01 Nov 2011TL;DR: As a typical application of the LBP approach, LBP-based facial image analysis is extensively reviewed, while its successful extensions, which deal with various tasks of facial imageAnalysis, are also highlighted.
Abstract: Local binary pattern (LBP) is a nonparametric descriptor, which efficiently summarizes the local structures of images. In recent years, it has aroused increasing interest in many areas of image processing and computer vision and has shown its effectiveness in a number of applications, in particular for facial image analysis, including tasks as diverse as face detection, face recognition, facial expression analysis, and demographic classification. This paper presents a comprehensive survey of LBP methodology, including several more recent variations. As a typical application of the LBP approach, LBP-based facial image analysis is extensively reviewed, while its successful extensions, which deal with various tasks of facial image analysis, are also highlighted.

TL;DR: Among patients referred for their first x-ray coronary angiogram, three-dimensional coronary magnetic resonance angiography allows for the accurate detection of coronary artery disease of the proximal and middle segments.
Abstract: Background An accurate, noninvasive technique for the diagnosis of coronary disease would be an important advance. We investigated the accuracy of coronary magnetic resonance angiography among patients with suspected coronary disease in a prospective, multicenter study. Methods Coronary magnetic resonance angiography was performed during free breathing in 109 patients before elective x-ray coronary angiography, and the results of the two diagnostic procedures were compared. Results A total of 636 of 759 proximal and middle segments of coronary arteries (84 percent) were interpretable on magnetic resonance angiography. In these segments, 78 (83 percent) of 94 clinically significant lesions (those with a ≥50 percent reduction in diameter on x-ray angiography) were also detected by magnetic resonance angiography. Overall, coronary magnetic resonance angiography had an accuracy of 72 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 63 to 81 percent) in diagnosing coronary artery disease. The sensitivity, specificity,...

TL;DR: In this article, a general formalism is developed by means of which the radiative heat transfer between macroscopic bodies of arbitrary dispersive and absorptive dielectric properties can be evaluated.
Abstract: A general formalism is developed by means of which the radiative heat transfer between macroscopic bodies of arbitrary dispersive and absorptive dielectric properties can be evaluated. The general formalism is applied to the heat transfer across a vacuum gap between two identical semi-infinite bodies at different temperatures. The peculiarities arising when the gap width is of the order of, or smaller than, the dominant thermal radiation wavelengths are studied and quantitatively evaluated for the case of two metal bodies. The predicted strong increase with diminishing gap width is in qualitative agreement with experimental results.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed recent progress in the understanding of insulator/semiconductor interfaces in organic field effect transistors (OFETs) and emphasized that the choice of gate insulator is as important for high-quality OFET devices as the semiconductor itself, especially because of the unique transport mechanisms operating in them.
Abstract: In this paper, we review recent progress in the understanding of insulator/semiconductor interfaces in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). We would like to emphasize that the choice of gate insulator is as important for high-quality OFET devices as the semiconductor itself, especially because of the unique transport mechanisms operating in them. To date researchers have explored numerous organic and inorganic insulator materials, some of them designed to improve the morphology of the organic semiconductor (OSC). Surface treatments, particularly on inorganic insulators, have been shown to influence significantly molecular ordering and device performance. In addition, the deposition technique used for the insulator and semiconductor layers has a further impact on the active interface. Dielectric related effects are reviewed here for a variety of polymeric and molecular semiconductors reported in the literature, with an emphasis on electronic transport. We also review in more detail experiences at Phil...

05 Dec 2005TL;DR: The IEEE 802.22 WG is chartered with the development of a CR-based wireless regional area network (WRAN) physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers for use by license-exempt devices in the spectrum that is currently allocated to the television (TV) service.
Abstract: In November/2004, we witnessed the formation of the first worldwide effort to define a novel wireless air interface standard based on cognitive radios (CRs): the IEEE 802.22 working group (WG). The IEEE 802.22 WG is chartered with the development of a CR-based wireless regional area network (WRAN) physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers for use by license-exempt devices in the spectrum that is currently allocated to the television (TV) service. Since 802.22 is required to reuse the fallow TV spectrum without causing any harmful interference to incumbents (i.e., the TV receivers), cognitive radio techniques are of primary importance in order to sense and measure the spectrum and detect the presence/absence of incumbent signals. On top of that, other advanced techniques that facilitate coexistence such as dynamic spectrum management and radio environment characterization could be designed. In this paper, we provide a detailed overview of the 802.22 architecture, its requirements, applications, and coexistence considerations that not only form the basis for the definition of this groundbreaking wireless air interface standard, but that will also serve as foundation for future research in the promising area of CRs
