I don't see much value in this unless the images are maintained with the papers by the publisher. Anything else would tend to suffer as authors change universities or jobs and web sites come and go. The Acoustical Society of America had a publication: Acoustics Research Letters Online that included hyper-linked multimedia content. They are no longer accepting submissions but the content is still accessible. I don't know of any other examples, which is why I asked. I'd like to see that kind of thing as standard. Dale B.

The article displays the full image to show the removal of large objects from the image. That can't be done at a pixel by pixel level. It may have been the authors choice as the more useful scale to present. I took the time to go to the authors web site and found a video, presented at a conference, providing more detail. I provided the reference. This was dismissed without viewing as "this shows slimy advertising expertise". At this point, the references to a specific article seem to be more a matter of commercial jealousy than technical consideration. Dale B. Dalrymple

You are a liar because I never implied that medical images were "comic" and you know it. 2. Your suggestion that I put as much care and effort in writing for this forum as in writing a technical paper is ridiculous and you know it. I have authored plenty of papers in signal processing which you can properly criticize for usefulness and technical writing skill; just google "S.A.Ruzinsky" . 3. You often use debating tactics typical of lawyers and politicians that are unsuitable for any technical arena, including this forum. That also indicates that you are morally corrupt.

Do you remember the cold fusion debacle? Wouldn't it have been nice if anyone with kitchen utensils could have un-verified those results? Why would anyone want image processing to be less verifiable? The answer is for selfish, immoral interest.

The publishers could package image DVDs with hard prints. Even without this, the improvement over current practice is still large in terms of benefit to society.

They are methods that are used to separate discussions from flames and trolls. This is a Usenet group.

Some do. The authors who don't either haven't considered the potential benefit to society of providing full sized images, or they have.

Thus, I, with consistency and reasonable backup, have shown that you are both a liar and a hypocrite.

Now, I, with consistency and reasonable backup, have boldly claimed you to be a liar and a hypocrite.
