| 20090285460 | REGISTRATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, REGISTRATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A registration processing apparatus generates a polynomial to calculate a value corresponding to a distance from the surface of a target object in a first image, and acquires a plurality of position coordinates on the surface of the target object in a second image. Then the apparatus respectively calculates a value corresponding to the distance from the surface of the target object in the first image using the polynomial, for position coordinates obtained by coordinate conversion of the plurality of position coordinates. The apparatus coordinate-converts the position coordinates of the second image by a coordinate conversion method for the plurality of position coordinates determined based on the calculated values. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100074488 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - A plurality of sets each including part information representing a human body part and a schema image serving as the schematic view of the human body part are held. A captured image representing the interior of the body of a patient is acquired. Hierarchical structure information is acquired, which contains part information globally representing a part corresponding to a designated portion on the captured image and part information locally representing the part corresponding to the designated portion. A set including the part information contained in the hierarchical structure information is acquired. A schema image included in the acquired set is output. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100239150 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR REGISTRATING MEDICAL IMAGES, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM - An information processing apparatus to register an ultrasonic image and a three-dimensional medical image at high speed is disclosed. The information processing apparatus includes: a medical image acquisition unit which acquires a medical image captured by a medical imaging apparatus in which an imaging unit captures an image of an object at a non-contact position with respect to the object, an ultrasonic image acquisition unit which acquires an ultrasonic image captured by an ultrasonic imaging apparatus in which an ultrasonic probe captures an image of the object at a position in contact with a surface of the object, and a coordinate transformation unit which transforms coordinates of the medical image or ultrasonic image with reference to the contact position on the ultrasonic image, so that image information of the medical image matches that of the ultrasonic image. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20110142308 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus and an information processing method including a deformation shape model generation unit configured to generate, from information about a first shape and a first position of a feature region in a target object under a first deformation condition, a deformation of the first shape with the position of the feature region as a reference as a model, and a deformation estimation unit configured to, based on information about a second shape and a second position corresponding to the feature region in the target object under the second deformation condition, align the first position with the second position to estimate deformation from the first shape to the second shape using the model. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110213748 | INFERENCE APPARATUS AND INFERENCE METHOD FOR THE SAME - An inference apparatus that infers a class of a case is provided. The apparatus includes an inference unit configured to infer a class of a case with use of an inference device and an evaluation unit configured to, based on a result of inference performed by the inference device with respect to a known case that is similar to an unknown case, evaluate a result of inference with respect to the unknown case. | 09-01-2011 |

| 20080204566 | IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS - An image pickup apparatus is disclosed which provides an appropriate inclination guide display in accordance with an aspect ratio of a picked-up image and the like. The image pickup apparatus includes an inclination detector which detects an inclination of the image pickup apparatus, a display device capable of superimposedly showing an inclination guide display corresponding to a detection output from the inclination detector, on a picked-up image, and an aspect ratio setter which sets the aspect ratio of a picked-up image. The apparatus includes a display controller which controls whether or not to show the inclination guide display on the display device on the basis of the aspect ratio set by the aspect ratio setter. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080211957 | FOCUSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING FOCUSING APPARATUS - When the present position of a focus lens is on the closest distance side with respect to a predetermined position, the focus lens is driven and controlled using a TV-AF method without using the output result of an external ranging unit, and thereby a malfunction of an AF control due to parallax between an image pickup optical system and an external sensor is prevented. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20100040356 | IMAGING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - By using a result of a detection of an object such as a face, stable focus adjustment of the object can be performed with accuracy. Even if an area that includes the object is not detected, if a tilt of an imaging apparatus is not changed, or a panning or a tilting operation is not detected, a focus detection area, which is used when the object is detected, is maintained. | 02-18-2010 |
