RISM: Single-Modal Image Registration via Rank-Induced Similarity Measure.

IEEE transactions on image processing : a publication of the IEEE Signal Processing Society

Ghaffari A, Fatemizadeh E.
PMID: 26390463
IEEE Trans Image Process. 2015 Dec;24(12):5567-80. doi: 10.1109/TIP.2015.2479462. Epub 2015 Sep 16.

Similarity measure is an important block in image registration. Most traditional intensity-based similarity measures (e.g., sum-of-squared-difference, correlation coefficient, and mutual information) assume a stationary image and pixel-by-pixel independence. These similarity measures ignore the correlation between pixel intensities; hence, perfect...

PMID: 27123197
Int J Fertil Steril. 2016 Apr-Jun;10(1):29-35. doi: 10.22074/ijfs.2016.4765. Epub 2016 Apr 05.

BACKGROUND: Dyslipidemia and insulin resistance (IR), occurring in most infertile women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to assess the relationships between lipoprotein ratios and IR...

Application of Central Upwind Scheme for Solving Special Relativistic Hydrodynamic Equations.

PloS one

Yousaf M, Ghaffar T, Qamar S.
PMID: 26070067
PLoS One. 2015 Jun 12;10(6):e0128698. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0128698. eCollection 2015.

The accurate modeling of various features in high energy astrophysical scenarios requires the solution of the Einstein equations together with those of special relativistic hydrodynamics (SRHD). Such models are more complicated than the non-relativistic ones due to the nonlinear...
