Abstract

A new algorithm based on wavelet transform to transfer colors from image of Chinese Virtual Human Data (CVHD) to Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) has been proposed and implemented. The algorithm firstly extracts the primary components from both CVHD and MR images by waveletbased multi-resolution analysis, then mapping colors from CVHD to MRI between these primary components with the similar characters. Finally these colors in MRI will be transferred to all pixels of the MRI according to their characters. Several experiment results have been reported, which have confirmed the effectiveness of this new color-transferring scheme.

The work was supported by both Science and Technology Development Fund of Macao SAR (No. 001/2005/A) and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 30470487).
