Heterogeneous Computing for Vertebra Detection and Segmentation in X-Ray Images
The context of this work is related to the vertebra segmentation. The method we propose is based on the active shape model (ASM). An original approach taking advantage of the edge polygonal approximation was developed to locate the vertebra positions in a X-ray image. Despite the fact that segmentat...
