    Multiscale edge detection using first-order derivative of anisotropic Gaussian kernels
    (Springer, 2019) Wang, Gang; López Molina, Carlos; Baets, Bernard de; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
    Spatially scaled edges are ubiquitous in natural images. To better detect edges with heterogeneous widths, in this paper, we propose a multiscale edge detection method based on first-order derivative of anisotropic Gaussian kernels. These kernels are normalized in scale-space, yielding a maximum response at the scale of the observed edge, and accordingly, the edge scale can be identified. Subsequently, the maximum response and the identified edge scale are used to compute the edge strength. Furthermore, we propose an adaptive anisotropy factor of which the value decreases as the kernel scale increases. This factor improves the noise robustness of small-scale kernels while alleviating the anisotropy stretch effect that occurs in conventional anisotropic methods. Finally, we evaluate our method on widely used datasets. Experimental results validate the benefits of our method over the competing methods.

    Twofold binary image consensus for medical imaging meta-analysis
    (Springer, 2018) López Molina, Carlos; Sánchez Ruiz de Gordoa, Javier; Zelaya Huerta, María Victoria; Baets, Bernard de; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
    In the field of medical imaging, ground truth is often gathered from groups of experts, whose outputs are generally heterogeneous. This procedure raises questions on how to compare the results obtained by automatic algorithms to multiple ground truth items. Secondarily, it raises questions on the meaning of the divergences between experts. In this work, we focus on the case of immunohistochemistry image segmentation and analysis. We propose measures to quantify the divergence in groups of ground truth images, and we observe their behaviour. These measures are based upon fusion techniques for binary images, which is a common example of non-monotone data fusion process. Our measures can be used not only in this specific field of medical imagery, but also in any task related to meta-quality evaluation for image processing, e.g. ground truth validation or expert rating.
