Learning Separable Filters

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Roberto Rigamonti, Bugra Tekin, Amos Sironi

Learning filters to produce sparse image representations in terms of overcomplete dictionaries has emerged as a powerful way to create image features for many different purposes. Unfortunately, these filters are usually both numerous and non-separable, mak ...

Multiscale Centerline Detection by Learning a Scale-Space Distance Transform

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Amos Sironi

We propose a robust and accurate method to extract the centerlines and scale of tubular structures in 2D images and 3D volumes. Existing techniques rely either on filters designed to respond to ideal cylindrical structures, which lose accuracy when the lin ...
