Contour tracing was aided by reviewing the multiple phase scans in the movie mode.
We show that contour traces from stereotyped Norwegian killer whale calls yielded similar automatic classification performance using either whole calls or subunits.
The contours in the proposed algorithm are viewed as a set of edges (or contour segments) that can be traced by a top-down contour tracing method to generate the chain codes for the outer and inner object contours.
In general, these algorithms are categorized into four classes: (i) one-scan [1, 2], (ii) two-scan [3 11], (iii) multi-scan [12], and (iv) contour tracing [13] algorithms.
The semiautomatic method was compared with the usual manual method (manual contour tracing) in terms of its ability to measure a known volume of water (gold standard) as well as the volume of 29 bone cysts.
Late gadolinium enhancement can be measured semi-quantitatively using contour tracing, and more specifically, T2 mapping can be performed to measure disease activity (edema) which can be used in therapy monitoring (Yang et al., 2014).
A hybrid method of using artificial neural network, contour tracing algorithm, and morphological trivial opening is used to extract road from remotely sensed image and is presented by Sowmya et al. [30].
The areas of the lesion, the cavitations within parenchyma, the ventricles and the entire hemispheres were measured by contour tracing these regions on the computer screen.
For a density measurement of pMAPK labeled neurons for each subregion of the LA, the anatomical boundaries of the LA were first demarcated at 4x magnification using a contour tracing tool (Neurolucida, MBF Biosciences, VT) on an image of the LA from a rat brain atlas [20] at the appropriate Bregma (−3.36 mm).
Our published method (the LJL method) uses 72 contour traces progressing from the equator to the pole at intervals of 5°.
