    摘要: In a method of determining whether an image of an eye is in focus a set of pixels is selected along a line passing through the pupil/iris boundary such that the set contains at least 5 iris portion pixels and at least 5 pupil portion pixels. Statistical values, preferably median values, are computed for all iris pixels in the selected set and for all pupil pixels in the selected set. The step size between the iris pixels and the pupil pixels is computed and absolute gradient values are computed for each pixel. The pixel having a largest absolute gradient value is excluded and an average of the absolute gradient values of the remaining pixels is found. If that average divided by the step size is greater than 0.5 the image is in focus and can be used for identifying a subject whose eye is in the image using iris identification techniques.

    摘要: Described herein is a framework for automatically classifying a structure in digital image data are described herein. In one implementation, a first set of features is extracted from digital image data, and used to learn a discriminative model. The discriminative model may be associated with at least one conditional probability of a class label given an image data observation Based on the conditional probability, at least one likelihood measure of the structure co-occurring with another structure in the same sub-volume of the digital image data is determined. A second set of features may then be extracted from the likelihood measure.

    摘要: A method for computer aided detection of anatomical abnormalities in medical images includes providing a plurality of abnormality candidates and features of said abnormality candidates, and classifying said abnormality candidates as true positives or false positives using a hierarchical cascade of linear classifiers of the form sign(wTx+b), wherein x is a feature vector, w is a weighting vector and b is a model parameter, wherein different weights are used to penalize false negatives and false positives, and wherein more complex features are used for each successive stage of said cascade of classifiers.

    摘要: A reliable method of illuminating and imaging an eye through eyeglasses uses a monochromatic light source with the smallest possible source area, a camera with an imager that exhibits minimal blooming, and a narrow-bandwidth optical bandpass filter to filter out most of the ambient illumination while passing most of the light from the system's own illuminator. In an alternative embodiment, a partially-transparent mirror is used to make the light source appear to be on the optical axis of the camera as viewed from the subject's eye.

    摘要: Described herein is a framework for multi-view matching of regions of interest in images. According to one aspect, a processor receives first and second digitized images, as well as at least one CAD finding corresponding to a detected region of interest in the first image. The processor determines at least one candidate location in the second image that matches the CAD finding in the first image. The matching is performed based on local appearance features extracted for the CAD finding and the candidate location. In accordance with another aspect, the processor receives digitized training images representative of at least first and second views of one or more regions of interest. Feature selection is performed based on the training images to select a subset of relevant local appearance features to represent instances in the first and second views. A distance metric is then learned based on the subset of local appearance features. The distance metric may be used to perform matching of the regions of interest.
