In this paper we present a new interactive method for tubular structure extraction. The main application and motivation for this work is vessel tracking in 3D medical images. The ...
Simultaneous registration and segmentation (SRS) provides a powerful framework for tracking an object of interest in an image sequence. The state-of-the-art SRSbased tracking meth...
—In this paper, we present a new model for deformations of shapes. A pseudolikelihood is based on the statistical distribution of the gradient vector field of the gray level. The...
We introduce a new paradigm for automatic medical image analysis that adopts concepts from the field of Artificial Life. Our approach prescribes deformable organisms, autonomous ag...
