Segmentation of magnetic resonance images for assessing neonatal brain maturation by Wang, S

“…This causes further difficulties in partial volume estimation which depends on the probabilistic atlases of the composing pure tissues.</p> <p>Our key contribution is the development of an expectation-maximisation framework that incorporates an explicit partial volume class whose locations are configured in relation to the composing pure tissues in a predefined region of interest via second-order Markov random fields. …”
