Contour Tracking by Regional Minimal Cost Path Approach. Application to Cephalometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a regional minimal cost approach without parameters is used for contour tracking with a good robustness. Dynamic programming is exploited for its efficiency. This general method is applied to the extraction of the cranial contour on higth resolution X-Ray image. Ellipse is then fitted on the extracted contour to represent it as a first step for automatic localisation of cephalometric points. This method is tested on 424 X-Ray images, with different acquisition parameters.

متن کاملFuzzy Segmentation of Masses in Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Images based on Dynamic Programming
In this paper we propose a new fuzzy segmentation method to segment lesions in Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) datasets. In the proposed approach we model a contour as a path in the image. The optimal contour is defined as the path associated with a minimal cost, which is derived from the image content. Using this formalism we present several ways to alter this cost in order to extract sever...

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy tracking control approach is proposed for a class of single-inputsingle-output (SISO) nonlinear systems in which the unknown continuous functions may be nonlinearlyparameterized. During the controller design procedure, the fuzzy logic systems (FLS) in Mamdani type are applied to approximate the unknown continuous functions, and then, based on the minimal learnin...

Some new results on our approach 2] of edge integration for shape mod-eling are presented. It enables to nd the global minimum of active contour models' energy between two points. Initialization is made easier and the curve cannot be trapped at a local minimum by spurious edges. We modiied the \snake" energy by including the internal regularization term in the external potential term. Our metho...
