Designed especially for neurobiologists, FluoRender is an interactive tool for multi-channel fluorescence microscopy data visualization and analysis.
Deep brain stimulation
BrainStimulator is a set of networks that are used in SCIRun to perform simulations of brain stimulation such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and magnetic transcranial stimulation (TMS).
Developing software tools for science has always been a central vision of the SCI Institute.

Cascaded Hierarchical Model (CHM)

Cascaded hierarchical model is an image segmentation framework, which learns contextual information in a hierarchical framework. At each level of the hierarchy, a classifier is trained based on downsampled input image and outputs of previous levels. Our model then incorporates the resulting multi-resolution contextual information into a classifier to segment the input image at original resolution. We repeat this procedure by cascading the hierarchical framework to improve the segmentation accuracy.

Matlab Codes

  • For scene labeling and edge detection, you should use version 2.0.
  • Precomputed edge detection results on BSDS500 dataset can be found under version 2.0.
  • Version 2.1.330 was released mostly for electron microscopy datasets in collaboration with NCMIR Institute.
  • For information about isntall/usage please check the Readme files included in each package.

Edge Detection

CHM achieves near state-of-the-art performance on Berkeley dataset and outperforms state-of-the-art methods such as SE and SCG on NYU depth dataset v2. The CHM code and corresponding scripts for edge detection for both BSDS500 and NYU dept datasets are included in the download package.

Precomputed testing results and evaluation files for BSDS 500 dataset are also included in the dowload package.
