    摘要: A method and system for image segmentation by evolving radial basis functions (RBFs) is disclosed. A set of RBFs define a contour on an image. The contour is the zero level set of an implicit function defined by the RBFs. The RBFs are weighted and parameterized by multiple parameters, such as center point, standard deviation, and orientation. The contour is iteratively deformed by updating the weight and each of the parameters of each of the RBFs based on each pixel of the contour, until the contour converges. The parameters and the weight of each RBF is updated using coupled set of differential equations derived based from a region-based or boundary-based image segmentation energy formulation. The final contour at a convergence defines boundaries of a target object or region in the image.

    摘要: A method for three dimensional image segmentation of a volume of interest includes providing a three dimensional image of the volume of interest, providing an initial polyhedron having a plurality of mesh vertices within the three dimension image and determining an image-based speed at each vertex of the polyhedron using an ordinary differential equation (ODE) that describes the vertex motion of the polyhedron. The method further includes determining a regularization term at each vertex of the polyhedron, updating the plurality of mesh vertices of the polyhedron, integrating the image-based speed of each vertex over a face of the polyhedron, and determining an output polyhedron approximating a shape of the volume of interest.

    摘要: A system and method for feature detection in ultrasound images is disclosed. The method estimates speckle distributions in windows on opposing sides of a pixel of an ultrasound image. The divergence is calculated for the pixel between the estimated speckle distributions in the windows. These steps are performed for each pixel in the ultrasound image, and a feature map is generated based on the divergence calculated between the estimated speckle distributions for each pixel.

    摘要: A method and system for side detection of an undetailed 3D ear impression is disclosed. In order to determine whether a received 3D undetailed ear impression is a left or right ear impression, a local coordinate system of the 3D undetailed ear is defined based on side independent features of the 3D undetailed ear impression. A skeleton (or center spline) of the 3D undetailed ear impression is detected, and it is determined whether the 3D undetailed ear impression is a left or right ear impression based on the skeleton and the local coordinate system.

    摘要: A method and system for suppressing bone structures based on a single x-ray image is disclosed. The bone structure suppressing method predicts a soft-tissue image without bone structures from an input x-ray image. A set of features is extracted for each pixel of the input x-ray image. A soft-tissue image is then generated from the input x-ray image using a trained regression function to determine an intensity value for the soft-tissue image corresponding to each pixel of the input x-ray image based on the set of features extracted for each pixel of the input x-ray image. The extracted features can be wavelet features and the regression function can be trained using Bayesian Committee Machine (BCM) to approximate Gaussian process regression (GPR).
