Creating 3D Model of Temporomandibular Joint
Šmirg, Ondřej ; Bartušek, Karel (referee) ; Liberda,, Ondřej (referee) ; Smékal, Zdeněk (advisor)
The dissertation thesis deals with 3D reconstruction of the temporomandibular joint from 2D slices of tissue obtained by magnetic resonance. The current practice uses 2D MRI slices in diagnosing. 3D models have many advantages for the diagnosis, which are based on the knowledge of spatial information. Contemporary medicine uses 3D models of tissues, but with the temporomandibular joint tissues there is a problem with segmenting the articular disc. This small tissue, which has a low contrast and very similar statistical characteristics to its neighborhood, is very complicated to segment. For the segmentation of the articular disk new methods were developed based on the knowledge of the anatomy of the joint area of the disk and on the genetic-algorithm-based statistics. A set of 2D slices has different resolutions in the x-, y- and z-axes. An up-sampling algorithm, which seeks to preserve the shape properties of the tissue was developed to unify the resolutions in the axes. In the last phase of creating 3D models standard methods were used, but these methods for smoothing and decimating have different settings (number of polygons in the model, the number of iterations of the algorithm). As the aim of this thesis is to obtain the most precise model possible of the real tissue, it was necessary to establish an objective method by which it would be possible to set the algorithms so as to achieve the best compromise between the distortion and the model credibility achieve.

Advanced methods for cardiac cells contour detection
Spíchalová, Barbora ; Čmiel, Vratislav (referee) ; Odstrčilík, Jan (advisor)
This thesis focuses on advanced methods of detecting contours of the cardiac cells and measuring their contraction. The theoretical section describes the types of confocal microscopes, which are used for capturing biological samples. The following chapter is devoted to the methods of cardiac cells segmentation, where we are introduced to the generally applied approaches. The most widely spread methods of segmentation are active contours and mathematical morphology, which are the crucial topics of this thesis. Thanks to the those methods we are able in the visual data to accurately detect required elements and measure their surface chnage in time. Acquired theoretical knowledge leads us to the practical realization of the methods in MATLAB.

Segmentation of the kidney from the renal perfusion MR image sequences
Jína, Miroslav ; Walek, Petr (referee) ; Malínský, Miloš (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with kidney segmentation in perfusion magnetic resonance image sequences. Kidney segmentation is carry out by a few methods such as regionbased techniques, deformable models, specimen-based methods, edge-oriented methods etc. The universal algorithm for patient kidney segmentation still does not exist. Proposed method is an active contour Snake, which is created in programming environment MatLab. Final contours are quantitatively and visually compared to manual kidney segmentation.

Analysis of volumetric change of Hippocampus caused by Alzheimer's disease
Pham, Minh Tuan ; Harabiš, Vratislav (referee) ; Walek, Petr (advisor)
Interest in hippocampus increased sharply after his significance in the process of learning and retention of information was published. In particular, considerable interest was in its volume changes and their effect on Alzheimer’s disease. Understanding the structure and function hippocampus would contribute to a more accurate diagnosis of this disease. In this work was created a method of hippocampal segmentation using active contours. With its help, the data composed of both healthy and a diseased patients was segmented and the results were then statistically analyzed using statistical methods such as Kruskal-Walis test, Mann-Whitney test. The level of significance given by results of analysis supports alternative hypothesis that attaches significance of the difference in volume of the hippocampus between studied groups.

Computer Aided Recognization and Classification of Coat of Arms
Vídeňský, František ; Kočí, Radek (referee) ; Zbořil, František (advisor)
This master thesis describes the design and development of the system for detection and recognition of whole coat of arms as well as each heraldic parts. In the thesis are presented methods of computer vision for segmentation and detection of an object and selected methods that are the most suitable. Most of the heraldic parts are segmented using a convolution neural networks and the rest using active contours. The Histogram of the gradient method was selected for coats of arms detection in an image. For training and functionality verification is used my own data set. The resulting system can serve as an auxiliary tool used in auxiliary sciences of history.

Segmentation Methods in Biomedical Image Processing
Mikulka, Jan ; Přibil, Jiří (referee) ; Dostál, Otto (referee) ; Gescheidtová, Eva (advisor)
The PhD thesis deals with modern methods of image processing, especially image segmentation, classification and evaluation of parameters. It is focused primarily on processing medical images of soft tissues obtained by magnetic resonance tomography (MR) and microscopic images of tissues. It is easy to describe edges of the sought objects using of segmented images. The edges found can be useful for further processing of monitored object such as calculating the perimeter, surface and volume evaluation or even three-dimensional shape reconstruction. The proposed solutions can be used for the classification of healthy/unhealthy tissues in MR or other imaging. Application examples of the proposed segmentation methods are shown in this thesis. Research in the area of image segmentation is focused on methods based on solving partial differential equations. This is a modern method for image processing, often called the active contour method. It is of great advantage in the segmentation of real images degraded by noise with fuzzy edges and transitions between objects. The results of the thesis are methods proposed for automatic image segmentation and classification.

Segmentace mikroskopických snímků pomocí level-set metod
Bílková, Zuzana ; Kučera, Václav (advisor)
Název práce: Segmentace mikroskopických snímků pomocí level-set metod Autor: Zuzana Bílková Katedra: Katedra numerické matematiky Vedoucí diplomové práce: RNDr. Václav Kučera, Ph.D., KNM, MFF UK Konzultant: RNDr. Jindřich Soukup, ÚTIA, AV ČR Abstrakt: Tato diplomová práce představuje novou metodu pro segmentaci snímků pořízených mikroskopem s fázovým konrastem. Cílem je oddělit buňky od pozadí. Algoritmus je založen na variační formulaci level set metod, tedy na minimalizaci funkcionálu popisujícího level set funkci. Funkcionál je minimalizován gradientním tokem popsaným evoluční parciální diferenciální rovnicí. Nejdůležitější nové myšlenky jsou inicializace pomocí prahování a nové členy ve funkcionálu, které zrychlují konvergenci a zpřesňují výsledky. Také jsme použili nové funkce napsané v jazyce C k počítání gradientu a Laplaceova operátoru. Tato implementace je třikrát rychlejší než standardní funkce v MATLABu. Dosáhli jsme lepších výsledků než algoritmy, se kterými jsme metodu porovnávali. Klíčová slova: Segmentace, level set metody, aktivní kontury Title: Segmentation of microscopic images using level set methods Author: Zuzana Bílková Department: Department of Numerical Mathematics Supervisor: RNDr....
