However, efficient approach to estimate window setting for CT brain images is not yet founded. Window setting consists of 2 components: window center (WC) and window width (WW). In this paper, a novelty estimation method namely estimation of window width using mean of greyscale level to standard deviation ratio (EWWMGSR) is developed to determine the WW for CT brain images, with WC is fixed as 40 HU. The results show the robustness of EWWMGSR method in determining the estimated WW value, compared with prior existing approaches. Most of them are determined manually and within a very small range. EWWMGSR estimates better window width value for radiologists in CT brain image diagnoses.","PeriodicalId":393534,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Robotics, Automation and Sciences (ICORAS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122174789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The accident occurred due to the high speed of vehicles on the road. This paper proposed a vehicle speed detection and travel time estimation system using Raspberry Pi to estimate the speed of passing vehicles through this system. The system is designed to detect the moving vehicles and calculate its velocity. The system used OpenCV as an image processing software to detect and track the moving vehicles. Several types of capturing size of the video are used in this system to check and measure the performance of the embedded board.","PeriodicalId":393534,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Robotics, Automation and Sciences (ICORAS)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123273552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method aim to visualize the diagnosed result from the 2D gray scale Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) images. It provides an attractive 3D model for doctors to have a better explanation regarding the diagnosed result to the patients. A series of 2D breast DICOM images are obtained by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Then, the images are sorted by using the image sorting system. After the breast images are sorted, the 3D reconstruction method is utilized to construct the 3D model. By comparing the proposed method with existing methods, the proposed method has utilized the breasts lesion detection to classify breast lesions during the 3D reconstruction process. Thus, the tabulated results show that SIHE outperforms other existing methods in similar field.","PeriodicalId":393534,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Robotics, Automation and Sciences (ICORAS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127777902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
