The image segmentation method we use for leucocytes is based on image distance transformation, combining the region and edge approach, taking full advantage of image information. According to the shape, texture and color appearance of cells, we select 22 feature values and measure them. The classifier is designed on the statistical classification. A test for recognizing 831 leucocytes in 560 images shows that the classification accuracy is 96%. Clinical experts confirm this system; for it can automatically recognize leucocytes by pattern recognition technique, and it is demonstrably valid in practice.

2.An image mosaic algorithm of pathological section based on feature points.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2010;27(5):984-986
In this paper, an image mosaic algorithm based on feature points was proposed by making a study of the image mosaic methods and the characteristics of pathological image. Points of interest were firstly extracted by Moravec operator in this method, and the corresponding feature matches of the original images were achieved by correlation coefficient. The parameters of affine transformation were calculated by the matching feature points, and weighted average method was used to fuse images. The experimental results show that, as for the pathological image with translation and rotation, the algorithm can extract the matching feature points accurately and realize the image seamless mosaic.

In this paper, some familiar algorithms of edge detection in ultrasound B-scan images are analyzed and studied. The results show that Sobel, Prewitt and Laplacian operators are sensitive to noise, Hough transform adapts to the whole detection, while LoG algorithm's average is zero and it couldn't change the whole dynamic area. Accordingly LoG algorithm is preferable.

At present, ray-casting algorithm is the most widely used algorithm in the field of medical image visualization, and it can achieve the best image quality. Due to large amounts of computation like sampling, gradient, lighting and blending calculation, the cost of ray-casting algorithm is very large. The characteristic of Streaming single instruction multiple datum extensions (SSE) instruction--supporting vector computation--can satisfy the property of ray-casting algorithm well. Therefore, in this paper, we improved the implementation efficient significantly by vectorization of gradient, lighting and blending calculation, and still achieved a high quality image at the same time.

Discrimination of abnormal images from the numerous wireless capsule endoscope (WCE) video sequence images is laborious and time-consuming, so that a computer-based automatic image recognition system is desired for this task. We propose an algorithm to allow feature extraction from each image channel and decision fusion using multiple BP neural networks. The algorithm was tested and the results demonstrated its high efficiency and accuracy in identification of abnormalities in the WCE images.

With the utilization of diffusion tensor information of image voxels, a novel MRF (Markov Random Field) segmentation algorithm was proposed for diffusion tensor MRI (DT-MRI) images benefitted from the introduction of Frobenius norm. The comparison of the segmentation effects between the proposed algorithm and K-means segmentation algorithm for DT-MRI image was made, which showed that the new algorithm could segment the DT-MRI images more accurately than the K-means algorithm. Moreover, with the same segmentation algorithm of MRF, better outcomes were achieved in DT-MRI than in conventional MRI (T2WI) image.

Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2010;27(2):288-291
Usually all heartbeats contribute to the calculation of electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform parameters, such as amplitude and interval, in which those low signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) heartbeats actually produce a negative effect. In this paper is presented an approach for measuring ECG waveform parameters using template-based methods. Compared with Karhunen-Loeve (KL) template, average template has an advantage over KL template both on speediness and accuracy. Experimental results proved that this approach improved the statistical precision of ECG waveform parameters. In conclusion, this method makes the result of ECG auto analysis more accurate and reliable.

9.Pattern recognition of surface electromyogram based on multi-scale principal component analysis.
Chinese Journal of Medical Instrumentation 2009;33(4):243-246
Multi-scale principal component analysis based on wavelet transform was applied in feature extraction of sEMG, and bayes classifier was used for pattern classification in this paper. The experiment showed that when Harr wavelet or bior2.6 wavelet was employed to decompose EMG at 5 levels, this method resulted in good performance in the pattern recognition of six movements including varus, ectropion, hand grasps, hand extension, upwards flexion and downwards flexion, with the accuracy of 99.44%. It was superior to the feature extraction based on the statistic feature of wavelet coefficients combined with dimension-reduce by PCA. The research indicated that the proposed method can successfully identify many kinds of movements.
