  • Abstract
    MRI brain images are characterized by non-stationary components that make fully automated segmentation a challenging task. An AM-FM model is used to model these non-stationarities. Using the AM-FM model, a new, fully automated texture segmentation system is used to automatically segment the cerebellum from a 3-D set of MRI brain images.
