  text: Segmentation is the process of partitioning digital images into meaningful
    regions. The analysis of biological high content images often requires segmentation
    as a first step. We propose ilastik as an easy-to-use tool which allows the user
    without expertise in image processing to perform segmentation and classification
    in a unified way. ilastik learns from labels provided by the user through a convenient
    mouse interface. Based on these labels, ilastik infers a problem specific segmentation.
    A random forest classifier is used in the learning step, in which each pixel's
    neighborhood is characterized by a set of generic (nonlinear) features. ilastik
    supports up to three spatial plus one spectral dimension and makes use of all
    dimensions in the feature calculation. ilastik provides realtime feedback that
    enables the user to interactively refine the segmentation result and hence further
    fine-tune the classifier. An uncertainty measure guides the user to ambiguous
    regions in the images. Real time performance is achieved by multi-threading which
    fully exploits the capabilities of modern multi-core machines. Once a classifier
    has been trained on a set of representative images, it can be exported and used
    to automatically process a very large number of images (e.g. using the CellProfiler
    pipeline). ilastik is an open source project and released under the BSD license
    at www.ilastik.org.

  text: 'This chapter tackles a difficult challenge: presenting signal processing
    material to non-experts. This chapter is meant to be comprehensible to people
    who have some math background, including a course in linear algebra and basic
    statistics, but do not specialize in mathematics, engineering, or related fields.
    Some formulas assume the reader is familiar with matrices and basic matrix operations,
    but not more advanced material. Furthermore, we tried to make the chapter readable
    even if you skip the formulas. Nevertheless, we include some simple methods to
    demonstrate the basics of adaptive data processing, then we proceed with some
    advanced methods that are fundamental in adaptive signal processing, and are likely
    to be useful in a variety of applications. The advanced algorithms are also online
    available [30]. In the second part, these techniques are applied to some real-world
    BCI data.'

abstract:

  text: Integrin- and cadherin-mediated adhesion is central for cell and tissue morphogenesis,
    allowing cells and tissues to change shape without loosing integrity. Studies
    predominantly in cell culture showed that mechanosensation through adhesion structures
    is achieved by force-mediated modulation of their molecular composition. The specific
    molecular composition of adhesion sites in turn determines their signalling activity
    and dynamic reorganization. Here, we will review how adhesion sites respond to
    mecanical stimuli, and how spatially and temporally regulated signalling from
    different adhesion sites controls cell migration and tissue morphogenesis.
