Active Subdivision Surfaces for the Semiautomatic Segmentation of Biomedical Volumes

Michaël Unser, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We present a new family of active surfaces for the semiautomatic segmentation of volumetric objects in 3D biomedical images. We represent our deformable model by a subdivision surface encoded by a small set of control points and generated through a geometr ...

Deforming Tessellations for the Segmentation of Cell Aggregates

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We present a new active contour to segment cell aggregates. We describe it by a smooth tessellation that is attracted toward the cell membranes. Our approach relies on subdivision schemes that are tightly linked to the theory of wavelets. The shape is enco ...

Normal-Based Interpolating Subdivision For The Geometric Representation Of Deformable Models

Michaël Unser, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We review the normal-based interpolating subdivision scheme proposed in [1]. We show that it allows the user to exactly represent circles/spheres whenever suitable initial data are provided, and we also prove that it enjoys the property of similarity invar ...

SUBDIVIDE AND CONQUER Active Contours and Surfaces for Biomedical Image Segmentation

Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Ongoing advances in imaging techniques create new demands regarding the analysis of images in medicine and biology. Image segmentation is a key step of many image analysis pipelines and its proper execution is a particularly challenging task. This thesis i ...

Texture-driven parametric snakes for semi-automatic image segmentation

Michaël Unser, Adrien Raphaël Depeursinge, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We present a texture-driven parametric snake for semi-automatic segmentation of a single and closed structure in an image. We propose a new energy functional that combines intensity and texture information. The two types of image information are balanced u ...

Periodic Splines and Gaussian Processes for the Resolution of Linear Inverse Problems

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

This paper deals with the resolution of inverse problems in a periodic setting or, in other terms, the reconstruction of periodic continuous-domain signals from their noisy measurements. We focus on two reconstruction paradigms: variational and statistical ...

Multiresolution Subdivision Snakes

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We present a new family of snakes that satisfy the property of multiresolution by exploiting subdivision schemes. We show in a generic way how to construct such snakes based on an admissible subdivision mask. We derive the necessary energy formulations and ...

Compactly-Supported Smooth Interpolators for Shape Modeling with Varying Resolution

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Pablo Garcia-Amorena Garcia, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

In applications that involve interactive curve and surface modeling, the intuitive manipulation of shapes is crucial. For instance, user interaction is facilitated if a geometrical object can be manipulated through control points that interpolate the shape ...

A Non-Stationary Subdivision Scheme for the Construction of Deformable Models with Sphere-Like Topology

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

We present an affine-invariant non-stationary subdivision scheme for the recursive refinement of any triangular mesh that is regular or has extraordinary vertices of valence 4. In particular, when applied to an arbitrary convex octahedron, it produces a $ ...

Visualization of hepatic arteries with 3D ultrasound during intra-arterial therapies

Alexandre Bigot, François Michaud, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Liver cancer represents the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The prognosis is poor with an overall mortality of 95%. Moreover, most hepatic tumors are unresectable due to their advanced stage at discovery or poor underlying l ...

An Inner-Product Calculus for Periodic Functions and Curves

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Our motivation is the design of efficient algorithms to process closed curves represented by basis functions or wavelets. To that end, we introduce an inner-product calculus to evaluate correlations and

A Feasability Study of Color Flow Doppler Vectorization for Automated Blood Flow Monitoring

Daniel Sage, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

An ongoing issue in vascular medicine is the measure of the blood flow. Catheterization remains the gold standard measurement method, although non-invasive techniques are an area of intense research. We hereby present a computational method for real-time m ...

Local Refinement for 3D Deformable Parametric Surfaces

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Biomedical image segmentation is an active field of research where deformable models have proved to be efficient. The geometric representation of such models determines their ability to approximate the shape of interest as well as the speed of convergence ...

3D Vascular Path Planning of Chemo-Embolizations Using Segmented Hepatic Arteries from MR Angiography

Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Transcatheter arterial chemo-embolization (TACE) is a therapeutic procedure to treat primary and metastatic liver cancer. It requires prior delineation of the hepatic arteries on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) data and identification of the vessels s ...

Locally Refinable Parametric Snakes

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter, Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Shape segmentation is an active field of research in biomedical imaging. In this context, we present a new parameterization of a snake that is locally refinable. We introduce the possibility of locally increasing the approximation power of the parametric m ...
