of defects. A commonly used thresholding technique, the Otsu method, pro...
Methods for automatic detection of left ventricular endocardium in echocardiograms are required to quantitatively evaluate the functional performance of the left ventricle. This s...
This paper presents an efficient method for automatic detection and extraction of blood vessels in retinal images. Specifically, we also delineate vascular intersections/crossov...
The timely detection that a monitored variable has crossed a given threshold is a fundamental requirement for many network management applications. A challenge is the detection of ...
