Abstract: La présente invention porte, en général, sur des procédés de segmentation en imagerie ultrasonore intravasculaire, et en particulier, sur un procédé de segmentation d'image intravasculaire par ultrason visant à caractériser des couche vasculaires d'un vaisseau sanguin. Le procédé de segmentation précité visant à évaluer les limites des couches dans un vaisseau multicouche génère des données d'image qui représentent une pluralité d'éléments d'image du vaisseau multicouche. Le procédé permet également de déterminer une pluralité d'interfaces initiales correspondant à des régions des données d'image à segmenter et permet également de propager concurremment les interfaces initiales correspondant aux régions à segmenter. Le procédé permet ainsi d'évaluer les limites des couches du vaisseau multicouche par propagation des interfaces initiales en utilisant un modèle de progression rapide sur la base d'une fonction de probabilité qui décrit au moins une caractéristique des éléments d'image.

Abstract: A method for selecting objects (16) displayed on a display (11) is suggested, wherein the display (11) has pixels arranged in rows and columns for reproducing images of the objects that can be selected, and wherein light detecting means (6) are associated with each pixel or groups of pixels. The method includes the steps of displaying selectable objects (16) by accordingly controlling individual or groups of pixels and determining a reference map of the incident light for one or groups of the light detecting means (6). Once a reference map is determined temporary differences from the reference map in the incident light are detected for one or groups of the light detecting means (6). The detected temporary differences are located with reference to the position of the light detecting means (6) within the arrangement of rows and columns of the pixels. The thus located temporary differences in the incident light are referred to images of selectable objects (16) displayed on the display (11), and the temporary difference referred to a selectable object (16) is interpreted as a selection of the object. Eventually, a signal indicating the selection of the selectable object is issued.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of noninvasively and quantitatively evaluating a degree of a hair damage, specifically the degree of a hair damage caused by a permanent treatment and/or the degree of a damage caused by an oxidation treatment. The degree of a damage of a hair, whose degree of a damage is unknown, is evaluated on the basis of a correlation between the degree of a hair damage and a result of multivariate analysis near infrared absorption spectrum of the hair. The correlation can be obtained based on a result of multivariate analysis of near infrared absorption spectra of two or more kinds of hairs, whose degree of a damage is known. Furthermore, a hysteresis of treatment applied to the hair or the likelihood to be easily damaged by a treatment is determined from the obtained evaluation result. Principal component analysis (PCA), SIMCA, or KNN is preferably used as an algorithm of the multivariate analysis.
