A critical component in the computer-aided medical diagnosis of digital chest X-rays is the automatic detection of lung abnormalities, since the effective identification at an initial stage constitutes a significant and crucial factor in patient&rsqu...
This study aims to investigate a set of electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode lead locations to improve the quality of four-lead ECG signals acquired during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This was achieved by identifying electrode placements that mini...

Moving foreground detection is a very important step for many applications such as human behavior analysis for visual surveillance, model-based action recognition, road traffic monitoring, etc. Background subtraction is a very popular approach, but i...
The detection of objects of interest in high-resolution digital pathological images is a key part of diagnosis and is a labor-intensive task for pathologists. In this paper, we describe a Faster R-CNN-based approach for the detection of glomeruli in...
In the context of video background–foreground separation, we propose a compressive online Robust Principal Component Analysis (RPCA) with optical flow that separates recursively a sequence of video frames into foreground (sparse) and background...
The digital comic book market is growing every year now, mixing digitized and digital-born comics. Digitized comics suffer from a limited automatic content understanding which restricts online content search and reading applications. This study shows...
Scanning electron microscopy is widespread in field of material science and research, especially because of its high surface sensitivity due to the increased interactions of electrons with the target material’s atoms compared to X-ray-oriented...
Graphic novels such as comic books and mangas are well known all over the world. The digital transition started to change the way people are reading comics: more and more on smartphones and tablets, and less and less on paper. In recent years, a wide...
Given a video sequence acquired from a fixed camera, the stationary background generation problem consists of generating a unique image estimating the stationary background of the sequence. During the IEEE Scene Background Modeling Contest (SBMC) org...

This paper presents an overview of coding methods used to encode a set of covariance matrices. Starting from a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) adapted to the Log-Euclidean (LE) or affine invariant Riemannian metric, we propose a Fisher Vector (FV) descr...
Seed imbibition is a very important process in plant biology by which, thanks to a simple water income, a dry seed may turn into a developing organism. In natural conditions, this process occurs in the soil, e.g., with difficult access for a direct o...
