The quality of ultrasound image is a key information in medical related application. It also an important index evaluating the performance ultrasonic imaging equipment and processing algorithms. Yet, there still no recognized quantitative standard about assessment (IQA) due to fact that IQA traditionally regarded as subjective issue, especially case images. As such, on basis convolutional neural network (CNN) quantitatively studied this paper. Firstly, dataset with 1063 images established...

How to automatically detect intracranial aneurysms from Three-Dimension Time of Flight Magnetic Resonance Angiography (3D TOF MRA) images is a typical 3D image classification problem. Currently, the commonly used method Maximum Intensity Projection- (MIP-) based way. It transfers into 2D case by projecting patch planes along different directions on basis voxel’s intensity. After then, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) established do classification. has been shown that MIP-based can reduce...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) images are usually degraded by significant speckle noise, which will strongly hamper their quantitative analysis. However, noise reduction in OCT is particularly challenging because of the difficulty differentiating between and information components pattern. To address this problem, spiking cortical model (SCM)-based nonlocal means method presented. The proposed explores self-similarities based on rotation-invariant features image patches extracted SCM...

Speckle suppression plays an important role in improving ultrasound (US) image quality. While lots of algorithms have been proposed for 2D US denoising with remarkable filtering quality, there is relatively less work done on 3D speckle suppression, where the whole volume data rather than just one frame needs to be considered. Then, most crucial problem that computational complexity increases tremendously. The nonlocal means (NLM) provides effective method images. In this paper, a...

Monocular depth estimation is a basic and critical task in computer vision that finds wide applications various domains, including robot navigation autonomous driving. A prevailing method nowadays leveraging hybrid datasets obtained from sensors to predict affine-invariant under supervised learning. However, the varying ranges can result an unstable network. While some loss functions have been introduced, existing methods may lead suboptimal geometric structures, such as blurred boundaries...

The vessel-wall-volume (VWV) measured based on three-dimensional (3D) carotid artery (CA) ultrasound (US) images can help to assess atherosclerosis and manage patients at risk for stroke. Manual involvement measurement work is subjective requires well-trained operators, fully automatic tools are not yet available. Thereby, we proposed a VWV framework (Auto-VWV) using CA prior-knowledge embedded U-Net (CAP-UNet) measure the from 3D US without manual intervention. Auto-VWV designed improve...

A method based on point cloud smoothing approaches for detecting noise and outliers is introduced. This firstly estimates thresholds according to points' shifts after smoothing, secondly identifies whose are more than the lastly removes them repeats whole process. The main difference from other methods that it tries screen out clouds rather makes points smoother by correcting their coordinates. precondition assure work will be shifted more, which requires operators possess ability of...
