Active Volume Models for Medical Image Segmentation [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2011 In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model, active volume model (AVM), for object boundary extraction. It is a dynamic "object" model whose manifestation includes a deformable curve or surface representing a shape, a volumetric interior carrying appearance statistics, and an embedded classifier that separates object from background based on ...

Compressive deformation mechanisms in high-density polyethylene over a wide range of strain rates
Mechanical Engineering JournalWe investigated compressive deformation of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) over a wide range of strain rates. The compression tests were conducted by using a split-Hopkinson bar apparatus at 103 s-1, a custom-built cam plastometer at 101-100 s-1, and a ...

Negative activation volumes of defects in solids
Physical Review B, 1980 A macroscopic model has been recently proposed which permits the calculation of the formation and activation volumes of defects. It is shown that this model can adequately explain the unusual negative activation volume ${v}^{\mathrm{act}}$ observed recently in $B\ensuremath{-}4$ AgI (and earlier in cerium).
