El éxito en la búsqueda de conocimiento a partir de grandes cantidades de datos radica en la calidad de los mismos. Hasta ahora los aspectos de calidad de los datos se han enfocado principalmente a la limpieza de los datos:…

We present a new algorithm to process captured images of reflected Placido rings. Up to our knowledge, conventional topographers transform from Cartesian to polar coordinates and vice-versa, thus extrapolating corneal data and introducing noise and image artefacts. Moreover, captured data…
