Enhancing the durational enhancement of a tone contrast [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2006
In central and low Franconian dialects of German and Dutch, a lexical tone contrast (accent 1 versus accent 2) exists that is enhanced by a durational difference. While pitch differences vary according to intonation and sentence context, syllables are generally shorter when they have accent 1.

Early Contrast Enhancement: a novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging biomarker of pleural malignancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Pleural Malignancy (PM) is often occult on subjective radiological assessment. We sought to define a novel, semi-objective Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) biomarker of PM, targeted to increased tumour microvessel density (MVD) and ...

Effective Guided Image Filtering for Contrast Enhancement

open access: yesIEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2018
Although the guided image filtering (GIF) has an excellent edge-preserving property, it is prone to suffer from the halo artifacts near the edges. Weighted GIF and gradient-domain GIF try to address the problem by incorporating an edge-aware weighting ...

Real-time contrast enhancement to improve speech recognition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
An algorithm that operates in real-time to enhance the salient features of speech is described and its efficacy is evaluated. The Contrast Enhancement (CE) algorithm implements dynamic compressive gain and lateral inhibitory sidebands across channels in ...

Chemical enhancement of footwear impressions in blood on fabric:part 3: amino acid staining [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Enhancement of footwear impressions, using ninhydrin or ninhydrin analogues is not considered common practice and such techniques are generally used to target amino acids present in fingermarks where the reaction gives rise to colour and possibly ...

Contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound

open access: yesEndoscopic Ultrasound, 2012
The European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) introduced guidelines on the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in 2004. This EFSUMB-document focused mainly on liver applications. However, new applications extending beyond the liver were developed thereafter.

Adaptive Fuzzy Exposure Local Contrast Enhancement

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Numerous factors, such as illumination condition, can affect image quality. Local contrast enhancement is an approach for improving the local visibility detail of an image by increasing the contrast in local regions.

Contrast Enhancement Estimation for Digital Image Forensics [PDF]

open access: yesACM Trans. Multim. Comput. Commun. Appl., 2017
Inconsistency in contrast enhancement can be used to expose image forgeries. In this work, we describe a new method to estimate contrast enhancement operations from a single image.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the pancreas [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Journal of Radiology, 2010
The introduction of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) has led to major improvements in the diagnostic capabilities of ultrasound (US). The innovative use of CEUS for study of the pancreas has created the need for a definition of the most frequent dynamic features of solid and cystic masses.
