Human face is a 3D object with shape and surface texture. 3D Morphable Model (3DMM) is a powerful tool for reconstructing the 3D face from a single 2D face image. In the shape fitting process, 3DMM estimates the correspondence between 2D…

Automated landmark detection offers an efficient approach for medical professionals to understand patient anatomic structure and positioning using intra-operative imaging. While current detection methods for pelvic fluoroscopy demonstrate…

Dense surface registration of three-dimensional (3D) human facial images holds great potential for studies of human trait diversity, disease genetics, and forensics. Non-rigid registration is particularly useful for establishing dense…

Accurately segmenting teeth and identifying the corresponding anatomical landmarks on dental mesh models are essential in computer-aided orthodontic treatment. Manually performing these two tasks is time-consuming, tedious, and, more…

Intra-operative 2D-3D registration of X-ray images with pre-operatively acquired CT scans is a crucial procedure in orthopedic surgeries. Anatomical landmarks pre-annotated in the CT volume can be detected in X-ray images to establish 2D-3D…

In medical imaging, surface registration is extensively used for performing systematic comparisons between anatomical structures, with a prime example being the highly convoluted brain cortical surfaces. To obtain a meaningful registration,…

Brightfield and fluorescent imaging of whole brain sections are funda- mental tools of research in mouse brain study. As sectioning and imaging become more efficient, there is an increasing need to automate the post-processing of sec- tions…

Anatomical landmark correspondences in medical images can provide additional guidance information for the alignment of two images, which, in turn, is crucial for many medical applications. However, manual landmark annotation is…

Camera localization methods based on retrieval, local feature matching, and 3D structure-based pose estimation are accurate but require high storage, are slow, and are not privacy-preserving. A method based on scene landmark detection (SLD)…

We show how a simple convolutional neural network (CNN) can be trained to accurately and robustly regress 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF) 3D head pose, directly from image intensities. We further explain how this FacePoseNet (FPN) can be used…

Deep learning approaches have achieved state-of-the-art performance in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) image segmentation. However, most approaches have focused on learning image intensity features for segmentation, whereas the…

We propose a multi-stage coarse-to-fine CNN-based framework, called SkullEngine, for high-resolution segmentation and large-scale landmark detection through a collaborative, integrated, and scalable JSD model and three segmentation and…

Colonoscopy is a standard imaging tool for visualizing the entire gastrointestinal (GI) tract of patients to capture lesion areas. However, it takes the clinicians excessive time to review a large number of images extracted from colonoscopy…

Vertebral landmark localization is a crucial step for variant spine-related clinical applications, which requires detecting the corner points of 17 vertebrae. However, the neighbor landmarks often disturb each other for the homogeneous…

We propose a novel landmarks-assisted collaborative end-to-end deep framework for automatic 4D FER. Using 4D face scan data, we calculate its various geometrical images, and afterwards use rank pooling to generate their dynamic images…

Facial landmarks are highly correlated with each other since a certain landmark can be estimated by its neighboring landmarks. Most of the existing deep learning methods only use one fully-connected layer called shape prediction layer to…

Landmark detection algorithms trained on high resolution images perform poorly on datasets containing low resolution images. This deters the performance of algorithms relying on quality landmarks, for example, face recognition. To the best…

With the mushrooming use of computed tomography (CT) images in clinical decision making, management of CT data becomes increasingly difficult. From the patient identification perspective, using the standard DICOM tag to track patient…

As an important upstream task for many medical applications, supervised landmark localization still requires non-negligible annotation costs to achieve desirable performance. Besides, due to cumbersome collection procedures, the limited…

We present an efficient neural network method for locating anatomical landmarks in 3D medical CT scans, using atlas location autocontext in order to learn long-range spatial context. Location predictions are made by regression to Gaussian…
