Embedding Diffusion in Variational Bayes: a Technique for Segmenting Images
In this paper, we discuss how image segmentation can be handled by using Bayesian learning and inference. In particular variational techniques relying on free energy minimization will be introduced. It will be shown how to embed a spatial diffusion process on segmentation labels within the Variational Bayes learning procedure so as to enforce spatial constraints among labels.
متن کاملSegmenting Fiber Bundles in Diffusion Tensor Images
We consider the problem of segmenting fiber bundles in diffusion tensor images. We cast this problem as a manifold clustering problem in which different fiber bundles correspond to different submanifolds of the space of diffusion tensors. We first learn a local representation of the diffusion tensor data using a generalization of the locally linear embedding (LLE) algorithm from Euclidean to di...
متن کاملAn Entropy Based Technique for Information Embedding in Images
Many information hiding techniques have recently been analyzed as they could help manage part of the digital rights. Among the general framework of information hiding, the focus has been put on steganography and on watermarking techniques. This paper proposes an entropy based technique for data embedding in images with a specific target, sometimes referred to as feature location: inclusion of a...
متن کاملA New Variational Model for Segmenting Objects of Interest from Color Images
We propose a new variational model for segmenting objects of interest from color images. This model is inspired by the geodesic active contour model, the region-scalable fitting model, the weighted bounded variation model and the active contour models based on the Mumford-Shah model. In order to segment desired objects in color images, the energy functional in our model includes a discriminatio...
متن کاملA Cross-Sectional Piecewise Constant Model for Segmenting Highly Curved Fiber Tracts in Diffusion MR Images
We propose a cross-sectional piecewise constant model for the segmentation of highly curved fiber tracts in diffusion MRI scans. An "anchor curve", obtained via tractography, provides the overall shape of the tract and allows us to examine the tract's microstructure at the level of cross-sectional planes normal to the curve. Each cross-section is modeled as a piecewise constant image, allowing ...
