Principal curve tracing

چکیده
We propose a principal curve tracing algorithm that uses the gradient and the Hessian of a given density estimate. Curve definition requires the local smoothness of data density and is based on the concept of subspace local maxima. Tracing of the curve is handled through the leading eigenvector where fixed-step updates are used. We also propose an image segmentation algorithm based on the original idea and show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm on a Brainbow dataset.

متن کاملPrincipal Curves as Skeletons of Tubular Objects Locally Characterizing the Structures of Axons
Developments in image acquisition technology make high volumes of neuron images available to neuroscientists for analysis. However, manual processing of these images is not practical and is infeasible for larger and larger scale studies. Reliable interpretation and analysis of high volume data requires accurate quantitative measures. This requires analysis algorithms to use mathematical models ...

متن کاملElectrophysiological evidence of enhanced cortical activity in the human brain during visual curve tracing
ERPs were recorded while participants performed a curve tracing task in which they had to identify the end point of a target curve presented among three other distractor curves. Differential activation associated with the side of the target curve was found in the form of a sustained posterior contralateral negativity (SPCN). This contralateral brain activity suggests covert attention was deploy...
متن کاملVelocity Modeling in a Vertical Transversely Isotropic Medium Using Zelt Method
In the present paper, the Zelt algorithm has been extended for ray tracing through an anisotropic model. In anisotropic media, the direction of the propagated energy generally differs from that of the plane-wave propagation. This makes velocity values to be varied in different directions. Therefore, velocity modeling in such media is completely different from that in an isotropic media. The vel...
