Novel method to delineate palatal rugae and assess their complexity using fractal analysis
Scientific Reports, 2022 Palatal rugae constitute significant morphological landmarks, with wide clinical applications in forensics, insertion of mini-screws, and superimposition. Their morphology has been studied mainly with indices relevant to their qualitative characteristics.

Characteristics Analysis of Two-Dimensional Configuration Using Modified Box-Count Method
Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Informatics, 2005 An architectural floor plan includes elements that determine movement of people within the architectural space and that play an important role in relating people and architecture. Especially since modern times, various shapes that deviate and escape from a floor plan by means of right-angled constitution have arisen and have been used as elements of ...

Natural catastrophes and point-like processes Data handling and prevision
Annals of Geophysics, 1998 A frequent approach when attempting to manage a natural catastrophe is in terms of a numerical model, by which we try to forecast its occurrence in space and time. But, sometimes this is difficult or even unrealistic.

Fractal Organization of Chilean Cities: Observations from a Developing Country
Land, 2023 Urban forms are human-made systems that display a close connection with fractal objects, following organisation patterns that are not as random as believed. In this context, fractal theory can be seriously considered as a powerful tool for characterizing

Comparison of gliding box and box-counting methods in river network analysis [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2007 Abstract. We use multifractal analysis to estimate the Rényi dimensions of river basins by two different partition methods. These methods differ in the way that the Euclidian plane support of the measure is covered, partitioning it by using mutually exclusive boxes or by gliding a box over the plane.

Sensory Integration Training Tool Design for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017 This study aims to design a training tool for therapy of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASDs). Typically, ASDs pass through obstacle track several times with sandbags, which should be picked up from starting point and threw into a box at the end

AN IMPROVED BOX-COUNTING METHOD TO ESTIMATE FRACTAL DIMENSION OF IMAGES
Journal of Applied Analysis & Computation, 2016 Fractal dimension (FD) reflects the intrinsic self-similarity of an image and can be used in image classification, image segmentation and texture analysis. The differential box-counting (DBC) method is a common approach to calculating the FD values. This paper proposes an improved DBC-based approach to optimizing the performance of the method in the ...

Pedestrian counting estimation based on fractal dimension
Heliyon, 2019 Counting the number of pedestrians in urban environments has become an area of interest over the past few years. Its applications include studies to control vehicular traffic lights, urban planning, market studies, and detection of abnormal behaviors ...
