Unlike self-similarity based 2D texture editing approaches which only make changes to pixel color or inten- sity values, this technique also allows surface geometry and reflectance of the captured 3D surface textures to be edited and relit us- ing illumination conditions and viewing angles that differ from those of the original. A single editing operation at a given location affects all similar areas and produces changes on all images of the sample rendered under different conditions. Since surface height and albedo maps can be used to describe seabed topography and geologic features, which play important roles in many oceanic proc- esses, the proposed method can be effectively employed in applications regarding visualization and simulation of oceanic phenom- ena.展开更多

In the control group(n = 10) normal saline was applied. The MRI protocol contained T2 W, diffusion weighted imaging, pre-and post-contrast image series of T1 W and T1 mapping images. METAVIR score was used to grade liver fibrosis as normal(F0), mild fibrosis(F1–2), and advanced fibrosis(F3–4). Texture parameters including mean gray-level intensity(Mean), standard deviation(SD), Entropy, mean of positive pixels(MPP), Skewness, and Kurtosis were obtained. Nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the average value of each texture parameter in each sequence for assessing the difference between F0 and F≥1 as well as F0–2 and F3–4. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curves were obtained to assess the diagnosing accuracy of the parameters for differentiating no liver fibrosis from liver fibrosis and rats with liver fibrosis grading F0–2 from those with grading F3–4. The area under ROC curve(AUC) was calculated to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of texture parameters.Results Finally, 20 rats completed MR T1 mapping image scan. The pathologic staging of these 20 rats was no fibrosis(F0, n = 6), mild fibrosis(F1–2, n = 5) and advanced fibrosis(F3–4, n = 9). On pre-contrast T1 mapping image, Entropy was seen to be statistically significant higher in the F≥1 group than that in the F0 group at each spatial scaling factor(SSF) setting(P = 0.015, 0.015, 0.015, 0.013, 0.015 and 0.018 respectively to SSF = 0, 2, 3, 4,5, 6), and Mean of the F≥1 rats was statistically significant higher than that of the F0 rats at SSF 4, 5, 6(P = 0.004, 0.006, and 0.013, respectively). Entropy and Mean showed a moderate diagnostic performance in most SSF settings of T1 mapping pre-contrast images for differentiation of normal liver from liver fibrosis.Conclusion Certain texture features of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MR images, especially the Entropy of noncontrast T1 mapping image, was found to be a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis.展开更多

Though widely used in electrical engineering, its application in atmospheric sciences is still limited. This paper reviews some concepts of digital texture and statistical texture approach, applying them to a set of specific maps to analyze the correlation between texture measurements used in most papers. It is also proposed an improvement of the method by setting free a distance parameter and the use of a new texture measurement based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence. Eight statistical measurements were used: mean, contrast, standard deviation, cluster shade, cluster prominence, angular second moment, local homogeneity and Shannon entropy. The above statistical measurements were applied to simple maps and a set of rainfall fields measured with weather radar. The results indicate some high correlations, e.g. between the mean and the contrast or between the angular second moment, local homogeneity and the Shannon entropy, besides the potentiality of the method to discriminate maps.展开更多

In this paper is presented a new method of mapping planar texture pattern onto beta-spline curved surfaces——bilinear mapping method which can map planar texture pattern onto curved surfaces with less distortion, and also can fulfill the geometric transformation of the texture pattern on the curved surfaces by operating the pattern win- dow. It is valuable to both CAD/CAM in artistic field and computer graphics.
文摘In this paper a new method of texture pattern mapping onto free-form surfaces with less distortion and higher suitability is presented.This named CF Mapping Method is based on the Ap- proximate Development Principle and Equidistance Correspondence Rule.It is adaptable to various kinds of free-form surfaces with slight warping.Especially,by operating the pattern window ,dif- ferent artistic treatments——translation,rotation,reflection,sealing,etc.can be fulfilled.Undoubt- edly,it is very practical in the CAD/CAm of artistic scope.
