Enhanced medical image segmentation using novel level set evolution and efficient optimization by Samad Wali, Adil Jhangeer, Ariana Abdul Rahimzai, Samina Samina, Mudassar Imran

“…In this paper, we introduce a novel framework that addresses these challenges by leveraging adaptive level set evolution, enhanced with a unique edge indication function. Unlike prior edge-based algorithms, which frequently fail with noisy images and have large computing costs, our method incorporates an improved edge indicator term into the level set architecture, considerably improving performance on degraded images. …”

Smart Chaining: Templing and Temple Search by Rajeev Ranjan Kumar Tripathi, Rahul Mishra, Shailesh Kumar Agrahari, Pradeep Kumar Singh, Sarvpal Singh

“…Hash tables continue to be at the forefront of applications that require fast data lookup, but their usefulness in practice depends on effective collision resolution. Classical approaches like chaining (linked lists) and open addressing (linear/quadratic/random probing) have inherent challenges, like chaining degrades with increasing lists, whereas universal hash functions impose unrealistic computational costs on bulk operations. …”
