Deep reinforcement learning for cerebral anterior vessel tree extraction from 3D CTA images

Extracting the cerebral anterior vessel tree of patients with an intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) is relevant to investigate potential biomarkers that can contribute to treatment decision making. The purpose of our work is to develop a method that can achieve this from routinely acquired computed tomography angiography (CTA) and...

Longitudinal diffusion MRI analysis using Segis-Net: A single-step deep-learning framework for simultaneous segmentation and registration

This work presents a single-step deep-learning framework for longitudinal image analysis, coined Segis-Net. To optimally exploit information available in longitudinal data, this method concurrently learns a multi-class segmentation and nonlinear registration. Segmentation and registration are modeled using a convolutional neural network and...

An efficient deep learning approach for ground point filtering in aerial laser scanning point clouds

Ground surface extraction is one of the classic tasks in airborne laser scanning (ALS) point cloud processing that is used for three-dimensional (3D) city modelling, infrastructure health monitoring, and disaster management. Many methods have been developed over the last three decades. Recently, Deep Learning (DL) has become the most dominant...

Neuro4Neuro: A neural network approach for neural tract segmentation using large-scale population-based diffusion imaging

Subtle changes in white matter (WM) microstructure have been associated with normal aging and neurodegeneration. To study these associations in more detail, it is highly important that the WM tracts can be accurately and reproducibly characterized from brain diffusion MRI. In addition, to enable analysis of WM tracts in large datasets and in...

Planetary gear fault diagnosis via feature image extraction based on multi central frequencies and vibration signal frequency spectrum

Poor working environment leads to frequent failures of planetary gear trains. However, complex structure and variable transmission make the vibration signal strongly non-linear and non-stationary, which brings big problems to fault diagnosis. A method of planetary gear fault diagnosis via feature image extraction based on multi central...
