File Histogram matching.PNG thumb 250px An example of histogram matching Histogram matching is a method in image processing of color mapping color adjustment of two images using the image Image histogram histograms . It is possible to use histogram matching to balance detector responses as a relative detector calibration technique. It can be used to normalize two images, when the images were acquired at the same local illumination such as shadows over the same location, but by different sensors, atmospheric conditions or global illumination. The algorithm Given two images, the reference and the adjusted images, we compute their histograms. Following, we calculate the Cumulative distribution function cumulative functions of the two images histograms math F 1 , math for the reference image and math F 2 , math for the target image. Then for each gray level math G 1 in 0,255 math , we find the gray level math G 2 , math for which math F 1 G 1 F 2 G 2 , math , and this is the result of histogram matching function math M G 1 G 2 , math .

Adaptive histogram equalization is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast vision contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histogram s, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image. Ordinary histogram equalization simply uses a single histogram for an entire image. Consequently, adaptive histogram equalization is considered an image enhancement technique capable of improving an image s local contrast , bringing out more detail in the image. However, it also can produce significant signal noise noise . A generalization of adaptive histogram equalization called contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization , also known as CLAHE , was developed to address the problem of noise amplification.

In neurophysiology , peristimulus time histogram and poststimulus time histogram , both abbreviated PSTH or PST histogram , are histogram s of the times at which neurons fire. These histograms are used to visualize the rate and timing of neuronal spike discharges in relation to an external stimulus or event. The peristimulus time histogram is sometimes called perievent time histogram , and post stimulus and peri stimulus are often hyphen ated. The prefix peri, for through, is typically used in the case of periodic stimuli, in which case the PSTH show neuron firing times wrapped to one cycle of the stimulus. The prefix post is used when the PSTH shows the timing of neuron firings in response to a stimulus event or onset. ref cite book title Introduction to Electrophysiological Methods and Instrumentation author Franklin Bretschneider and Jan R.

Orphan date February 2009 Dose volume histogram DVH , a concept used in radiation treatment planning ref Drzymala et al. Dose Volume Histograms. Intl J Rad Oncology, Biology and Physics 21, 1991, 71 78 ref . DVHs were introduced by Goitein and Verhey in 1979 in a publication by Shipley et al. ref Phys. Med. Biol. 50 2005 L17 L19 ref . The purpose of a DVH is to summarize 3D dose distributions in a graphical 2D format. In modern radiation therapy, 3D dose distributions are typically created in a computerized treatment planning system based on a 3D reconstruction of a Computed tomography CT scan. The volume referred to in DVH analysis can be a target of radiation treatment, a healthy organ nearby a target, or an arbitrary structure. DVHs can be visualized in either of two ways differential DVHs or cumulative DVHs. A DVH is created by first determining the size of the dose bins of the histogram . Bins can be of arbitrary size, e.g. 0 1 Gy, 1.001 2 Gy, 2.001 3 Gy, etc. In a differential DVH, bar or column height indicates the volume of structure receiving a dose given by the bin. Bin doses are along the horizontal axis, and structure volumes either percent or absolute volumes are on the vertical. The differential DVH takes the appearance of a typical histogram. The cumulative DVH is plotted with bin doses along the horizontal axis, as well. However, the column height of the first bin 0 1 Gy, e.g. represents the volume of structure receiving greater than or equal to that dose. The column height of the second bin 1.001 2 Gy, e.g. represents the volume of structure receiving greater than or equal to that dose, etc. With very fine small bin sizes, the cumulative DVH takes on the appearance of a smooth line graph. The lines always slope and start from top left to bottom right. For a structure receiving a very homogenous dose 100 of the volume receiving exactly 10 Gy for example the cumulative DVH will appear as a horizontal line at the top of the graph, at 100 volume as plotted ... more details

The CSS Financial Aid PROFILE often written as CSS PROFILE , short for the College Scholarship Service Profile, is an application distributed by the College Board in the United States allowing college students to apply for financial aid educational expenses financial aid . It is primarily designed to give private member institutions of the College Board a closer look into the finances of a student and family. It is much more detailed than the FAFSA . The CSS Profile asks questions about the financial status of the student and the student s parents. The information the student gives in the CSS Profile is then sent to college s or university universities that the student specifies. Along with the FAFSA , the CSS Profile is the most common financial aid application that students in the United States fill out. Each CSS Profile costs a fee, varying from year to year. Generally, colleges with early acceptance programs student receives admission decision before the new year use the CSS PROFILE to make preliminary financial aid decisions because the FAFSA is not available until after January 1. Then after student completes the FAFSA the official financial aid application colleges may then make adjustments to their financial aid awards if necessary. For the 2010 11 form the application fee was 9.00 and 16.00 per college submitted. Harvard, Yale, and many other Ivy League institutions require the CSS Profile.

A school profile is a document which must be produced by most maintained school s in England , under the provisions of the Education Act 2005 . The profile replaces the requirement for school governors to produce an annual report to parents. The profile is, in part, pre populated with data provided by the Department for Children, Schools and Families and its agencies, including the Office for Standards in Education . This data includes standard information such as number of pupils and school type, and a summary of school performance in National Curriculum assessment s. In addition, schools and their governors are required to compile sections of the profile in answer to the questions as follows What have been our successes this year? What are we trying to improve? How have our results changed over time? How are we making sure that every child receives teaching to meet their individual needs? How do we make sure our pupils are healthy, safe and well supported? What have we done in response to our Ofsted report? How are we working with parents and the community? Such profiles must be produced by all maintained school s in England, except for maintained nursery school s. Other school types are not required to produce a profile, although may elect to do so. The profile must be produced at least once in each academic year, with an updated profile being published by 31 July each year. Profiles are expected to be published on the SchoolsFinder website operated by the Department for Children, Schools and Families , although as of January 2007 on going technical problems had prohibited this in many cases.

The ProFile could be connected to the built in parallel port of the Lisa, or to a port of an optional dual port parallel interface card. Up to three such interface cards could be installed, so in principle up to seven ProFile drives could be used on a Lisa.
