Multi-Label Simple Points Definition for 3D Images Digital Deformable Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main contribution of this paper is the definition of multilabel simple points that ensures that the partition topology remains invariant during a deformable partition process. The definition is based on simple intervoxel properties and is easy to implement. A deformation process is carried out with a greedy energy minimization algorithm. A discrete area estimator is used to approach at best standard regularizers classically used in continuous energy minimizing methods. The effectiveness of our approach is shown on several 3D image segmentations.

Fully deformable 3D digital partition model with topological control
We propose a purely discrete deformable partition model for segmenting 3D images. Its main ability is to maintain the topology of the partition during the minimization process. To do so, our main contribution is a new definition of multi-label simple points (ML simple point) that is easily computable. An ML simple point can be relabeled without modifying the overall topology of the partition. T...
متن کاملCombining Topological Maps, Multi-Label Simple Points, and Minimum-Length Polygons for Efficient Digital Partition Model
Deformable models have shown great potential for image segmentation. They include discrete models whose combinatorial formulation leads to efficient and sometimes optimal minimization algorithms. In this paper, we propose a new discrete framework to deform any partition while preserving its topology. We show how to combine the use of multilabel simple points, topological maps and minimum-length...
متن کاملMulti-Modality Vertebra Recognition in Arbitrary
Computer-aided diagnosis of spine problems relies on the automatic identification of spine structures in images. The task of automatic vertebra recognition is to identify the global spine and local vertebra structural information such as spine shape, vertebra location and pose. Vertebra recognition is challenging due to the large appearance variations in different image modalities/views and the...
