NA-MIC/Projects/Structural/General purpose Filtering and Classification

Back to NA-MIC_Collaborations

Objective:

To make new filters more accessible to the medical imaging community. These filters include geometric nonlinear smoothing filters for enhancement and a modified Bayesian classifier for segmentation.

Progress:

• Various anisotropic enhancement and Bayesian filters have been incorporated into ITK.
  • [Bayesian Classifier Image Filter]
  • [Bayesian Classifier Initialization Image Filter]
• A paper was published in the (Open Access) Insight Journal
  • [Knowledge-Based Segmentation of Brain MRI Scans Using the Insight Toolkit]
