This work presents a robust approach for fast initialization of an Active Appearance Model for subsequent segmentation of cardiac MRI data. The method automatically determines AAM initialization parameters: position, orientation, and scaling of the model. Four steps are carried out: (1) variance images over time are calculated to find a bounding box that roughly defines the heart region; (2) circle Hough-transformation adapted to gray values is performed to detect the left ventricle; (3)
