Continuum topological derivative - A novel application tool for segmentation of CT and MRI images by Viswanath Muthukrishnan, Sandeep Jaipurkar, Nedumaran Damodaran

“…Following this, segmentation of the region of interest was performed using the CTD technique, with comparisons made against Discrete Topological Derivatives (DTD), k-mean clustering and Adaptive Threshold methods. Evaluation of the proposed CTD algorithm's effectiveness in segmentation involved calculating performance metrics such as Jaccard and dice indices to assess spatial overlap of segmented images. …”

Exhibiting the Extractive: Bitumen in Fort McMurray by Elysia French

“…To do so, I recount my own experience with tar sands tourism in Fort McMurray, framing Suncor’s industrial tourism as a curation of the physical experience of extractive sites, while connecting this to the visual tactics employed at the Centre. In the article, I emphasize how an established visual language, rooted in settler-colonial and extractive-capitalist practices, is adapted to maintain and advance the industrial operations and development of the tar sands. …”
