Median filtering is a cornerstone of computational image processing. It provides an effective means of image smoothing, with minimal blurring or softening of edges, invariance to monotonic transformations such as gamma adjustment, and…

Characterizing blood vessels in digital images is important for the diagnosis of many types of diseases as well as for assisting current researches regarding vascular systems. The automated analysis of blood vessels typically requires the…

Retinal blood vessel segmentation can extract clinically relevant information from fundus images. As manual tracing is cumbersome, algorithms based on Convolution Neural Networks have been developed. Such studies have used small publicly…

A manual measurement of blood vessels diameter is a conventional component of routine visual assessment of microcirculation, say, during optical capillaroscopy. However, many modern optical methods for blood flow measurements demand the…

Pulmonary vessel segmentation is important for clinical diagnosis of pulmonary diseases, while is also challenging due to the complicated structure. In this work, we present an effective framework and refinement process of pulmonary vessel…

The standard non-invasive imaging technique used to assess the severity and extent of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA). However, manual grading of each patient's CCTA according to the…

Valve annuli motion and morphology, measured from non-invasive imaging, can be used to gain a better understanding of healthy and pathological heart function. Measurements such as long-axis strain as well as peak strain rates provide…

Blood vessel segmentation and -tracing are essential tasks in many medical imaging applications. Although numerous methods exist, the prevailing segment-then-fix paradigm is fundamentally limited regarding its suitability for modeling the…

Face detection and alignment in unconstrained environment is always deployed on edge devices which have limited memory storage and low computing power. This paper proposes a one-stage method named CenterFace to simultaneously predict facial…

In this paper we deal with contour detection based on the recent image analogy principle which has been successfully used for super-resolution, texture and curves synthesis and interactive editing. Hand-drawn outlines are initially as…
