A statistical variational framework is proposed for the fetus and uterus segmentation in ultrasound images. The Rayleigh and exponential distributions are used to model the pixel ...
— Successful biological image analysis usually requires satisfactory segmentations to identify regions of interest as an intermediate step. Here we present a novel graphical mode...
