The aim of this work is to automatically extract quantitative parameters from time sequences of 3D images (4D images) suited to heart pathology diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a framework for the reconstruction of the left ventricle motion from 4D images based on 4D deformable surface models. These 4D models are represented as a time...

Image registration as an important basis in signal processing task often encounter the problem of stability and efficiency. Non-learning registration approaches rely on the optimization of the similarity metrics between the fix- and moving images. Yet, those approaches are usually costly in both time and space complexity. The problem can be...

Variational autoencoder (VAE) is a very popular and well-investigated generative model in neural learning research. To leverage VAE in practical tasks dealing with a massive dataset of large dimensions, it is required to deal with the difficulty of building low variance evidence lower bounds (ELBO). Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is an...

Assessing the quality of segmentations on an image database is required as many downstream clinical applications are based on segmentation results. For large databases, this quality assessment becomes tedious for a human expert and therefore some automation of this task is necessary. In this paper, we introduce a novel unsupervised approach...

Targeted MR/ultrasound (US) fusion biopsy is a technology made possible by overlaying ultrasound images of the prostate with MRI sequences for the visualization and the targeting of lesions. However, US and MR image registration requires a good initial alignment based on manual anatomical landmark detection or prostate segmentation, which are...

This paper presents a method for frame-based finite element model in order to develop fast personalised cardiac electromechanical models. Its originality comes from the choice of the deformation model: it relies on a reduced number of degrees of freedom represented by affine transformations located at arbitrary control nodes over a tetrahedral...

In privacy-preserving machine learning, it is common that the owner of the learned model does not have any physical access to the data. Instead, only a secured remote access to a data lake is granted to the model owner without any ability to retrieve the data from the data lake. Yet, the model owner may want to export the trained model...

We propose a method to classify cardiac pathology based on a novel approach to extract image derived features to characterize the shape and motion of the heart. An original semi-supervised learning procedure, which makes efficient use of a large amount of non-segmented images and a small amount of images segmented manually by experts , is...

Machine learning applications in ultrasound imaging are limited by access to ground-truth expert annotations, especially in specialized applications such as thyroid nodule evaluation. Active learning strategies seek to alleviate this concern by making more effective use of expert annotations; however, many proposed techniques do not adapt well...

This work addresses the problem of non-rigid registration of 3D scans, which is at the core of shape modeling techniques. Firstly, we propose a new kernel based on geodesic distances for the Gaussian Process Morphable Models (GPMMs) framework. The use of geodesic distances into the kernel makes it more adapted to the topological and geometric...

Collecting large databases of annotated medical images is crucial for the validation and testing of feature extraction, statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms. Recent advances in cardiac electromechanical modeling and image synthesis provided a framework to generate synthetic images based on realistic mesh simulations....

We present an efficient deep learning approach for the challenging task of tumor segmentation in multisequence MR images. In recent years, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have achieved state-of-the-art performances in a large variety of recognition tasks in medical imaging. Because of the considerable computational cost of CNNs, large...

We propose to learn a probabilistic motion model from a sequence of images for spatio-temporal registration. Our model encodes motion in a low-dimensional probabilistic spacethe motion matrix-which enables various motion analysis tasks such as simulation and interpolation of realistic motion patterns allowing for faster data acquisition and...

Image registration is an essential but challenging task in medical image computing, especially for echocardiography, where the anatomical structures are relatively noisy compared to other imaging modalities. Traditional (non-learning) registration approaches rely on the iterative optimization of a similarity metric which is usually costly in...

Systems and methods for performing a medical imaging analysis task using a machine learning based motion model are provided. One or more medical images of an anatomical structure are received. One or more feature vectors are determined. The one or more feature vectors are mapped to one or more motion vectors using the machine learning based...

We propose to learn a probabilistic motion model from a sequence of images. Besides spatio-temporal registration, our method offers to predict motion from a limited number of frames, useful for temporal super-resolution. The model is based on a probabilistic latent space and a novel temporal dropout training scheme. This enables simulation and...

Most of the current state-of-the-art methods for tumor segmentation are based on machine learning models trained on manually segmented images. This type of training data is particularly costly, as manual delineation of tumors is not only time-consuming but also requires medical expertise. On the other hand, images with a provided global label...

We present a novel automated method to segment the my-ocardium of both left and right ventricles in MRI volumes. The segmen-tation is consistent in 3D across the slices such that it can be directly used for mesh generation. Two specific neural networks with multi-scale coarse-to-fine prediction structure are proposed to cope with the small...

We propose a method based on deep learning to perform cardiac segmentation on short axis MRI image stacks iteratively from the top slice (around the base) to the bottom slice (around the apex). At each iteration, a novel variant of U-net is applied to propagate the segmentation of a slice to the adjacent slice below it. In other words, the...
