Detection and classification of heart murmurs play an important role in accurate diagnosis of different types of heart dysfunctions. In this paper, we present a noise-robust method for detection and classification of heart murmurs using stationary wavelet transform (SWT) and Hilbert phase envelope. The proposed method consists of five major stages: SWT based PCG signal […]

Volume rendering is a popular visualization technique for scientific computing and medical imaging. By assigning proper transparency, it allows us to see more information inside the volume. However, because volume rendering projects complex 3D structures into the 2D domain, the resultant visualization often suffers from ambiguity and its spatial relationship could be difficult to recognize […]

In this letter, we consider bivariate gamma distributions with arbitrary parameters and obtain closed-form expressions for the cumulative distribution function for scenarios where the difference between the shape parameters of the marginal distributions is an integer.
