This work is motivated by the need for visual information extraction and management in the growing field of content based image retrieval from medical archives. In particular it f...
A global parametric shape model (boundary) of the object is optimized according to evidence accumulated from local features and the prior probability of the model parameters learn...
A method is presented for segmentation of anatomical structures that incorporates prior information about shape. The method iteratively applies steps which find object’s border ...
Evaluation of scoliosis is performed traditionally by means of standing posterior-anterior radiographs of the full spine to assess lateral curvature with the Cobb method. In this ...
Abstract. In order to use structural techniques from graph-based pattern recognition, a first necessary step consists in extracting a graph in an automatic way from an image. We pr...
