Advances in Mass Data Analysis of Images and Signals in Medicine, Biotechnology, Chemistry and Food Industry: Third International Conference, MDA

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Mass Data Analysis of Images and Signals in Medicine, Biotechnology, Chemistry and Food Industry, MDA 2008, held in Leipzig, Germany, on July 14, 2008.

The 18 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The topics include techniques and developments of signal and image producing procedures, object matching and object tracking in microscopic and video microscopic images, 1D, 2D and 3D shape analysis, description, feature extraction of texture, structure and location, and signal analysis and interpretation, image segmentation algorithms, parallelization of image analysis and interpretation algorithms, and semantic tagging of microscopic images, and application-oriented research from life science applications.
