A graph-based mathematical morphology reader
This survey paper aims at providing a "literary" anthology of mathematical
morphology on graphs. It describes in the English language many ideas stemming
from a large number of different papers, hence providing a unified view of an
active and diverse field of research
An Unsupervised Learning Model for Deformable Medical Image Registration
We present a fast learning-based algorithm for deformable, pairwise 3D
medical image registration. Current registration methods optimize an objective
function independently for each pair of images, which can be time-consuming for
large data. We define registration as a parametric function, and optimize its
parameters given a set of images from a collection of interest. Given a new
pair of scans, we can quickly compute a registration field by directly
evaluating the function using the learned parameters. We model this function
using a convolutional neural network (CNN), and use a spatial transform layer
to reconstruct one image from another while imposing smoothness constraints on
the registration field. The proposed method does not require supervised
information such as ground truth registration fields or anatomical landmarks.
We demonstrate registration accuracy comparable to state-of-the-art 3D image
registration, while operating orders of magnitude faster in practice. Our
method promises to significantly speed up medical image analysis and processing
pipelines, while facilitating novel directions in learning-based registration
and its applications. Our code is available at
