Thesis




  • To download my thesis `Analysis of Temporal Mammogram Pairs to Detect and Characterise Mass Lesions', which I finished in 2006, press: pdf.
  • The cover is a fractal breast image and was made by Deborah Lee Soltesz .
  • Fractals are patterns that repeat themselves at every scale. Fractals are mathematical structures, but can also be found in nature.

  • For the birth of the twins a had the following birth card with the so-called twin dragon fractal .
