Computer Vision News - July 2016

This code will create the following visualization: Computer Vision News Trick 25 Let us explain what the code does: we start by calling the smooth3 function which smooths the input data to produce a smoothly surface. Next, we compute the isosurface, that means regions of a particular density in a three-dimensional image, like the 3D equivalent of a contour line. Matlab has a built-in function to compute the isosurface for a given isosurface value (isoVal). Setting the isoVal to 1 will give us the kidney boundaries because our kidney segmentation (kidneyImage) has a greater than zero values (HU) inside the kidney and zero outside - thus isoVal of 1 is specifying the kidney boundaries. To further understand this, let us examine what happens to the visualization if we set the isoVal to 180. This will produce the following output: Dear reader, How do you like Computer Vision News? Did you enjoy reading it? Give us feedback here: It will take you only 2 minutes to fill and it will help us give the computer vision community the great magazine it deserves!
