| Abstract | To reduce noise within a tag line, unsharpen the tag edges in spatial domain, and amplify the tag-to-background contrast, a 3D energy minimization framework for the enhancement of tagged Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) image sequences, based on learning first- and second-order visual appearance models, is proposed. The first-order appearance modeling uses adaptive Linear Combinations of Discrete Gaussians (LCDG) to accurately approximate the empirical marginal probability distribution of CMR signals for a given sequence, and separates tag and background submodels. It is also used to classify the tag lines and the background. The second-order model considers image sequences as samples of a translation- and rotation-invariant 3D Markov-Gibbs Random Field (MGRF) with multiple pairwise voxel interactions. A 3D energy function for this model is built by using the analytical estimation of the spatio-temporal geometry and Gibbs potentials of interaction. To improve the strain estimation, by enhancing the tag and background homogeneity and contrast, the given sequence is adjusted using comparisons to the energy minimizer. Special 3D geometric phantoms, motivated by statistical analysis of the tagged CMR data, have been designed to validate the accuracy of our approach. Experiments with the phantoms and eight real data sets have confirmed the high accuracy of the functional parameters that are estimated for the enhanced tagged sequences when using popular spectral techniques, such as spectral Harmonic Phase (HARP). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
