Method And System For Histogram Calculation Using A Graphics Processing Unit

View page
US Patent:
7889922, Feb 15, 2011
Filed:
Nov 8, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/594460
Inventors:
Oliver Fluck - Plainsboro NJ, US
Shmuel Aharon - West Windsor NJ, US
Mikael Rousson - Trenton NJ, US
Daniel Cremers - Bonn, DE
Assignee:
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. - Malvern PA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
G06F 17/00
G06F 15/80
G06T 1/00
G06T 1/60
US Classification:
382168, 345418, 345505, 345530
Abstract:
A method for histogram calculation using a graphics processing unit (GPU), comprises storing image data in a two-dimensional (2D) texture domain; subdividing the domain into independent regions or tiles; calculating in parallel, in a GPU, a plurality of tile histograms, one for each tile; and summing up in parallel, in the GPU, the tile histograms so as to derive a final image histogram.

US Patent:
8184886, May 22, 2012
Filed:
Aug 15, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/192278
Inventors:
Ali Khamene - Princeton NJ, US
Oliver Fluck - Plainsboro NJ, US
Shmuel Aharon - West Windsor NJ, US
Assignee:
Siemens Aktiengesellschaft - München
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382131, 382294
Abstract:
A method for deformable registration including determining a vector field from a two-dimensional matching of a volume of an object of interest and a two-dimensional image of the object of interest, providing a deformation profile, and finding a volume deformation that maps to a state of the two-dimensional image, wherein the deformation is parameterized by the vector field and control points of the deformation profile to find a control point configuration of the volume deformation.

US Patent:
20070211940, Sep 13, 2007
Filed:
Nov 2, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/591767
Inventors:
Oliver Fluck - Plainsboro NJ, US
Shmuel Aharon - West Windsor NJ, US
Mikael Rousson - Trenton NJ, US
Daniel Cremers - Bonn, DE
International Classification:
G06K 9/34
US Classification:
382173000
Abstract:
A method for segmentation of an image interactively with a user utilizes level set segmentation and includes selecting by user input respective areas of object and of background; initializing an embedding function implementing a segmentation boundary according to the selecting; computing intensity distributions and for the respective areas of object and of background; and performing repeatedly the steps below until convergence is reached: (a) evolving the embedding function, (b) recomputing the intensity distributions, and (c) checking for new user input and, if so: (d) updating labeling of the areas of object and background.

Histogram Tile Map For Gpu Based Histogram Computation

US Patent:
20080112614, May 15, 2008
Filed:
Jun 6, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/758806
Inventors:
Oliver Fluck - Plainsboro NJ, US
Shmuel Aharon - West Windsor NJ, US
Assignee:
Siemens Corporate Research, Inc. - Priceton NJ
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382168
Abstract:
A method for identifying a region of interest within an image includes receiving an image. The image is divided into a plurality of tiles. It is determined which of the plurality of tiles includes the region of interest. A graphics processing unit (GPU) calculates a pixel intensity histogram for tiles that have been determined to include the region of interest. The region of interest is identified based on the calculated pixel intensity histograms.
