Coloring Deep CNN Layers with Activation Hue Loss

no code implementations5 Oct 2023 Louis-François Bouchard, Mohsen Ben Lazreg, Matthew Toews

This paper proposes a novel hue-like angular parameter to model the structure of deep convolutional neural network (CNN) activation space, referred to as the {\em activation hue}, for the purpose of regularizing models for more effective learning.

Balanced Mixture of SuperNets for Learning the CNN Pooling Architecture

no code implementations21 Jun 2023 Mehraveh Javan, Matthew Toews, Marco Pedersoli

To fully understand this problem, we analyse the performance of models independently trained with each pooling configurations on CIFAR10, using a ResNet20 network, and show that the position of the downsampling layers can highly influence the performance of a network and predefined downsampling configurations are not optimal.

U(1) Symmetry-breaking Observed in Generic CNN Bottleneck Layers

no code implementations5 Jun 2022 Louis-François Bouchard, Mohsen Ben Lazreg, Matthew Toews

A 3D space $(x, y, t)$ is defined by $(x, y)$ coordinates in the image plane and CNN layer $t$, where a principal ray $(0, 0, t)$ runs in the direction of information propagation through both the optical axis and the image center pixel located at $(x, y)=(0, 0)$, about which the sharpest possible spatial focus is limited to a circle of confusion in the image plane.

Registering Image Volumes using 3D SIFT and Discrete SP-Symmetry

no code implementations30 May 2022 Laurent Chauvin, William Wells III, Matthew Toews

Augmenting local feature properties with sign in addition to standard (location, scale, orientation) geometry leads to descriptors that are invariant to coordinate reflections and intensity contrast inversion.

GPU optimization of the 3D Scale-invariant Feature Transform Algorithm and a Novel BRIEF-inspired 3D Fast Descriptor

1 code implementation19 Dec 2021 Jean-Baptiste Carluer, Laurent Chauvin, Jie Luo, William M. Wells III, Ines Machado, Rola Harmouche, Matthew Toews

This work details a highly efficient implementation of the 3D scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithm, for the purpose of machine learning from large sets of volumetric medical image data.

Curating Subject ID Labels using Keypoint Signatures

no code implementations7 Oct 2021 Laurent Chauvin, Matthew Toews

Subject ID labels are unique, anonymized codes that can be used to group all images of a subject while maintaining anonymity.

Efficient Pairwise Neuroimage Analysis using the Soft Jaccard Index and 3D Keypoint Sets

1 code implementation11 Mar 2021 Laurent Chauvin, Kuldeep Kumar, Christian Desrosiers, William Wells III, Matthew Toews

Our measure generalizes the Jaccard index to account for soft set equivalence (SSE) between keypoint elements, via an adaptive kernel framework modeling uncertainty in keypoint appearance and geometry.

A Keypoint-based Morphological Signature for Large-scale Neuroimage Analysis

no code implementations MIDL 2019 Laurent Chauvin, Matthew Toews

We present an image keypoint-based morphological signature that can be used to efficiently assess the pair-wise whole-brain similarity for large MRI datasets.

Keypoint Transfer for Fast Whole-Body Segmentation

no code implementations22 Jun 2018 Christian Wachinger, Matthew Toews, Georg Langs, William Wells, Polina Golland

We introduce an approach for image segmentation based on sparse correspondences between keypoints in testing and training images.

On the Applicability of Registration Uncertainty

no code implementations14 Mar 2018 Jie Luo, Alireza Sedghi, Karteek Popuri, Dana Cobzas, Miaomiao Zhang, Frank Preiswerk, Matthew Toews, Alexandra Golby, Masashi Sugiyama, William M. Wells III, Sarah Frisken

For probabilistic image registration (PIR), the predominant way to quantify the registration uncertainty is using summary statistics of the distribution of transformation parameters.
