Hybrid mean adaptive center weighted median filter for color sensor denoisingPublication Year: 2004, Page(s):321 - 326
Cited by: Papers (1)
The paper describes a novel method for removing sensor noise from images acquired using digital cameras at high ISO settings. The problem lies in the fact that the algorithm must deal with hardware-related sensor noise that affects certain color channels more than others and is thus non-uniform over all color channels. An adaptive signal equalization mean and median hybrid filter is formulated and... View full abstract»
Measurement of skin texture using genetic image analysisPublication Year: 2004, Page(s):787 - 791
A binarization method of images for presumption of skin age is proposed using genetic programming (GP) which is an evolutionary computing method.

Re: McMeans (McMinns) of Chester Co. SC/USA-
Hunter was Ester (Esther, Easter)'s maiden name. She was md to a Sample prior to marrying Anthony McMeans.He had previously been md to Phebe (Phoeba) Patten.One source thought Lucinda was a Hunter only; if so, it would appear she was illiegitimate which I do not think is correct.I believe she was given her mother's maiden name as a middle name which was a frequent practice in those days. I need someone to check out Roane, TN marriage records (where I think Lucinda md Thomas Blake) to see what name Lucinda used on the marriage record, probably early 1800s.Another suggestion would be that she may have been named for neighbors, close relatives, a doctor or midwife.

Need Auto Repair Help? Here's The Answers
Are you the owner of a car owner?If the answer is yes, your car will probably be needing repairs in the future. You can feel like you're going insane when trying to locate a good mechanic. The following advice will help you find a great company to use.
This certification guarantees that the mechanic has been tested and has at least two years experience as a mechanic. This means a top professional is doing your car.
Make sure you often check the radiator in your car. Run your engine for several minutes, turn it off then pop the hood. You never open up the radiator if your car is still running. Check radiator fluid by using a dipstick and remember to always mix the coolant with water prior to adding it.
Ask the technician at the repair shop you are considering if they have worked on your particular make and model of vehicle before. If they have before, this should inform you that they know what your car needs to work properly.
Think about finding a mechanic who does repairs in his own garage. If they have auto repair experience they can provide quality work, they can typically do jobs for far less cost. You can save tons of money and provide an independent worker by going down this route.
The weight of a big key chain. If your key sticks, its time to replace the tumblers and say goodbye to your troll buddy!
Do not let a mechanic work on your car before knowing about their prices and the rates for labor.Some repair shops display their rates, so you need to carefully read and ask any questions you have if something doesn't make sense. You will need to know how you're billed for the repairs. Some shops will give an estimate on the repair time estimates established by manufacturers. A lot of repairs that seem to be easy to fix could end up taking a whole day job.
Be sure you know how often the oil change schedule.You should regularly to keep your car running smoothly. If you don't change it, your car may not last as long as it could.
Even if you think your vehicle just has a minor issue, have it looked at by a professional. A seemingly small problem may grow into a big one if don't pay attention to it.
Bleed your brakes after your work is done on a test drive. Test it for leaks to ensure you don't have fluid can run out. Now you can take your car a test drive on roads with light traffic. Drive slowly at first so that the fix is good before you can ensure your repairs have been performed correctly.
After paying to replace old parts, ask him to return the old one to you. If he doesn't do this, he may not have done anything with your car. This is a definite red flag and you should confront him about it.
Always listen to the sounds coming from your vehicle is making. Noise can indicate a problem if you know what to listen for.
Put your car on jack when you are placing it in storage.
Ask to get your mechanic to give you the old parts given back to you. This will ensure that your repairs were actually done. This isn't particularly necessary for exhaust system changed.You can see whether a new exhaust system is installed.
Ask people you trust for a good mechanic. This is a great way to locate a reputable mechanic because you know first hand that they have done good work in the past. This gives you much better than just picking one out of the blue.
The mechanic is the first barrier you face with auto repair. You do not want to have anything to do with a mechanic that seems untrustworthy. Watch for negative body language like lack of eye contact, not answering your questions, and ignore your questions.
You will have many options as to where you want your vehicle fixed. Independent garages are cheaper, but you also may run into a shop that is dishonest.
Do not try to repair your car unless you're sure you have experience doing it. You could end up voiding your warranty by doing the work yourself. This will make you financially responsible for all repairs associated with your vehicle.
You can delay repair on small stuff, but major issues, steering wheel, tires or brakes give you trouble. You may end up in danger if a part that needs to be replaced finally breaks down.
Once you've got a diagnosis, you should get online to compare prices and to look for parts. There are may websites you can use to get a detailed estimate of how much the repairs will cost you. Compare these estimates with quotes you receive from the shop.
Tire wear is something you can be prevented by regular basis. You should have them rotated around every 6000 miles, but this can vary depending on the make or model of the vehicle you drive. Get new tires to avoid them getting worn very quickly.
The process of finding good auto repair shops can be difficult due to shady companies. Use the tips you just read the next time you run into issues with your car. A little research in finding the right service shop can make your life a whole lot easier.

