The segmentation of the left ventricle of the heart from ultrasound data using deep learning architectures and derivative-based search methods

We present a new supervised learning model designed for the automatic segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) of the heart in ultrasound images. We address the following problems inherent to supervised learning models: 1) the need of a large set of training images; 2) robustness to imaging condition...
