There is provided a method for quantitatively evaluating properties of a graphite structure of a gray cast iron based on a number and a thick and thin degree of graphite components in the structure. In particular, only non-spherical graphite pieces having an average size of 5 mum or more are extracted from a preprocessed image of the graphite structure, and counted (Step S5 of FIG. 3). Further, on...

A new human interface scheme compresses geographical information, latitudes and longitudes, into a 10 symbols of 36 radices number systems which are based on 36s. It is to simplify the conventional representation of the latitudes and longitudes into much easier to be remembered and accessed by human beings, 10 symbols of 36 radices numbers, "Universal Geo Numbers". The 5 symbols here can give the ...

A method of segmenting chromatin particles in a nucleus of a cell by locating regional minima in an image, computing a zone of influence (ZOI) around each regional minimum, and segmenting a single chromatin blob within each ZOI using a region growing procedure. The method can be used as the basis of a method of qualitatively characterizing the distribution of nuclear chromatin by computing feature...
