    摘要: A method and system for up-vector detection for ribs in a 3D medical image volume, such as a computed tomography (CT) volume is disclosed. A rib centerline of at least one rib is extracted in a 3D medical image volume. An up-vector is automatically detected at each of a plurality of centerline points of the rib centerline of the at least one rib. The up-vector at each centerline point can be detected using a trained regression function. Alternatively, the up-vector at each centerline point can be detected by detecting an ellipse shape in a cross-sectional rib image generated at each centerline point.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for training a landmark detector receives training data which includes a plurality of positive training bags, each including a plurality of positively annotated instances, and a plurality of negative training bags, each including at least one negatively annotated instance. Classification function is initialized by training a first weak classifier based on the positive training bags and the negative training bags. All training instances are evaluated using the classification function. For each of a plurality of remaining classifiers, a cost value gradient is calculated based on spatial context information of each instance in each positive bag evaluated by the classification function. A gradient value associated with each of the remaining weak classifiers is calculated based on the cost value gradients, and a weak classifier is selected which has a lowest associated gradient value and given a weighting parameter and added to the classification function.
