Conventional radiography is the widely used imaging technology in diagnosing, monitoring, and prognosticating musculoskeletal (MSK) diseases because of its easy availability, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. Bone overlaps are prevalent in conventional radiographs, and can impede the accurate ass…
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease that has been the focus of research in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and disease monitoring. In clinical settings, conventional radiography (CR) is widely used for the screening and evaluation of RA due to its low cost and accessibility. The…
In this study, we propose an efficient stereo matching method which estimates sparse disparities using global phase only correlation (POC). Conventionally, cost functions are to be calculated for all disparity candidates and the associated computational cost has been impediment in achieving a realti…
We propose a bit-depth expansion (BDE) method targeting natural images. In the analog part of an imaging system, signal intensity fluctuations occur due to noise (e.g. thermal noise in the image sensor). After that, in the digital part, the intensities are rounded off to limited levels. The latter p…
