A method and system for adaptive discriminant learning and measurement fusion for image based catheter tracking is disclosed. An adaptive discriminant model is trained online based on a tracked object, such as a pigtail catheter tip, in at least one previous frame of a fluoroscopic image sequence. The object is tracked in the current frame of the fluoroscopic image sequence based at least on the adaptive discriminant model trained online. The object may be tracked in the current frame based on a fusion of three types of measurement models including the adaptive discriminant model trained online, an object detection model trained offline, and an online appearance model.
A method for tracking an object in a sequence of fluoroscopic images, comprising:
An apparatus for tracking an object in a sequence of fluoroscopic images, comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with computer executable instructions for tracking an object in a sequence of fluoroscopic images, the computer executable instructions defining a method comprising:
