Energy-based ultrasound elastography techniques minimize a regularized cost function consisting of data and continuity terms to obtain local displacement estimates based on the local time-delay estimation (TDE) between radio-frequency (RF)…
Time delay estimation (TDE) between two radio-frequency (RF) frames is one of the major steps of quasi-static ultrasound elastography, which detects tissue pathology by estimating its mechanical properties. Regularized optimization-based…
Displacement estimation is very important in ultrasound elastography and failing to estimate displacement correctly results in failure in generating strain images. As conventional ultrasound elastography techniques suffer from decorrelation…
The interest in deep learning methods for solving traditional signal processing tasks has been steadily growing in the last years. Time delay estimation (TDE) in adverse scenarios is a challenging problem, where classical approaches based…
A new time-delay estimation (TDE) technique based on dynamic programming is developed, to measures the time-varying time-delay between two signals. Dynamic programming based TDE technique provides a frequency response 5 to 10 times higher…
Quasi-static ultrasound elastography (USE) is an imaging modality that consists of determining a measure of deformation (i.e.strain) of soft tissue in response to an applied mechanical force. The strain is generally determined by estimating…
Ultrasound imaging is extensively employed in clinical settings due to its non-ionizing nature and real-time capabilities. The beamformer represents a crucial component of an ultrasound machine, playing a significant role in shaping the…
Timbre allows us to distinguish between sounds even when they share the same pitch and loudness, playing an important role in music, instrument recognition, and speech. Traditional approaches, such as frequency analysis or machine learning,…
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is an efficient tool to optimize the multiparameter tests of general relativity (GR) where one tests for simultaneous deviations in multiple post-Newtonian (PN) phasing coefficients by introducing…
Motivated by the proliferation of mobile devices, we consider a basic form of the ubiquitous problem of time-delay estimation (TDE), but with communication constraints between two non co-located sensors. In this setting, when joint…
Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is a noninvasive way to measure stiffness of soft tissue for medical diagnosis. In SWE imaging, an acoustic radiation force induces tissue displacement, which creates shear waves (SWs) that travel…
