MR images of the fetus allow non-invasive analysis of the fetal brain. Quantitative analysis of fetal brain development requires automatic brain tissue segmentation that is typically preceded by segmentation of the intracranial volume…
Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used non-invasive medical imaging technique for disease diagnosis. The diagnostic accuracy is often affected by image resolution, which can be insufficient in practice. For medical CT images, the…
Cone Beam CT (CBCT) is an essential imaging modality nowadays, but the image quality of CBCT still lags behind the high quality standards established by the conventional Computed Tomography. We propose LIRE+, a learned iterative scheme for…
Aesthetic assessment is subjective, and the distribution of the aesthetic levels is imbalanced. In order to realize the auto-assessment of photo aesthetics, we focus on retraining the CNN-based aesthetic assessment model by dropping out the…
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used in interventional surgeries and radiation oncology. Due to the limited size of flat-panel detectors, anatomical structures might be missing outside the limited field-of-view (FOV), which…
The Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) technique is applied to the measurement of sheet conductance maps of both uniform and patterned conductive thin films. Images of the sheet conductance spatial distribution, and local conductivity…
Computer-aided surgical systems commonly use preoperative CT scans when performing pelvic osteotomies for intraoperative navigation. These systems have the potential to improve the safety and accuracy of pelvic osteotomies, however,…
Automated and accurate segmentation of cystoid structures in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is of interest in the early detection of retinal diseases. It is, however, a challenging task. We propose a novel method for localizing cysts in…
Road curb detection is important for autonomous driving. It can be used to determine road boundaries to constrain vehicles on roads, so that potential accidents could be avoided. Most of the current methods detect road curbs online using…
The accurate segmentation of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) images holds substantial clinical value for the early detection and treatment of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). The Transformer, utilizing a self-attention…
Texture is intuitively defined as a repeated arrangement of a basic pattern or object in an image. There is no mathematical definition of a texture though. The human visual system is able to identify and segment different textures in a…
Precise alignment of the electron beam is critical for successful application of scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEM) to understanding materials at atomic level. Despite the success of aberration correctors, aberration…
