Abstract

We present a statistically innovative as well as scientifically and practically relevant method for automatically segmenting magnetic resonance images using hierarchical mixture models. Our method is a general tool for automated cortical analysis which promises to contribute substantially to the science of neuropsychiatry. We demonstrate that our method has advantages over competing approaches on a magnetic resonance brain imagery segmentation task.
