Analyzing Filamentary Structured Objects in Biomedical Images: Segmentation, Tracing, and Synthesis

February 26, 2018 at 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM

Location:5345 Herzberg Laboratories
Cost:Free

Abstract:

Filamentary structured objects are abundant in biomedical imaging data including retinal fundus images, neuronal images, and angiography, to name a few. In this talk, I will discuss on our recent research efforts in addressing the tasks of segmenting, tracing, and synthesizing such images. In particular, I will describe the directed graph based tracing methods we have developed that can be applied to a range of data analysis tasks even beyond biomedical data.
