According to the fundamentals of image-based visual servoing(IBVS), the cerebellar model articulation controller (CMAC) neural network is inserted into thevisual servo control loop to implement the nonlinear mapping from the error signal in the imagespace to the control signal in the input space instead of the iterative adjustment and complicatedinverse solution of the image Jacobian. Simulation results show that the feature point can bepredicted efficiently using the Kalman filter and on-line supervised learning can be realized usingCMAC neural network; end-effector can track the target object very well.展开更多

Firstly, 2D Gaussian matched filter was used to enhance the retinal images and simplified PCNN was employed to segment the blood vessels by firing neighborhood neurons. Then, fast 2D-Otsu algorithm was introduced to search the best segmentation results and iteration times with less computation time. Finally, the whole vessel network was obtained via analyzing the regional connectivity. Experiments implemented on the public Hoover database indicate that this new method gets a 0.803 5 true positive rate and a 0.028 0 false positive rate on an average. According to the test results, compared with Hoover algorithm and method of PCNN and 1D-Otsu, the proposed method shows much better performance.展开更多

One theorem provides parameter inequalities for determining parameter intervals for implementing prescribed image processing functions, respectively.

Methods Experimental glaucoma was induced unilaterally in 28 male Sprague-Dawley rats by ligating two episcleral veins. Intraocular pressure (10P) in rats was measured by a Goldmann applanation tonometer under 3 % pentobarbital sodium anesthesia. The optic nerve head and retinal vasculature were assessed by repeated fundus examinations. The amount of optic nerve axons was assessed by Image-Pro Plus image analysis system in a masked fashion. Results lOP without EVL was ( 19.21 ± 1.23) mmHg, whereas the EVL eyes gained about 1.8-fold higher 10P[ (33.96 ±2. 73) mmHg]after EVL immediately ( P 〈 0. 001 ). The elevated IOP gradually decreased over time. However, the differences were kept significant up to 8 weeks after EVL. The lOP was reduced to similar levels as contralateral eyes at 12 and 16 weeks after EVL. The glaucomatous optic nerve excavation appeared in EVL eyes at 8 weeks after EVL, and the optic nerve excavation enlarged gradually with the increasing post-operation time. The amount of optic nerve axons also significantly decreased in EVL eyes at 8 weeks after EVL, and the amount of axons decreased gradually with the increasing post-operation time. Conclusion Increase of lOP caused by EVL represents a useful and efficient model of experimental glaucoma in rats.展开更多
