An Automatic Multilevel Image Thresholding Using Relative Entropy and Meta-Heuristic Algorithms
Entropy, 2013 Multilevel thresholding has been long considered as one of the most popular techniques for image segmentation. Multilevel thresholding outputs a gray scale image in which more details from the original picture can be kept, while binary thresholding can ...

Hybrid procedures in treatment of multilevel lesions of the brachiocephalic arteries [PDF]
BMC Proceedings, 2013 Background Multilevel significant atherosclerotic disease involving the carotid bifurcation and the proximal ipsilateral common carotid or brachiocephalic arteries presents an uncommon and difficult management problem. Axial (aortocarotid bypass) or extra-anatomic procedures (subclavian–carotid bypass, carotid–carotid bypass, carotid–subclavian ...

Equivalent-Capacity-Based Design of Space-Time Block-Coded Sphere-Packing-Aided Multilevel Coding [PDF]
, 2007 A multilevel coding (MLC) scheme invoking sphere packing (SP) modulation combined with space time block coding (STBC) is designed. The coding rates of each of the MLC component codes are determined using the so-called equivalent capacity based ...

Comparisons of Estimation Procedures for Nonlinear Multilevel Models [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Software, 2003 We introduce General Multilevel Models and discuss the estimation procedures that may be used to fit multilevel models. We apply the proposed procedures to three-level binary data generated in a simulation study. We compare the procedures by two criteria, Bias and efficiency.
