Learning to Segment Neurons with Non-local Quality Measures
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Segmentation schemes such as hierarchical region merging or correllation clustering rely on edge weights between adjacent (super-)voxels. ...
This ignores that a few local mistakes (tiny boundary gaps) can cause catastrophic global segmentation errors. ...

A Randomized Ensemble Approach to Industrial CT Segmentation
2015
2015 IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV)
Tuning the models and parameters of common segmentation approaches is challenging especially in the presence of noise and artifacts. ...
We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach using a set of noise and artifact rich CT images from baggage security and show that it significantly outperforms existing solutions in this area. ...
Instead, we introduce a new ensemble based segmentation framework that uses a simple bottom-up hierarchical segmentation with a randomized merge order to create multiple hypotheses, similar to the approach ...

Scene analysis with structural prototypes for content-based image retrieval in medicine
2008
Medical Imaging 2008: Image Processing
The content of medical images can often be described as a composition of relevant objects with distinct relationships. ...
As new image content is represented by hierarchical attributed region adjacency graphs (HARAGs) which are obtained by region-growing, the task of object or scene identification corresponds to the problem ...
