BACKGROUND: The segmentation of the cortical interface between grey and white matter in magnetic resonance images (MRI) is highly challenging during the first post-natal year.First, the heterogeneous brain maturation creates important intensity fluctuations across regions.Second, the cortical ribbon is highly folded creating complex shapes.Finally,
The statistics of ice-ridging signatures were studied using high-resolution (1.25 m) and medium-resolution (20 m) SAR images over the Baltic Sea ice cover, acquired in 2016 and 2011, respectively.Ice surface profiles measured by the 2011 airborne campaign were used as validation data.The images did not delineate well the individual ridges as linear
