Authors: Dumbrell Dan , Steele Robert
Published: September 2013

Traditional forms of health information dissemination have previously involved a few key organizations originating health-related information and disseminating this to clinicians and the community. This information was typically disseminated via private, formalized and non-digital interactions between health information sources (HIS) and clinicians and consumers. With the introduction of the Internet, Web-based health information dissemination led to some changes with greater availability of online health information. However the recent adoption and uptake of social media has led to many more parties, both organizations of varying types, and individuals, participating in public health information dissemination; and this has also led to new forms of sharing health-related information, particularly involving a greater role for individuals. In this paper we introduce empirical findings in relation to how organizations and individuals are now using social media for sharing health information, and from this suggest themes to describe the changes from traditional to contemporary health information dissemination, as well as the new emerging roles and forms of interaction for health information dissemination.

In terms of the phenomenon that red cells and white cells incline to touch each other in urinary sediment images, an improved touching-cell splitting algorithm is proposed in the paper that is based on the bottleneck detection The proposed algorithm is featured by positioning the bottleneck points by the rule of bottleneck, also featured by determining to split a region or not by the criteria of segmentation conditions. Once a splitting is done, the algorithm turn to apply the bottleneck detection again to those regions that are already been segmented. Simulation and experiment show that the performance of the improved algorithm is accurate and stable in splitting ranging from two touched cells to multiple touched circumstances; the enhanced robustness and universality can be enough to prove the practicability of the algorithm a certain level.

Published: September 2013

In this paper, a JPEG steganalysis algorithm based on locality preserving projection (LPP) dimensionality reduction method is proposed for detecting the unseen stego algorithms. The co-occurrence features are extracted from DCT-DWT domain and dimension is reduced by using the LPP method. For improving the generalization capability of the algorithm, SVDD is used as the classifier. Experimental results reveal the fact that our scheme has better generalization capability and is more effective than others.

Authors: Ma Qiang , Xing Ling , Wu Bin
Published: September 2013

A novel watermarking technique to authenticate video of H.264 is presented in this paper, using Uniform Content Locator (UCL) to semantically indexing video content and dual watermarks to preserve and enhance video content integrity and authentication. UCL index information is firstly extracted from video content and is formatted as semantic watermark to be embedded in video content. The UCL watermark is regarded as robust watermark and is then embedded into medium frequencies of DCT-coefficients of H.264 video I-frames in order to protect video attributes property (e.g., video author, copyright, content category). Features information obtained from the previously watermarked DCT-coefficients are treated as fragile watermark and are embedded into the motion vectors of H.264 video P-frames in order to ensure video secrecies (e.g., video integrity, authentication). Experiments demonstrate that this proposed technique can fulfill the requirements of H.264 video authentication and has negligible effects on video code rate change and content distortion.

Published: September 2013

Genetic Algorithm (GA) is designed to reach the optimal solution via weeding out the worse gene strings based on the fitness function. Thus, more appropriate ones can be found and evaluated through such operation over and over until the optimal solution is researched. GA had been demonstrated the effectiveness in solving the problems of unsupervised image classification, one of the optimization problems of large domain. Two indices DBI and FCMI are analyzed for the cluster centers of spectrum in this paper. To evaluate the consentience between the GA classification and the ground truth in the spectrum distribution of landuse, a SPOT-5 satellite image of Shihmem reservoir is adopted for demonstration.

Authors: Zheng Hong , Zhang Kai
Published: September 2013

To distinguish people’s identities, the information is normally included in one gait periodic sequence image. First, the gait energy image for feature extraction of wavelet moments was constructed. After boundary unwrapping, the gait silhouette boundary was extracted and principal component analysis (PCA) was use to obtain its compressed contour features. Then nearest neighbor classifier and support vector machines were applied for classification of these two features. Finally, support vector machine (SVM) on Bayesian rule were used to complete gait recognition with information fusion of different features. The method is evaluated on the National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition (NLPR) gait database and the correct recognition rate is relatively high. The experimental results show that the proposed method has good recognition performance.

Palmprint is widely used in personal identification for an accurate and robust recognition. Multispectral palmprint images capture under different illumination, including Red, Green, Blue and Infrared maybe contribute to the recognition results. However, the evaluation of selection and fusion of how this different spectral images can contribute to improve the robustness of the recognition system is imperative. In this paper, a novel wavelet-based multispectral fusion strategy is presented firstly to obtain the fused images; then block singular value decomposition (B-SVD) is applied for feature extraction; Finally back propagation (BP) neural network method is adopted for authentication. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on PolyU database which contains palmprint images from 500 individuals from four independent frequent band. The obtained results show robustness of our multispectral palmprint image fusion and selection model in comparison with the single spectral palmprint image that presented in the literature.

Rician noise pollutes Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) image and makes later work worse. This paper proposed an filter algorithm which comprehensive utilize Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Shearlet transform. Firstly, it performs a wavelet multi-scale decomposition of image; then, it builds target function in GA; thirdly, it uses the GA to optimal coefficients of Shearlet wavelet threshold value in different scale and different orientation; finally, we obtain the composite image by using inverse lifting wavelet transform. Experimental results show that, the new algorithm presented here is much effective in removing Rician noise.
