Generalized Image Models and Their Application as Statistical Models of Images
Résumé
A generalized image model (GIM) is presented. Images are represented as sets of 4-dimensional sites combining position and intensity information, as well as their associated uncertainty and joint variation. This model seamlessly allows for the representation of both images and statistical models, as well as other representations such as landmarks or meshes. A GIM-based registration method aimed at the construction and application of statistical models of images is proposed. A procedure based on the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm is modified to deal with features other than position and to integrate statistical information. Furthermore, we modify the ICP framework by using a Kalman filter to efficiently compute the transformation. The initialization and update of the statistical model are also described.
