[Insight-users] suggestions for ITK-based projects for a graduate image analysis class? Particle filters?

[Audette, Michel A.]

Hello again, 

can anyone comment on the feasibility and complexity of implementing a particle filter, as have been used by  Savadjiev in A Geometry-Based Particle Filtering Approach to White Matter Tractography, and Dalca in Segmentation of nerve bundles and ganglia in spine MRI using particle filters? Doable as a student project based on ITK? 

Best wishes, 

Michel

Subject: suggestions for ITK-based projects for a graduate image analysis class?

Dear ITK users,

I am teaching a graduate class in medical image analysis, and I would like to provide my students with a list of possible projects based on ITK that could implement recent algorithms, which possibly could then be submitted to Insight Journal and meet some needs of the ITK community. This class is based on the Toennies textbook from 2012, and will feature a number of registration and segmentation techniques, including graph cuts and level sets, as well as meshing methods not in the textbook. These projects will be for two students on which to collaborate, typically.

If the community has any suggestions on how ITKv4 might be extended, based on recent papers in MICCAI, MedIA, or IEEE TMI, please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks for your kind consideration.

Cheers,

Michel
