Determination of fish gender using fractal analysis of ultrasound images.

30 Aug 2009 The gender of cod Gadus morhua can be determined by considering the complexity in their gonadal ultrasonographic appearance. The fractal dimension (D(B)) can be used to describe this feature in images. B-mode gonadal ultrasound images in 32 cod, ... Read more...

Detection, localization, and sex classification of faces from arbitrary viewpoints and under occlusion.

30 Aug 2009 This paper presents a novel framework for detecting, localizing, and classifying faces in terms of visual traits, e.g., sex or age, from arbitrary viewpoints and in the presence of occlusion. All three tasks are embedded in a general ... Read more...

Assignment of the sex of rearing in the neonate with a disorder of sex development.

30 Jul 2009 PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Infants born with ambiguous genitalia [henceforth referred to as Disorder of Sex Development (DSD)] present a unique set of clinical challenges requiring an organized yet practical approach. Given the low frequency with which ... Read more...
