Hello,

I would like to get a image of the often used head-phantom.
This is the graylevel-picture of many ellipses.

Does anybody know a anonymous-ftp-server with a image-file
of any kind of format on it? Or does anybody have such a
file?

Please mail or post!

Thanks in advance

Or has anyone used any product that does form registartion,

Hi, there,

Could you please give me a pointer to some image database?
The data I wanted is motion images of head, at least several frames long,
and especially the scene is a talking person with mouth area changing. Some
standard images are better.

Thanks in advance.

Some time ago I caught part of an episode of Quantum, an Australian
popular science program, and it featured a "new" technique of 
model-based object recognition developed in (I think) California for NASA.

It involved transforming the edges of both the image and the model into
a special "edge-space" (my words) where they could be easily compared.

I would like to mention the technique as part of the background to a 
paper I'm writing, but I have no idea who the authors are or any
details of the method.

If anyone can offer me any references, names or pointers of any kind to
this I'd be most grateful.

Beginning in January, I will be leading a senior design project that

anyone suggest some standard algorithms for accomplishing this?  I
could dream up several approaches, but I would like to point the 
students to some references on techniques that are commonly used for
this type of problem.  I'm hoping to have them check out more than
one approach, so a variety of responses would be great.  Any help is

Incidentally, is there a better newsgroup for this question?  This
is more of a computer vision problem than an image processing problem.

I have a program by a researcher no longer here.  It is in
not particularly structured FORTRAN IV written for a PDP 11/60.
The task it performed successfully on that machine was to mean
filter an image, but it sensed whether there was an edge in the
region it was looking at, and if so it preserved it.  Thus 
"noise" was removed without blurring the image appreciably.

I would like to translate it into C and use it on images of a
different size and depth from which it was written, and on a 
different make of framestore and on a Sun.  So it is almost a
complete rewrite that is required.  

So:  Can anyone help me chase up the reference taken from the
header of the program, please?  I am sure I have seen the paper,
and that I did not understand it the first time, and I would
like to read it again.  However I cannot find any clues to where
it might be.  

If someone can point me to another algorithm that does much the
same thing that would be equally good.  OR if someone can find me
a cheap Fortran to C de-spaghettifier & translater I would very
grateful, as just translating it automatically with the tool I 
used preserved the gotos !!! 
The program header, with spelling preserved! follows:

C       THIS PROGRAM IS USING ADAPTIVE AVERAGE PROCESSOR TO
C       SMOOTH THE NOISE AND PRESERVE THE EDIGES

See Jain, Anil K., _Fundamentals of Image Processing_, ISBN 0-13-336165-9

Jain covers this subject quite well in Chapter 9 "Image Analysis and
Computer Vision."  See, in particular, section 9.12, pp. 400-406,
Scene Matching and Detection.

I use an adaptation of the correlational techniques described to track
objects (cells) through a series of images at reasonable rates.  The
technique works fairly well even when the cells are undergoing
moderately radical morphological changes.

After receiving some initial feedback on my question, I thought I'd
clarify a couple of things.  I'm only interested in two directional
components -- horizontal motion parallel to the image plane and motion
in the direction of the camera.  Speed of computation isn't an issue
for now.  Also, I'm using a single view, not stereo.  The background
may or may not be stationary.  (Either assumption would be of interest
in this project.)
