Vessel Layer Separation of X-ray Angiographic Images using Deep Learning Methods

Percutaneous coronary intervention is a minimally-invasive procedure to treat coronary artery disease. In such procedures, X-ray angiography, a real-time imaging technique, is commonly used for image guidance to identify lesion sites and navigate catheters and guide-wires within coronary arteries. Due to the physical nature of X-ray imaging,...

A Multi-hop Aware Scheduling Mechanism for HSDPA and IEEE 802.11 Integrated Network

By simulating the integrated networks with multiple gateways and TCP flows, we get the unfairness in the HSDPA and IEEE 802.11 integrated networks. The unfairness has two sources: the HSDPA cellular subnetwork and the IEEE 802.11 subnetwork. A novel scheduling algorithm - Multi-hop Aware Scheduling has been proposed to resolve the unfairness...
