Energy spectroscopy. For energy analysis the output current pulse from a PMT [photomultiplier tube] or from a semiconductor detector is often applied to a charge-sensitive preamplifier. The preamplifier produces a voltage pulse with a peak amplitude that is proportional to the total charge in the current pulse, which is proportional to the energy absorbed from the incident radiation. Amplifiers and filters are used to expand the range of the peak amplitude and to shape the signal from the preamplifier, a process that maximizes the signal-to-noise ratio for the system. For energy analysis the peak amplitude of the shaped pulse represents the information of interest. Discriminators and single-channel analyzers(SCA) can be used, following the signal shaping system, to determine the presence of certain energies of detected radiation. A discriminator produces an output logic pulse if it's input signal exceeds a preset threshold level. An SCA produces an output logic pulse if the peak amplitude of it's input signal falls within the energy window that is established with two preset threshold levels. 1, record 2, English, - energy%20spectroscopy

La convolution est utilisée dans le traitement d'image et plus particulièrement dans les applications de vision assistée par ordinateur. Elle aboutit, par exemple, à un renforcement des contours, à un lissage ou encore à la disparition de points parasites. La convolution consiste alors à modifier, à l'aide d'un algorithme spécifique, les caractéristiques d'un pixel (élément de base d'une image) en s'appuyant sur les pixels voisins. 3, record 3, French, - convolution

El tratamiento de imágenes más empleado y conocido, es el tratamiento espacial también conocido como convolución. Las convoluciones discretas son muy usadas en el procesado de imagen para el suavizado de imágenes, el afilado de imágenes, detección de bordes, y otros efectos. Mediante este proceso se calcula el valor de un determinado punto en función de su valor y del valor de los puntos que le rodean, aplicando una simple operación matemática en función de la cual se obtendrá un valor resultante para el punto en cuestión. 1, record 3, Spanish, - convoluci%C3%B3n
