Anatomical Landmarks Localization for 3D Foot Point Clouds [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 3D anatomical landmarks play an important role in health research. Their automated prediction/localization thus becomes a vital task. In this paper, we introduce a deformation method for 3D anatomical landmarks prediction. It utilizes a source model with anatomical landmarks which are annotated by clinicians, and deforms this model non-rigidly to match

Improving anatomical plausibility in medical image segmentation via hybrid graph neural networks: applications to chest x-ray analysis [PDF]
, 2022 Anatomical segmentation is a fundamental task in medical image computing, generally tackled with fully convolutional neural networks which produce dense segmentation masks. These models are often trained with loss functions such as cross-entropy or Dice, which assume pixels to be independent of each other, thus ignoring topological errors and ...
