In this paper, we consider confocal microscopy based vessel segmentation with optimized
features and random forest classification. By utilizing multi-scale vessel-specific features
tuned to capture curvilinear structures such as Frobenius norm of the Hessian eigenvalues,
Laplacian of Gaussians (LoG), oriented second derivative, line detector and intensity
masked with LoG scale map. we obtain better segmentation results in challenging imaging
conditions. We obtain binary segmentations using random forest classifier trained on …
In this paper, we consider confocal microscopy based vessel segmentation with optimized features and random forest classification. By utilizing multi-scale vessel-specific features tuned to capture curvilinear structures such as Frobenius norm of the Hessian eigenvalues, Laplacian of Gaussians (LoG), oriented second derivative, line detector and intensity masked with LoG scale map. we obtain better segmentation results in challenging imaging conditions. We obtain binary segmentations using random forest classifier trained on physiologists marked ground-truth. Experimental results on mice dura mater confocal microscopy vessel segmentations indicate that we obtain better results compared to global segmentation approaches.
