From: amini@tcville.hac.com (Afshin Amini)
Subject: line finder software
I would like to know if anyone has a public domain line finder.
This would mean an edge detector processing followd by a linear feature
extractor which can identify lines of certain legnth and certain angle..
thanks,

Subject: 4D--images: have algorithm, need images (volume--time sequences)
Keywords: 4D, orientation estimation
Organization: Dept of EE, University of Linkoping
We have developed a 4D--orientation estimation algorithm. The
algorithm has been tested and verified on artificial images. The next
step is to use it on real data.
If you have, or know of, any such `images', please send me an email.
A 4D image is (of course :-) an image with four `spatial' coordinates.
A `normal' 2D image can be written as a luminance (or grey level)
function L(x,y). The luminance function for a 4D image can be written
as L(x,y,z,w). A time sequence of volume data (3 dimensions
of space plus one for time) is the obvious example, i.e. L(x,y,z,t).
The Biodynamic Research Unit (BRU) at the Mayo Clinic is one group
(the only one I know of) that has been involved in the analysis of 4D
images. Here is one reference to their work although not specifically
about 4D:

Subject: Canny's edge detector : C- code request
Organization: University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA
I am interested in obtaining the C -code for
Canny's Edge detector. Does anyone know if it
is available in public domain and how I can get it ?
Thank you

Subject: Interesting Grad study opportunity
Please bring to the attention of students interested in graduate work in
vision: The Psychology Department at Rutgers Univ. now has several people
with active research programs: Jih Jie Chang (motion, stereo), Charles
Chubb (motion, texture, spatial vision), Bela Julesz (stereo, texture,
attention mechanisms), Eileen Kowler (eye movements), Michael Leyton
(shape perception) and Thomas Papathomas (motion, stereo, models). Financial
support is available. For applications and further information contact:
Vice-Chair for Graduate Studies, Dept. of Psychology, Rutgers University,
New Brunswick, N.J., 08903.
