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 [...]

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 [...]
