    摘要: A method and system for regression-based object detection in medical images is disclosed. A regression function for predicting a location of an object in a medical image based on an image patch is trained using image-based boosting ridge regression (IBRR). The trained regression function is used to determine a difference vector based on an image patch of a medical image. The difference vector represents the difference between the location of the image patch and the location of a target object. The location of the target object in the medical image is predicted based on the difference vector determined by the regression function.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a method for populating a database with a set of images of an anatomical structure. The database is used to perform appearance matching in image pairs of the anatomical structure. A set of image pairs of anatomical structures is received, where each image pair is annotated with a plurality of location-sensitive regions that identify a particular aspect of the anatomical structure. Weak learners are iteratively selected and an image patch is identified. A boosting process is used to identify a strong classifier based on responses to the weak learners applied to the identified image patch for each image pair. The responses comprise a feature response and a location response associated with the image patch. Positive and negative image pairs are generated. The positive and negative image pairs are used to learn a similarity function. The learned similarity function and iteratively selected weak learners are stored in the database.

    摘要: A system and method for identifying a shape of an anatomical structure in an input image is disclosed. An input image is received and warped using a set of warping templates resulting in a set of warped images. An integral image is calculated for each warped image. Selected features are extracted based on the integral image. A boosted feature score is calculated for the combined selected features for each warped image. The warped images are ranked based on the boosted feature scores. A predetermined number of warped images are selected that have the largest feature scores. Each selected warped image is associated with its corresponding warping template. The corresponding warping templates are associated with stored shape models. The shape of the input image is identified based on the weighted average of the shapes models.
