Most existing object segmentation algorithms suffer from a so-called under-segmentation problem, where parts of the segmented object are missing and holes often occur inside the ob...
This paper presents a method that combines graphbased segmentation and multistage region merging to segment laparoscopic images. Starting with image preprocessing, including Gauss...
One common way to extend the battery life of a portable device is to reduce the LCD backlight intensity. In contrast to previous approaches that minimize the power consumption by a...
Nonrigid registration of contrast-enhanced MR images is a difficult problem due to the change in pixel intensity caused by the washin and wash-out of the contrast agent. In this pa...
Abstract--Medical image segmentation has become an essential technique in clinical and research-oriented applications. Because manual segmentation methods are tedious, and fully au...
