Applying Evolution Strategies for Chest Radiographs Segmentation [PDF]
Computer Science Journal of Moldova, 2006 WSegmentation is one of the key areas in computer vision. Advanced techniques, such as active contour models and active shape models suffer from many drawbacks. An improvement of the two approaches, based in evolution strategies, is presented.

Hand Gesture Extraction by Active Shape Models [PDF]
Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA'05), 2005 The paper applied active statistical model for hand gesture extraction and recognition. After the hand contours are found out by a real-time segmenting and tracking system, a set of feature points (Landmarks) are marked out automatically and manually along the contour.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cup‐like nuclei are a distinctive morphological feature observed in certain cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We provide evidence that they characterize DUX4/ERG ALL independently of IKZF1 deletion and reveal marked mitochondrial accumulation in this ALL subset.

Automatic liver segmentation in computed tomography using general-purpose shape modeling methods
BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2018 Background Liver segmentation in computed tomography is required in many clinical applications. The segmentation methods used can be classified according to a number of criteria. One important criterion for method selection is the shape representation of

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive

Active spline model: A shape based model—interactive segmentation [PDF]
Digital Signal Processing, 2014 Rarely in literature a method of segmentation cares for the edit after the algorithm delivers. They provide no solution when segmentation goes wrong. We propose to formulate point distribution model in terms of centripetal-parameterized Catmull-Rom spline.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with an overall survival now surpassing 90% in developed countries. However, treatments are not without adverse effects. In this study, we apply the severe toxicity‐free survival (STFS) framework to determine the prevalence of 21 physician‐defined severe ...
