The focused data are displayed by showing from two different perspectives the 3D contour of an iso-amplitude surface.
Display programmes were developed to produce either a perspective plot or an isofrequency contour plot ("fingerprint") of the two-parameter data.
From our perspective, the concavity in isodensity contours plays a central role in EPB production.
The formulation of the functional is considered from the level set perspective, so that explicit boundary contours and edge-preserving regularization are both addressed naturally.
He explained: "In front of any painting, figurative or non-figurative I felt more and more that the lines and all their consequences, the contours, the forms, the perspectives, the compositions, became exactly the like the bars on the window of a prison.
