TLDR
A new, continuous parametrization of the anatomy localization problem, which allows it to be addressed effectively by multi-class random regression forests, and is more accurate and robust than techniques based on efficient multi-atlas registration and template-based nearest-neighbor detection.

BRR-Net: A tandem architectural CNN–RNN for automatic body region localization in CT images

TL;DR: A method to automatically demarcate the superior and inferior boundaries for neck, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis body regions in computed tomography (CT) images is described, which significantly outperforms earlier works by a large margin.

Automatic anatomy partitioning of the torso region on CT images by using a deep convolutional network with majority voting

TL;DR: The experimental results demonstrated that using a deep CNN for anatomy partitioning on 3D CT images was more efficient and useful compared to the method used in the previous work.

Automatic Craniomaxillofacial Landmark Digitization via Segmentation-Guided Partially-Joint Regression Forest Model

TL;DR: A segmentation-guided partially-joint regression forest model is proposed that can automatically digitizes CMF landmarks and shows that the accuracy of automatically digitized landmarks using this approach is clinically acceptable.

Implementation and Performance Optimization of Dynamic Random Forest

Xiaolong Xu, +1 more
TL;DR: This paper implements the DRF algorithm, and proposes a new weight update method, that is, giving higher weight to the samples classified wrongly by the current forest, giving lower weight to those samples classified correctly by theCurrent forest, so that the next tree will be more concerned with those misclassified samples.

Quantitative normal thoracic anatomy at CT

TL;DR: The proposed method provides new, objective, and usable knowledge about anatomy whose utility in building body-wide models toward AAR has been demonstrated in other studies.

A simplex method for function minimization

TL;DR: A method is described for the minimization of a function of n variables, which depends on the comparison of function values at the (n 41) vertices of a general simplex, followed by the replacement of the vertex with the highest value by another point.

TL;DR: The methodology used to construct tree structured rules is the focus of a monograph as mentioned in this paper, covering the use of trees as a data analysis method, and in a more mathematical framework, proving some of their fundamental properties.

The random subspace method for constructing decision forests

TL;DR: A method to construct a decision tree based classifier is proposed that maintains highest accuracy on training data and improves on generalization accuracy as it grows in complexity.

Nonrigid registration using free-form deformations: application to breast MR images

TL;DR: The results clearly indicate that the proposed nonrigid registration algorithm is much better able to recover the motion and deformation of the breast than rigid or affine registration algorithms.
