Model-Based Esophagus Segmentation from CT Scans Using a Spatial Probability Map
Automatic segmentation of the esophagus from CT data is a challenging problem. Its wall consists of muscle tissue, which has low contrast in CT. Sometimes it is filled with air or...

Actin Filament Segmentation Using Spatiotemporal Active-Surface and Active-Contour Models
Abstract. We introduce a novel algorithm for actin filament segmentation in a 2D TIRFM image sequence. We treat the 2D time-lapse sequence as a 3D image volume and propose an over...
