Assessing building damage after earthquakes requires a visual inspection of the damage,
indicated by maps of the cracking pattern on walls, which could be standardized via …

The evolution of cracks in reinforced concrete (RC) structures may trigger critical failure
modes of the entire structure. In order to adequately assess the damage in RC structures, it …

Trabecular bone microarchitecture and bone mineral density (BMD) are two main factors
related to osteoporotic fractures. Currently, however, microarchitecture is not evaluated in …

Osteoporosis is a disease in which low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of
bone tissue lead to increased bone fragility and a consequent increase in fracture risk. The …

Class III malocclusion is a combination of dental and skeletal disorders that causes
discrepancies in occlusion. Malocclusion can affect the structure of the Temporomandibular …

Osteoporosis is a condition that is characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural
deterioration of bone tissue, leading to enhanced bone fragility and a consequent increase …

Multifractal analysis has been recognized as a powerful tool in characterizing textures.
Several studies have shown the possibilities offered by multifractal analysis in image …

A fractal dimension is an effective feature for texture analysis, segmentation and
classification in many fields. The most frequently used method to estimate the fractal …

Several studies have shown the possibilities offered by multifractal analysis in image
processing, particularly for classification of heterogeneous texture with a great complexity in …

Osteoporosis is an illness characterized by a bone fragility, which exposes a person to a
fracture risk. The purpose of this work is to assess osteoporosis using different attributes of …
