Project Description

Objective

  • Automatic needle tip detection
  • Modelfit of oburator base and tube using CAD models
  • NF detection parameter optimization
  • Code profiling (is the code used?), refactoring
  • GUI improvements

Approach, Plan

  • SimpleITK filtering (e.g. derivatives: gradient magnitude, vesselness etc.)
  • Rigid registration of CAD models to (preprocessed) scene (ICP, Besl)
  • Machine learning (genetic algorithm etc.)
  • New ad-hoc python profiling concept (logging and message boxes as code probes)
  • Improved standardized and guided workflow more usable by MDs (disabling unsuitable buttons)

Progress

  • N/Y