OF, Abraham Almonte: The toolsy centerfielder seemed poised for a breakout season in 2010 after finishing his 2009 campaign by hitting .368 over his final 33 games and carrying over that hot finish into a great Spring Training last season. He lasted just 15 games into the Florida State League season last year, however, succumbing to season-ending labrum surgery on his right shoulder.
Ask anyone surrounding his development and they'll all testify how he much he has matured mentally. Some even consider him an instrumental mentor to his younger Latin American counterparts and nearly everyone is convinced he has turned the corner. A return to health in 2011 could produce some eye-popping numbers from the switch-hitter.
RHP, Shane Greene: A 2-8 record with a combined 4.59 ERA over two A-ball levels doesn't exactly inspire confidence when talking about potential breakout candidates, but the overall numbers don't exactly tell the whole story. He posted a 3.89 over his final seven starts with Staten Island, all while fixing his mechanics, and he had one really rough outing in Charleston [7 earned runs in 2 innings] where he was sick and on medication.
All that aside, however, his mechanics and stuff are beginning to come together at the right time. He doesn't have nearly the same issues with his delivery, his changeup has become a plus pitch, and he's beginning to pitch with better control. All of that spells breakout potential in 2011.
C, Kyle Higashioka: Critics quickly dismiss 'Higgy' because of the .225 batting average at the low-A level last season, overlooking the fact that he hit a solid .290 after the All Star break when most catchers at that level are usually breaking down.
Ask anyone who either coached him, played with him, or even broadcasted his games in 2010, they'll all say the same thing too about his bad first-half numbers -- the guy was just unlucky hitting balls hard right at defenders. His second-half numbers suggested a return to normalcy and that should continue into a potential breakout 2011 season.
3B, Fu-Lin Kuo: As in the case with Higashioka and Greene, Kuo's numbers in 2010 belie his actual talent. There's nothing wrong with a .243 average and four home runs at the rookie level in your professional debut season, but they definitely disguise just how dominant he was for the better part of four months leading up to the Gulf Coast League season.
Playing the season as a 19-year old from Taiwan, he had many adjustments to make that weren't necessarily baseball related; language, culture, food, weather, etc. He should now know what to expect the second time around and he could have a Ramon Flores-like bounceback season in 2011.
C, J.R. Murphy: Like Kuo, there's nothing to sneeze at when it comes to Murphy's debut season numbers [.255, 7 home runs], especially considering he was learning the catcher's position for essentially the first time and doing so after skipping the short-season leagues entirely.
The fact is he hit for a higher average and smacked six of his seven home runs in the second-half of the season and then showed off his power potential during Instructs by barely being edged out by Kelvin De Leon in the home run derby. With a year under his belt and with his makeup, he screams 'breakout' potential.
