Background and objectives Automatic brain structures segmentation in magnetic resonance
images has been widely investigated in recent years with the goal of helping diagnosis and …

In this paper, we use the cumulative distribution of a random variable to define its
information content and thereby develop an alternative measure of uncertainty that extends …

In analogy with the cumulative residual entropy recently proposed by Wang et al.[2003a. A
new and robust information theoretic measure and its application to image alignment. In …

Recently, Rao et al.[(2004) Cumulative residual entropy: a new measure of information.
IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory 50 (6), 1220–1228] have proposed a new measure of …

In this paper we present a new approach for the non-rigid registration of multi-modality
images. Our approach is based on an information theoretic measure called the cumulative …

In summer of 2010, the first author (HL) visited the second author (XL) at Lanzhou University,
China, and chaired the dissertation defense for XL's two graduating doctoral students …

620 Medical Imaging example, provide structural information of our body (eg, an anatomical
map), but do not convey functional information*(ie, relating to metabolic functions of an …

Recently, Rao et al.(2004) introduced an alternative measure of uncertainty known as the
cumulative residual entropy (CRE). It is based on the survival (reliability) function F̅ instead …

Interpretations of Hadamard-type fractional integral and differential operators are proposed.
The Hadamard-type fractional integrals of function with respect to another function are …

Mutual information (MI) was introduced for use in multimodal image registration over a
decade ago [1, 2, 3, 4]. The MI between two images is based on their marginal and …
