| Abstract | Existing computational anatomy methodologies for morphometric analysis of medical images are often based solely on the shape transformation, typically being a diffeomorphism, that warps these images to a common template or vice versa. However, anatomical differences as well as changes induced by pathology, prevent the warping transformation from producing an exact correspondence. The residual image captures information that is not reflected by the diffeomorphism, and therefore allows us to maintain the entire morphological profile for analysis. In this paper we present a morphological descriptor which combines the warping transformation with the residual image in an equivalence class formulation, to characterize morphology of anatomical structures. Equivalence classes are formed by pairs of transformation and residual, for different levels of smoothness of the warping transformation. These pairs belong to the same equivalence class, since they jointly reconstruct the exact same morphology. Moreover, pattern classification methods are trained on the entire equivalence class, instead of a single pair, in order to become more robust to a variety of factors that affect the warping transformation, including the anatomy being measured. This joint descriptor is evaluated by statistical testing and estimation of class separation by classification, initially for 2-D synthetic images with simulated atrophy and subsequently for a volumetric dataset consisting of schizophrenia patients and healthy controls. Results of class separation indicate that this joint descriptor produces generally better and more robust class separation than using each of the components separately. |

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.
