In this work, the segmentation and analysis of the corpus callosum (CC) in autistic MR brain images is carried out using a fuzzy c-means (FCM)-based level set method. Initially, the images are skull-stripped using the geodesic active contour method. The CC is extracted from the skull-stripped images using the FCM-based level set method. FCM clustering forms the initial contour. The evolution of the...
In this work, an attempt has been made to perform asymmetry analysis in breast thermograms using non-linear total variation diffusion filter and reaction diffusion based level set method. Breast images used in this study are obtained from online database of the project PROENG. Initially the images are subjected to total variation (TV) diffusion filter to generate the edge map. Reaction diffusion based...
In this work an attempt has been made to enhance the edges and segment the boundary of intima-media layer of Common Carotid Artery (CCA) using anisotropic diffusion filter and level set method. Ultrasound B mode longitudinal images of normal and abnormal images of common carotid arteries are used in this study. The images are subjected to anisotropic diffusion filter to generate edge map. This edge...
In this work, an attempt has been made to analyze the atrophy of Corpus Callosum (CC) in Alzheimer brain magnetic resonance images using anisotropic diffusion filtering and modified distance regularized level set method. Anisotropic diffusion filtering is used as preprocessing to obtain the edge map. The modified distance regularized level set method is employed to segment CC using this edge map....
Carotid wall analysis using ultrasound image is a challenging task for the diagnosis of cardiovascular pathologies. Intima-Media Thickness (IMT) is the marker of the progression of atheroscelerosis in carotid arteries which leads to stroke. In this paper, an attempt has been made to detect the IMT of far wall, using level set segmentation method based on edge map without re-initialisation. Geometric...
Alzheimer’s disease is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder that causes enlargement of ventricles and shrinkage of whole brain leading to slow progression of dementia. Ventricle enlargement is an important structural biomarker for the diagnosis of AD. Magnetic resonance imaging is a useful non invasive tool which depicts the pathology of brain structures and improves the diagnosis of AD. In this work,...
Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging is an indispensable approach for obtaining the structural information of sub-cortical regions of brain. In this work, fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) is used to segment the sub-cortical regions of brain such as Corpus Callosum (CC) and Brain Stem (BS). The geometrical measure area is calculated from the extracted regions and correlated with the clinical Intelligent Quotient...
Alzheimer's disease is a complex neurological disorder that leads to ventricle enlargement and whole brain shrinkage. In this work, an attempt has been made to segment ventricles in both normal and Alzheimer MR images using Tukey's biweight anisotropic diffusion filtering and modified distance regularized level set method. Geometric features are extracted from the segmented ventricles and analyzed...
In Image processing and computer vision, analyzing and compressing the human motion capture data is a compelling challenge that is a trial with many researchers. For addressing this challenge, the variational level set method is used for segmenting the human motion from experimental motion capture data. First, the Mocap (Motion Capture) data is separated into aligned motion sequences. After that,...
