Topological Algorithms for Digital Image Processing (Machine Intelligence and Pattern Recognition)

Elsevier Limited, 1996

Objects in three dimensions, and their two-dimensional images, are approximated digitally by sets of voxels ("volume elements") or pixels ("picture elements"), respectively. Digital geometry is the study of geometric properties of digitized objects (or digitized images of objects); it deals both with the definitions of such...

New discoveries are being made every day, and...

Special Issue on Emerging Bacterial Toxins (Reviews of Physiology, Biochemistry and Pharmacology)

Springer, 2005

Many bacterial ADP-ribosyltransferases are potent bacterial protein toxins and important virulence factors. After cellular uptake caused by highly efficient cell entry mechanisms, they modify eukaryotic target proteins with great specificity and often grossly affect biological functions of their targets. These properties of the...
