Journal ArticleDOI
A Speech Prosthesis Employing a Speech Synthesizer-Vowel Discrimination from Perioral Muscle Activities and Vowel Production
Noboru Sugie,Koichi Tsunoda +1 more
TL;DR: A speech prosthesis has been developed based on the following idea: when a handicapped person such as a laryngectomee tries to speak in vain, the movements of the mouth, tongue, etc., are elicited and what he or she is trying to say can be determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural models of brightness perception and retinal rivalry in binocular vision
TL;DR: A neural network model, which consists of a pair of neurons receiving inputs with stochastic fluctuations, is proposed for binocular fusion, where pairs of left and right stimuli yielding the same brightness perception constitute an equibrightness curve in a coordinate system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure recognition methods for various types of documents
TL;DR: Experimental methods of recognizing the document structures of various types of documents in the framework of document understanding are described and are effective under the knowledge-based frame-work and are integrated complementarily from the top-down (model-driven) and bottom-up (data- driven) approaches.
Journal Article
Neural Filter with Selection of Input Features and Its Application to Image Quality Improvement of Medical Image Sequences
TL;DR: The experimental results demonstrated that the performance on edge-preserving smoothing of the NFF, obtained by the proposed framework, is superior to that of the conventional neural and dynamic filters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery of rigid structure from orthographically projected optical flow
Kokichi Sugihara,Noboru Sugie +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the retinal velocity field generated by orthographic projection of a moving rigid object is studied and it is shown that, given a velocity field at one moment, the possible interpretation of motion and structure admits three degrees of freedom; two of them are due to freedom in choice of the position and the velocity of the object in the view direction, and the other is due to choice of thickness of an object.
