Automatic Vertebrae Localization and Identification by Combining Deep SSAE Contextual Features and Structured Regression Forest

Abstract: Automatic vertebrae localization and identification in medical computed tomography (CT) scans is of great value for computer-aided spine diseases diagnosis. In order to overcome the disadvantages of the approaches employing hand-crafted, low-level features and based on field-of-view priori assumption of spine structure, an automatic method is proposed to localize and identify vertebrae by combining deep stacked sparse autoencoder (SSAE) contextual features and structured regression forest (SRF). The method emp… Show more

“…DSAE has been shown to have high classification accuracy and speed for liver segmentation on CT images [139]. AE can learn medical image deep contextual features from large-range input samples to improve their contextual discrimination ability [142]. Validated on the 98 spine CT scans from the public MICCAI CSI 2014 dataset, the SSAE method could effectively and automatically locate and identify spinal targets in CT scans, and achieve high localization accuracy without making any assumptions about visual field in CT scans [140].…”

“…CSDAE can potentially save the radiologists time and effort, allowing them to focus on higher-level risk CXRs. In contrast to machine learning, whose performance depends on hand-craft features, AE can learn medical image deep contextual features instead of hand-crafted ones by building larger-range input samples to improve their contextual discrimination ability [155]. Validated on public MICCAI CS2014 dataset which includes a challenging dataset of 98 spine CT scans, the SSAE method could effectively and automatically locate and identify spinal targets in CT scans, and achieve higher localization accuracy, low model complexity without making any assumptions about visual field in CT scans [102].…”

“…To improve the discriminability of these features, a further refinement using a supervised fashion and fine-tuning was integrated. Similarly, Wang et al proposed to localize and identify vertebrae by combining SSAE contextual features and structured regression forest (SRF) [155]. Contextual features were extracted via SSAE in an unsupervised way, and were then fed into SRF to achieve whole spine localization.…”

“…Qualitative analysis of these markers shows predictive value in the task of detecting healthy, early, and late age-related muscular degeneration. A combination of contextual features from deep stacked sparse AE (SSAE) and structured regression forest for vertebrae localization and identification was created to overcome handcrafted and low-level features of spine structure [126]. The method employs SSAE to learn deep contextual features by building larger-range input samples to improve the contextual discrimination ability.…”
