Abstract: Disclosed is a method for measuring the similarity of two-dimensional images, at least one image exhibiting an additional signal, the location dependence or symmetry properties of which are known at least approximately. The images are partitioned into mutually identical subimages such that the extension of at least one subimage in the direction of the gradient of the additional signal is smaller than the extension of this subimage in the direction perpendicular thereto. The subimages are compared separately, and the results of all comparisons are combined to form the measurement result for similarity. As a result, the method becomes insensitive to variations in the additional signal. The method is particularly suited for the determination of defocusing and astigmatism of an electron-microscopic image. For this purpose, it is important to compare the similarity of an experimentally measured image to simulated images, which were generated using defined defocusing and astigmatism values.

Title: Capteur d'image en defilement par integrations successives et sommation, a pixels cmos actifs

Abstract: L'invention concerne les capteurs d'image en forme de barrette linéaire multilignes à défilement et sommation de signal, pour la lecture synchronisée d'une même ligne d'image successivement par N lignes de P pixels photosensibles et la sommation pixel à pixel des signaux lus par les différentes lignes. Les pixels sont des pixels actifs de technologie MOS. A la matrice de pixels (MC) est associée une matrice de transfert (MT) qui comporte N lignes de P registres accumulateurs. A chaque période d'intégration on numérise (par un convertisseur CAN) et on stocke le contenu d'une ligne de pixels dans une ligne de registres accumulateurs, cette dernière ligne étant permutée à chaque nouvelle période d'intégration en correspondance avec le défilement de l'image devant le capteur. Les signaux provenant d'une ligne d'image vue successivement par N lignes de pixels s'accumulent dans une même ligne de registres. Au bout de N périodes d'intégration le contenu d'une ligne déterminée de registres est extrait et cette ligne est remise à zéro. Puis, à chaque période d'intégration suivante c'est le contenu d'une autre ligne (selon une permutation circulaire des N lignes) qui est extrait et remis à zéro. La ligne extraite est à chaque fois celle qui a subi N accumulations après une remise à zéro.

Abstract: The corrective method for processing the results of transcriptomic experiments carried out on a DNA chip obtained by the differential analysis, comprises obtaining the results of the level of gene expression in a reference and treatment condition, calculating the mean level of the expression of each genes, calculating a modulation coefficient of the expression level for each genes, calculating p-value associated with each modulation coefficient, and calculating isobar curve of the p-value in function of the expression level. The corrective method for processing the results of transcriptomic experiments carried out on a DNA chip obtained by the differential analysis, comprises obtaining the results of the level of gene expression in a reference and treatment condition, calculating the mean level of the expression of each genes, calculating a modulation coefficient of the expression level for each genes, calculating p-value associated with each modulation coefficient, and calculating isobar curve of the p-value in function of the expression level. Median modulation coefficient is calculated and associated over the observed isobar curve using global error assessment method. The calculations are carried out in different processing conditions. The calculation of p-value isobar curves includes a representation of a graph by a point of each gene in which logarithm of the mean level of the expression under the condition of reference is noted in x-axis and logarithm of the mean level of the expression under the condition of treatment is noted in y-axis. The isobar curve corresponds to theoretical points for which p-value is equal to p. A user selects the genes on the basis of a value of modulation coefficient and a value having a materiality. An independent claim is included for a computer for implementing the corrective method.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de segmenter une image, qui comprend une entrée utilisateur (301, 305, 307) destinée à recevoir des indications de segment et des indications de limite pour l'image. Chaque indication de segment identifie un ensemble de régions de pixel et une relation entre ledit ensemble de régions de pixel et une catégorie de segment associé d'une pluralité de catégories de segment. Chaque indication de limite identifie une limite entre des pixels appartenant à différentes catégories de segment. Un processeur de segmentation (309) segmente alors l'image en ladite pluralité de catégories de segment, en réponse à la fois au nombre d'indications de segment et au nombre d'indications de limite. Plus spécifiquement, une propagation des valeurs liant les régions de pixel à des catégories de segment est propagée sur la base des indications de segment, la propagation étant limitée (par exemple atténuée ou bloquée) par les indications de limite. L'invention peut améliorer ou faciliter la segmentation d'image interactive, par exemple pour des trames d'un signal vidéo.
