Scalable Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SSLIC) Using a Generic and Parallel Approach

Lowekamp B., Chen D., Yaniv Z., Yoo T.

Superpixel algorithms have proven to be a useful initial step for segmentation and subsequent processing of images, reducing computational complexity by replacing the use of expensive per-pixel primitives with a higher-level abstraction, superpixels. They [...]

Efficient multithreading for manycore processor: Multidimensional domain decomposition using Intel® TBB

St-Onge E., Scherrer B., Warfield S.K.

The Insight Toolkit (ITK) utilizes a generic design for image processing filters that allows many developers to rapidly implement new algorithms. While ITK filters benefit from a platform-independent and versatile multithreading capability, the current [...]

N-Dimensional Computation of Strain Tensor Images in the Insight Toolkit

McCormick M.

Strain quantifies local deformation of a solid body. In medical imaging, strain reflects how tissue deforms under load. Or, it can quantify growth or atrophy of tissue, such as the growth of a tumor. Additionally, strain from the transformation that results [...]

Automatic Conductance Estimation Methods for Anisotropic Diffusion ITK Filters

Senra Filho A.C.

The anisotropic diffusion algorithm has been intensively studied in the past decades, which could be considered as a very efficient image denoising procedure in many biomedical applications. Several authors contributed many clever solutions for diffusion [...]

A patch-based framework for new ITK functionality: Joint fusion, denoising, and non-local super-resolution

Tustison N., Avants B., Wang H., Xie L., Coupe P., Yushkevich P., Manjon J.

In an earlier Insight Journal article, we introduced an ITK implementation of the adaptive patch-based image denoising algorithm described in [3]. We follow-up up that offering with a generalized non-local, patch-based ITK class framework and a refactored [...]

Perturbing Mesh Vertices with Additive Gaussian Noise

Vigneault D.

This brief document provides an introduction to an external ITK module, DVMeshNoise. This module provides classes for perturbing the positions of the vertices of either an itk::Mesh or itk::QuadEdgeMesh with Gaussian noise. This may be useful in testing the [...]
