Les hyperintensités de la substance blanche (HSB) sont de plus en plus prises en compte dans le suivi clinique des personnes âgées et/ou des patients atteints de démences, et sont cruciales chez les patients atteints de Sclérose en Plaques (SEP). Des méthodes d'analyse ont été proposées pour aider à quantifier ces lésions à grande échelle, afin de mieux comprendre les mécanismes sous-jacents de ces pathologies. Cependant, à notre connaissance, il n'y a pas de consensus aujourd'hui sur la méthode à utiliser et aucune méthode n'est validée sur ces deux types de sujets. Cette thèse présente plusi

Abstract:
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death of women worldwide. Accurate lesion boundary detection is important for breast cancer diagnosis. Since many crucial features for discriminating benign and malignant lesions are based on the contour, shape, and texture of the lesion, an accurate segmentation method is essential for a successful diagnosis. Ultrasound is an effective screening tool and primarily useful for differentiating benign and malignant lesions. However, due to inherent speckle noise and low contrast of breast ultrasound imaging, automatic lesion segmentation is still a cha

We propose two different methods for image segmentation with the objective of marking contaminated regions in images from biochemical tests. The contaminated regions consists of thin hair or fibers and the purpose of this thesis is to eliminate the tedious task of masking the contaminated regions by hand by implementing automatic hair masking. Initially an algorithm based on Morphological Image Processing is presented, followed by solving the problem of pixelwise classification using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).

Abstract:
A fundamental automatic target recognition (ATR) system can be composed of an object segmentation stage, followed by feature extraction from those objects produced by segmentation, and finally classification of these object features. The capability of such a system in terms of classification success is therefore limited not only by the quality of the feature extraction and classification methods used, but also by the quality of the initial object segmentation. In this thesis, a novel architecture is described which uses two stages of segmentation. This allows image features derived after a pri

This thesis aims to contribute to the area of visual tracking, which is the process of identifying an object of interest through a sequence of successive images. The thesis explores kernel-based statistical methods, which map the data to a higher dimensional space. A pre-image framework is provided to find the mapping from the embedding space to the input space for several manifold learning and dimensional learning algorithms. Two algorithms are developed for visual tracking that are robust to noise and occlusions. In the first algorithm, a kernel PCA-based eigenspace representation is used.

The objective of the proposed research is to develop methods that couple an expert user's guidance with automatic image segmentation and registration algorithms. Often, complex processes such as fire, anatomical changes/variations in human bodies, or unpredictable human behavior produce the target images; in these cases, creating a model that precisely describes the process is not feasible. A common solution is to make simplifying assumptions when performing detection, segmentation, or registration tasks automatically.

In this thesis, we propose an automatic segmentation method for breast ultrasound images which combines morphological image processing and distance-regularized level-set evolution method (DRLSE), and improve combined DRSLE (cDRLSE) proposed by Yung-Hsuan Hsu. The most serious problem of cDRLSE is that it spend a lot of time on obtaining initial c

碩士<br>中原大學<br>電機工程研究所<br>98<br>Segmentation of magnetic resonance (MR) images has numerous clinical applications: Being an auxiliary tool in diagnosis and treatment, making epidemiological statistics easier to carry on, being an important step in data analysis of all kinds of medical researches. However, most of the segmentation has been done manually or at most semi-automatically. The process is time- and energy-consuming and difficult to be standardized. Automatic segmentation algorithms of MR images for some of the body parts, such as the brain, have been developed with success. The muscula

碩士<br>國立清華大學<br>電機工程學系所<br>105<br>Due to the speckle noise and low contrast in breast ultrasound images, it is hard to locate the contour of the tumor by using a single method. In this thesis, a new method for finding an initial contour is proposed, which can improve the result of DRLSE on the segmentation of BUS images. The new method focuses on improving the algorithm proposed by Tsai-Wen Niu, which is a way to search an initial contour based on the local minimum in the images. When the BUS images contain calcification, it is possible to fail in searching of initial contour through such algo

Abstract:
<div>This dissertation addresses the problem of how to design a convolutional neural network (CNN) for giving semantic labels to the points on the ground given the satellite image coverage over the area and, for the ground truth, given the noisy labels in OpenStreetMap (OSM). This problem is made challenging by the fact that -- (1) Most of the images are likely to have been recorded from off-nadir viewpoints for the area of interest on the ground; (2) The user-supplied labels in OSM are frequently inaccurate and, not uncommonly, entirely missing; and (3) The size of the area covered on the gro
