  1. Minimum Description Length Shape Modelling Hildur Ólafsdóttir Informatics and Mathematical Modelling Technical University of Denmark (DTU)

  2. Outline • Motivation • Background • Objective function • Shape representation • Optimisation methods • Cases – 2D • Head silhouettes (gender classification) • Corpus callosum • Extension to 3D • Case: Rat kidneys • Summary

  3. Motivation I • Statistical shape models have shown considerable promise for image segmentation and interpretation • Require a training set of shapes, annotated so that marks correspond across the set • Manual annotation is tedious, subjective and almost impossible in 3D • MDL automatically establishes point correspondences in an optimisation framework

  4. 1 2 MDL Two sub-problems • Define shape borders from the set of images • Annotate the shapes so that points correspond across the set MDL shape modelling solves sub-problem 2 => a semi-automatic approach to training set formation

  5. A small example Manual Equidistant

  6. Background • Introduced by Davies et al. in 2001 • Properties of a good shape model • Generalisation ability • Specificity • Compactness • Ockham’s razor paraphrased: • Simple descriptions interpolate/extrapolate best • Quantitative measure of simplicity – Description Length (DL) • In terms of shape modelling: Cost of transmitting the PCA coded model parameters (in number of bits)

  7. : number of modes : shape parameter for shape k, mode m : Eigenvector defining principal direction m Objective Function I • The Shape model • Goal: Calculate the Description Length (DL) of the model • Mean shape and eigenvectors are assumed constant for a given training set => Calculate the DL of the shape space coordinates

  8. Objective Function II • Eigenvectors are mutually orthonormal • Total DL can be decomposed to • Where is the DL of • How do we generally calculate description lengths?? • Shannon’s codeword length

  9. Objective Function III • Calculate the description length for a 1D Gaussian model • DL for coding of the data, using the model • DL for coding of the parameters in the model • Total description length of a shape model (approximation)

  10. Shape Representation IParameterisation function

  11. Shape Representation IIParameterisation function

  12. 1 2 ns Optimisation Procedure Manipulate k Evaluate DL END Mode 1 Procrustes alignment Mode 2 Build shape model (PCA)

  13. Optimisation strategies • Davies2001 – a) Genetic algorithms, b) Nelder-Mead downhill Simplex • Thodberg 2003 (DTU)– Pattern Search algorithm • Freely available code • Erikson 2003 (Lund University) – Steepest Descent algorithm

  14. Thodbergs implementationExtensions to the standard framework • A mechanism which prevents marks from piling up • A curvature term added to the objective function in the final iterations T: Tolerance param. : Fractional distance of point i C:Weighting factor N:#marks s:#shapes kir: Curvature in point i of shape r

  21. Corpus callosum case1 I 1From M. B. Stegmann et al.Corpus Callosum Analysis using MDL-based Sequential Models of Shape and Appearance. SPIE 2004

  22. Corpus callosum case II Manual landmarking MDL-based landmarking VTOT=0.0087 VTOT=0.0038 VT = 0.0038 VT = 0.0087

  23. Extension to 3D I • Each surface is represented as a triangular mesh – topologically equivalent to a sphere • Initialised by mapping each surface mesh to a unit sphere • Parameterisation of a given surface is manipulated by altering the mapped vertices on the sphere

  24. Extension to 3D II

  27. Summary • MDL is a semi-automatic approach to a training set formation • A theoretically justified objective function is used in an optimisation framework as a quantitative measure of the quality of a given shape model • The method extends to 3D • Practical optimisation methods have been introduced • Freely available code from Thodberg (www.imm.dtu.dk/~hht) • Impressive results
