Large variations in anatomical shape and size, too much overlap between anatomical
structures, and inconsistent anatomical shapes make accurate lung segmentation in chest x …

The purpose of this work is to develop a method for accurate and robust prostate
segmentation in transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) images. These images are difficult to …

Abstract Background and Objective Accurate and robust prostate segmentation in transrectal
ultrasound (TRUS) images is of great interest for image-guided prostate interventions and …

Accurate and robust prostate segmentation in transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) images is of
great interest for ultrasound-guided brachytherapy for prostate cancer. However, the current …

Among all image features, the contour is one of the most critical features for displaying the
shape of the object intuitively. Due to unseen/missing regions of transrectal ultrasound …

Abstract Systems with predetermined Lyapunov functions play an important role in many
areas of applied mathematics, physics and engineering: dynamic optimization methods …

Principal curves arising as an essential construct in dimensionality reduction and data
analysis have recently attracted much attention from theoretical as well as practical …

This work aims to develop a method for accurate prostate segmentation in transrectal
ultrasound (TRUS) images. However, accurate prostate segmentation remains a …

Principal curves are a nonlinear generalization of principal components and go through the
mean of data lying in Euclidean space. In this paper, we propose L 1-type and Huber-type …

Delineation of prostate cancer (PCa) on ultrasound images has become an essential
technique for early PCa treatment, which still faces several challenges, such as low image …
