Non-linear Local Registration of Functional Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Within the scope of three-dimensional brain imaging we propose an inter-individual fusion scheme to register functional activations relatively to anatomical cortical structures, the sulci. This approach is local and non-linear. It relies on a statistical sulci shape model accounting for the inter-individual variability of a population of subjects, and providing deformation modes relatively to a reference shape (a mean sulcus). The deformation field obtained between a given sulcus and the reference sulcus is extended to a neighborhood of the given sulcus by using the thin-plate spline interpolation. It is then applied to the functional activations associated with this sulcus. This approach is compared with other classical matching methods.

متن کاملProviding comprehensive control chart for monitoring of linear and nonlinear profiles using functional data analysis.
Considering profiles as functional variables, two control charts are proposed for their monitoring in phase II. Due to its conformity with the nature of real-world profiles, applying functional model leads to proposed control charts obtained through functional data analysis techniques with desired features. These include simplicity in calculation and possibility of using them for different prof...
متن کاملNew Pseudo-CT Generation Approach from Magnetic Resonance Imaging using a Local Texture Descriptor
Background: One of the challenges of PET/MRI combined systems is to derive an attenuation map to correct the PET image. For that, the pseudo-CT image could be used to correct the attenuation. Until now, most existing scientific researches construct this pseudo-CT image using the registration techniques. However, these techniques suffer from the local minima of the non-rigid deformation energy f...
متن کاملLocal landmark alignment for high-resolution fMRI group studies: toward a fine cortical investigation of hand movements in human.
Converging evidence conclusively demonstrates the robust relationship between anatomical landmarks and underlying functional organization in primary cortical regions. In consequence, a precise alignment across subjects of such specific individual landmarks should improve the overlap of the corresponding functional areas and thus the detection of active clusters at the group level. In an effort ...
متن کاملComparison of The LBM With the Modified Local Crank-Nicolson Method Solution of Transient Two-Dimensional Non-Linear Burgers Equation
Burgers equation is a simplified form of the Navier-Stokes equation that represents the non-linear features of it. In this paper, the transient two-dimensional non-linear Burgers equation is solved using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). The results are compared with the Modified Local Crank-Nicolson method (MLCN) and exact solutions. The LBM has been emerged as a new numerical method for sol...
