Dynamical Statistical Shape Priors for Level Set Based Sequence Segmentation
In recent years, researchers have proposed to introduce statistical shape knowledge into the level set method in order to cope with insufficient low-level information. While these priors were shown to drastically improve the segmentation of images or image sequences, so far the focus has been on statistical shape priors that are time-invariant. Yet, in the context of tracking deformable objects...
متن کاملA Pseudo-distance for Shape Priors in Level Set Segmentation
We study the question of integrating prior shape knowledge into level set based segmentation methods. In particular, we investigate dissimilarity measures for shapes encoded by the signed distance function. We consider extensions and improvements of existing measures. As a result, we propose a novel dissimilarity measure which constitutes a pseudo-distance. Compared to alternative approaches, t...
متن کاملShape Priors for Level Set Representations
Level Set Representations, the pioneering framework introduced by Osher and Sethian [14] is the most common choice for the implementation of variational frameworks in Computer Vision since it is implicit, intrinsic, parameter and topology free. However, many Computer vision applications refer to entities with physical meanings that follow a shape form with a certain degree of variability. In th...
متن کاملShape and appearance priors for level set-based left ventricle segmentation
The authors propose a novel spatiotemporal constraint based on shape and appearance and combine it with a level-set deformable model for left ventricle (LV) segmentation in four-dimensional gated cardiac SPECT, particularly in the presence of perfusion defects. The model incorporates appearance and shape information into a ‘soft-to-hard’ probabilistic constraint, and utilises spatiotemporal reg...
متن کاملEfficient Kernel Density Estimation of Shape and Intensity Priors for Level Set Segmentation
We propose a nonlinear statistical shape model for level set segmentation which can be efficiently implemented. Given a set of training shapes, we perform a kernel density estimation in the low dimensional subspace spanned by the training shapes. In this way, we are able to combine an accurate model of the statistical shape distribution with efficient optimization in a finite-dimensional subspa...
