چکیده

In this paper, a close-form B-snake model is presented for contour extraction in medical images. Based on our previous research work [lo], the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been applied to our B-snake model, in order to use available statistical information about the desired object shape. This approach allows the deformation of B-snake to synthesize the shape similar to those in the training set. Experimental results show the robustness and accurateness of proposed model in object contour extraction in medical images.

A B-snake model using statistical and geometric information-applications to medical images

A B-snake model using statistics information for segmenting 2D objects from medical images is presented in this paper. Based on our previous research work[10], a statistical model is proposed for our B-snake model, in order to use available priori knowledge about the object shape being studied. This method allows the deformation of B-snake to be influenced primarily by the most reliable matches...

Structure-adaptive B-snake for segmenting complex objects

In this paper, we presented a structure-adaptive B-snake model for segmenting the complex structures in medical images. A strategy of automatic control-point insertion, adaptive to the structure of the studied object, has been proposed. Furthermore, a method of &mum mean square energy (MMSE) is developed to iteratively estimate the position of those control points in the B-snake model. By apply...

Boundary Extraction Using Region-Based GVF Snake Model

Traditional GVF snake model has enlarged capture range and improved the convergence capability for boundary concavities, but it cannot efficiently solve the convergence problem for an image with deep boundary concavities and high noise. In this paper, by integrating the region force derived from the region information of interested object in an image into the force balance equation, a novel sna...
