A Stochastic Approach to 3-D Image Modeling
Dhiraj Joshi, Jia Li, James Z. Wang · 2006
Statistical modeling methods have been successfully used to segment, classify, and annotate digital images, over the years. In this paper, we present a 3-D hidden Markov model (HMM) for volume image modeling. The 3-D HMM is applied to volume image segmentation and tested using synthetic images with ground truth. Potential applications to 3-D biomedical image analysis are also discussed
