Mathematical Methods for Images and Surfaces 2011
Description
The scope of this special issue is to create an excellent media for researchers from engineering, biological, and mathematical sciences to report novel mathematical and computational models, methods, and results, with applications to biomedical imaging, biomedical engineering, and biological science. Research findings which are relevant to biomedical science and technology and involve strong mathematical components are particularly welcome. Original papers and high-quality review articles on a wide range of topics in images and surfaces are solicited for this special issue. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Geometric flows, higher-order curvature flows, and gradient flows for image and surface analysis
- Mumford-Shah functional
- Level set methods and their applications
- Wavelets, frames, and multiresolution analysis
- Mathematical algorithms for images and surfaces
- Image edge detection, segmentation, pattern recognition, and video analysis and processing
- Computational methods for biomedical imaging
- Algorithms for bioluminescence imaging, fluorescent imaging, PET imaging, ultrasound imaging, MRI, and tomography
- Computational methods for anatomy
- Mathematical analysis of biomedical and biological surfaces
