Cross Entropy: A New Solver for Markov Random Field Modeling and Applications to Medical Image Segmentation
This paper introduces a novel solver, namely cross entropy (CE), into the MRF theory for medical image segmentation. The solver, which is based on the theory of rare event simulati...

Fast and Simple Calculus on Tensors in the Log-Euclidean Framework
Computations on tensors have become common with the use of DT-MRI. But the classical Euclidean framework has many defects, and affine-invariant Riemannian metrics have been propose...

Adaptive Subdivision for Hierarchical Non-rigid Registration of Multi-modal Images Using Mutual Information
In this paper we present an enhanced method for non-rigid registration of volumetric multi-modal images using Mutual Information (MI). Based on a hierarchical subdivision scheme, t...

Interpolation Artefacts in Non-rigid Registration
Voxel based non-rigid registration of images involves finding a similarity maximising transformation that deforms a source image to the coordinate system of a target image. In orde...
