FACIAL EDEMA EVALUATION USING DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

Facial Edema Evaluation Using Digital Image Processing

The main objective of the facial edema evaluation is providing the needed information to determine the effectiveness of the anti-inflammatory drugs in development.This paper presents a system that measures the four main variables present in facial edemas: trismus, blush (coloration), temperature, and inflammation.Measurements are obtained by using

Extreme Learning Machine Approach to Modeling the Superconducting Critical Temperature of Doped MgB2 Superconductor

Magnesium diboride (MgB2) superconductor combines many unique features such as transparency of its grain boundaries to super-current flow, large coherence length, absence of weak links and small anisotropy.Doping is one of the mechanisms for enhancing these features, as well as the superconducting critical temperature, of the compound.During the pr
