Medical ultrasound image segmentation using genetic active contour
Image segmentation is one of the earliest and most important stages of image processing and plays an important role in both qualitative and quantitative analysis of medical ultrasound images but ultrasound images have low level of contrast and are corrupted with strong speckle noise. Due to these effects, segmentation of ultrasound images is very challenging and traditional image segmentation m...
متن کاملSegmentation of medical image sequence by parallel active contour.
This paper presents an original approach for detecting and tracking of objects in medical image sequence. We propose a multi-agent system (MAS) based on NetLogo platform for implementing parametric contour active model or snake. In NetLogo, mobile agents (turtles) move over a grid of stationary agents (patches). In our proposed MAS, each mobile agent represents a point of snake (snaxel) and it ...
متن کاملDual Active Contour Models for Medical Image Segmentation
Deformable Models, which includes the popular snake models (Kass et al., 1988) and deformable surfaces (McInerney & Terzopoulos, 1996; Suri & Editors, 2006), are well known techniques for boundary extraction and tracking in 2D/3D images. Basically, these models can be classified into three categories: parametric, geodesic snakes and implicit models. The relationships between these models have b...
متن کاملIntravascular Ultrasound Image using Active Contour Energy Minimization Method
Intravascular Ultrasound Image (IVUS) is one of the medical imaging techniques based on the catheter. These techniques are very useful for studying heart diagnose and management of arterial atherosclerosis. It produces the vessel cross sectional images of blood vessels that provide the quantitative and qualitative assessment of the vascular wall information about the nature of atherosclerosis l...
متن کاملActive-Contour-Based Image Segmentation Using Machine Learning Techniques
We introduce a non-linear shape prior for the deformable model framework that we learn from a set of shape samples using recent manifold learning techniques. We model a category of shapes as a finite dimensional manifold which we approximate using Diffusion maps. Our method computes a Delaunay triangulation of the reduced space, considered as Euclidean, and uses the resulting space partition to...
