Locating and Segmenting 3D Deformable Objects by Using Clusters of Contour Fragments
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new approach to the problem of simultaneous location and segmentation of object in images. The main emphasis is done on the information provided by the contour fragments present in the image. Clusters of contour fragments are created in order to represent the labels defining the different parts of the object. An unordered probabilistic graph is used to model the objects, where a greedy approach using dynamic programming is used to fit the graph model to the labels.

A Hybrid 3D Colon Segmentation Method Using Modified Geometric Deformable Models
Introduction: Nowadays virtual colonoscopy has become a reliable and efficient method of detecting primary stages of colon cancer such as polyp detection. One of the most important and crucial stages of virtual colonoscopy is colon segmentation because an incorrect segmentation may lead to a misdiagnosis. Materials and Methods: In this work, a hybrid method based on Geometric Deformable Models...
متن کاملAn Efficient Combination of 2D and 3D Shape Descriptions for Contour Based Tracking of Moving Objects
Tracking the 2D contour of a moving object has widely been used in the past years. So called active contour models have been proven to be a promising approach to real–time tracking of deformable objects. Also tracking 2D contours, which are projections of rigid 3D objects, is reduced to tracking deformable 2D contours. There, the deformations of the contour are caused by the movement in 3D and ...
متن کاملTexture Segmentation by Statistical Deformable Models
Deformable models have received much popularity due to their ability to include highlevel knowledge about the application domain into the low-level image processing. Still, most proposed models of active contour models do not sufficiently profit from the information from the application and keep themselves too general, leading to non optimal final results of segmentation, tracking or 3D reconst...
متن کاملDiscriminant snakes for 3D reconstruction of anatomical organs
In this work a new statistic deformable model for 3D segmentation of anatomical organs in medical images is proposed. A statistic discriminant snake performs a supervised learning of the object boundary in an image slice to segment the next slice of the image sequence. Each part of the object boundary is projected in a feature space generated by a bank of Gaussian filters. Then, clusters corres...
متن کامل3D Geometric Shape Modeling by ‘3D Contour Cloud’ Reconstruction from Stereo Videos
We present a shape representation for objects based on 3D contour fragments that build a ‘3D Contour Cloud’. Our approach for the automatic reconstruction of such ‘3D Contour Clouds’ from calibrated stereo image sequences includes a novel idea on the reconstruction of 3D contour fragments from stereo frame pairs and a robust Structure and Motion analysis. Moreover, we propose an extension of 2D...
