<h1>Objective</h1>
We are exploring different methods of constructing brain probabilistic atlases and their impacts on segmentation algorithms. These atlases contain for each voxel of the image the probabilities that it belongs to each of the labels being investigated.
The goal is to compare the results of these algorithms when using probabilistic atlases created in different manners in order to establish guidelines for the appropriate choice in various situations.

<h1>Approach, Plan</h1>
Our approach is to use the model-based segmentation algorithm described in the MICCAI 2008 (Van Leemput et al) reference below with several different probabilistic atlases. These are traditionally created from a set of manually labeled training data by counting the relative occurrence of labels in corresponding locations in the training images. However, the use of more advanced methods could yield better results. In the model-based segmentation algorithm, atlases are formed using Bayesian inference (Van Leemput). A new method could involve creating a set of atlases for different modes of the population using clustering (M. R. Sabuncu et al).

Our plan for the project week is to discuss these different techniques and determine which data sets would yield the most interesting contrasts between them. If time permits, we would also like to start running experiments.
