In this work we present a method of automatic segmentation of defective skulls for custom cranial implant design and 3D printing purposes. Since such tissue models are usually required in patient cases with complex anatomical defects and…

Purpose: Conventional automated segmentation of the head anatomy in MRI distinguishes different brain and non-brain tissues based on image intensities and prior tissue probability maps (TPM). This works well for normal head anatomies, but…

General skinning techniques aim to deform the surface of an articulated model following the pose change of a skeleton. Their rapidity makes them ideal tools for real-time animation purposes. However, popular skinning algorithms are simple,…

We propose a minimal path method to simultaneously compute segmentation masks and extract centerlines of tubular structures with line-topology. Minimal path methods are commonly used for the segmentation of tubular structures in a wide…

We present a new and general framework for convolutional neural network operations on spherical (or omnidirectional) images. Our approach represents the surface as a graph of connected points that doesn't rely on a particular sampling…

Detecting and segmenting human skin regions in digital images is an intensively explored topic of computer vision with a variety of approaches proposed over the years that have been found useful in numerous practical applications. The first…

Neural circuits can be reconstructed from brain images acquired by serial section electron microscopy. Image analysis has been performed by manual labor for half a century, and efforts at automation date back almost as far. Convolutional…

Like other applications in computer vision, medical image segmentation has been most successfully addressed using deep learning models that rely on the convolution operation as their main building block. Convolutions enjoy important…

A skeleton representation of the human body has been proven to be effective for this task. The skeletons are presented in graphs form-like. However, the topology of a graph is not structured like Euclidean-based data. Therefore, a new set…

Training a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for semantic segmentation typically requires to collect a large amount of accurate pixel-level annotations, a hard and expensive task. In contrast, simple image tags are easier to gather. With…

Curvilinear structure segmentation is important in medical imaging, quantifying structures such as vessels, airways, neurons, or organ boundaries in 2D slices. Segmentation via pixel-wise classification often fails to capture the small and…

X-Ray image enhancement, along with many other medical image processing applications, requires the segmentation of images into bone, soft tissue, and open beam regions. We apply a machine learning approach to this problem, presenting an…
