20120093381METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR BRAIN TUMOR SEGMENTATION IN MULTI-PARAMETER 3D MR IMAGES VIA ROBUST STATISTIC INFORMATION PROPAGATION - A method for brain tumor segmentation in multi-parametric 3D MR images. The method comprises: pre-processing an input multi-parametric 3D MR image; classifying each voxel in the pre-processed multi-parametric 3D MR image, determining the probability that the voxel is part of a brain tumor, and obtaining an initial label information for the image segmentation based on the classification probability; constructing a graph based representation for the pre-processed image to be segmented; and generating the segmented brain tumor image using the initial label information and graph based representation. This method tries to exploit the local and global consistency of the image to be segmented for the tumor segmentation and can alleviate partially the performance degradation caused by the inter-subject image variability and insufficient statistical information from training.04-19-2012

20100327754ADAPTIVE MODULATION AND DATA EMBEDDING IN LIGHT FOR ADVANCED LIGHTING CONTROL - This invention relates to a method for controlling a light output signal emitted by a set of light sources comprising at least one light source, wherein said light output signal comprises a modulation signal which carries individual information, the method comprising recurrently: remotely detecting the light output signal of said set of light sources; determining at least one quality measure of said remote detection of the light output signal; and adjusting the modulation signal on basis of said at least one quality measure.12-30-2010
20110022342DISTRIBUTED SPECTRUM SENSING - In summary, the invention relates to a device, a system, a method and a computer program for spectrum sensing. A detection procedure for detecting a signal of interest or an event by using a plurality of sensing devices capable of communicating with a central unit is proposed. The sensing devices can compute soft detection metrics and communicate this information to a central unit, where the information may be used to make a final detection decision using a certain specified rule. The signaling overhead of the proposed approach can be of the same order as that of a hard signaling approach. However, the proposed approach may achieve a better detection performance.01-27-2011
