  • Mapping brain structural and functional connections through the whole brain is essential for understanding brain mechanisms and the physiological bases of brain diseases. Although region specific structural or functional deficits cause brain diseases, the changes of interregional connections could also be important factors of brain diseases. This review will introduce common neuroimaging modalities, including structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging, and other recent neuroimaging analyses methods, such as voxel-based morphometry, cortical thickness analysis, local gyrification index, and shape analysis for structural imaging. Tract-Based Spatial Statistics, TRActs Constrained by UnderLying Anatomy for diffusion MRI, and independent component analysis for fMRI also will also be introduced.

  • The spatial distribution of snow cover area is a crucial input to models of hydrology and climate in alpine and other seasonally snow covered areas.The objective in our study is to develop a rapidly automatic and high accuracy snow cover mapping algorithm applicable for the Tibetan Plateau which is the most sensitive about climatic change. Monitoring regional snow extent reqires higher temoral frequency-moderate spatial resolution imagery.Our algorithm is based AVHRR and MODIS data and will provide long-term fraction snow cover area map.We present here a technique is based on the multiple endmembers approach and by taking advantages of current approaches, we developed a technique for automatic selection of local reference spectral endmembers.

  • The mainly used technique to correct satellite images with geometric distortion is to develop a mathematical relationship between pixels on the image and corresponding points on the ground. Polynomial models with various transformations have been designed for defining the relationship between two coordinate systems. GCP based geometric correction has peformed overall plane to plane mapping. In the overall plane mapping, overall structure of a scene is considered, but local variation is discarded. The Region with highly variant height is rectified with distortion on overall plane mapping. To consider locally variable region in satellite image, TIN-based rectification on a satellite image is proposed in this paper. This paper describes the relationship between GCP distribution and rectification model through experimental result and analysis about each rectification model. We can choose a geometric correction model as the structural characteristic of a satellite image and the acquired GCP distribution.

  • Due to the limited field of view of the pinhole camera, there is a lack of stability and accuracy in camera pose estimation applications such as visual SLAM. Nowadays, multiple-camera setups and large field of cameras are used to solve such issues. However, a multiple-camera system increases the computation complexity of the algorithm. Therefore, in multiple camera-assisted visual simultaneous localization and mapping (vSLAM) the multi-view tracking algorithm is proposed that can be used to balance the budget of the features in tracking and local mapping. The proposed algorithm is based on PanoSLAM architecture with a panoramic camera model. To avoid the scale issue 3D LiDAR is fused with omnidirectional camera setup. The depth is directly estimated from 3D LiDAR and the remaining features are triangulated from pose information. To validate the method, we collected a dataset from the outdoor environment and performed extensive experiments. The accuracy was measured by the absolute trajectory error which shows comparable robustness in various environments.

  • It is difficult to settle the well-designed local terminology for imaging report in the hospital information system (HIS). One of the major reasons is the local terminology with poor contents have been used in the hospital. Thus, we mapped the locally used terms in nuclear medicine imaging report to the SNOMED-CT, which had been widely used in the electronic medical record system, for implementation of hospital information system. Preliminary construction of terminology dictionary was done by mapping of local terms to SNOMED-CT and LexCare Suite. Further study may be warranted.

  • This paper introduces a local non-positivity of two set-valued mappings (F,Q) and considers the existences and properties of solutions for set-valued mixed vector FQ-implicit variational inequality problems and set-valued mixed vector FQ-complementarity problems in the neighborhood of a point belonging to an underlined domain K of the set-valued mappings, where the neighborhood is contained in K. This paper generalizes and extends many results in [1, 3-7].

  • In this paper we consider estimation of cancer incidence rates for local areas. The raw estimates usually are based on small sample sizes and hence are usually unreliable. A hierarchical Bayes generalized linear model is used which connects the local areas thereby enabling one to 'borrow strength' Random effects with pairwise difference priors model the spatial structure in the data. The methods are applied to cancer incidence estimation for census tracts in a certain region of the state of New York.

  • Limitations on the linear discriminant analysis (LDA) for face rerognition, such as the loss of generalization and the computational infeasibility, are addressed and illustrated for a small number of samples. The principal component analysis (PCA) followed by the LDA mapping may be an alternative that ran overcome these limitations. We also show that any schemes based on either mappings or template matching are vulnerable to image variations due to rotation, translation, facial expressions, or local illumination conditions. This entails the importance of a proper preprocessing that can compensate for such variations. A simple template matching, when combined with the geometrically correlated feature-based detection as a preprocessing, is shown to outperform mapping techniques in terms of both the accuracy and the robustness to image variations.

  • For the purpose of disease mapping, we consider the four small area estimation techniques to estimate the mortality rate of small areas; direct, Empirical estimation with total moment estimator and local moment estimator, Estimation based on hierarchial generalized linear model. The estimators are compared by empirical study based on lung cancer mortality data from 2000 Annual Reports on the Cause of Death Statistics in Gyeongsang-Do and Jeonla-Do published by Korean National Statistical Office. Also he stability and efficiency of these estimators are investigated in terms of mean square deviation as well as variation of estimates.

  • Globally, landslides triggered by natural or human activities have resulted in enormous damage to both property and life. Recent climatic changes and anthropogenic activities have increased the number of occurrence of these disasters. Despite many researches, there is no standard method that can produce reliable prediction. This article discusses the process of landslide susceptibility mapping using various methods in current literatures and applies the FR (Frequency Ratio) method to develop a susceptibility map for the 2015 earthquake region of Sindhupalchowk, Nepal. The complete mapping process describes importance of selection of area, and controlling factors, widespread techniques of modelling and accuracy assessment tools. The FR derived for various controlling factors available were calculated using pre- and post- earthquake landslide events in the study area and the ratio was used to develop susceptibility map. Understanding the process could help in better future application process and producing better accuracy results. And the resulting map is valuable for the local general and authorities for prevention and decision making tasks for landslide disasters.
