What are ‘tensors’? • In general: all multilinear applications. • In this talk: symmetric positive-definite matrices. • Typically : covariance matrices. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
Diffusion Tensor MRI • Diffusion-weightedMR images • Diffusion Tensor: local covariance of diffusion [Basser, 94]. • Generalizationof vector processing tools (filtering, statistics, etc.) to tensors? Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05

Euclidean calculus • DTs: 3x3 symmetric matrices, thus belong to a vector space. • Simple, but: • unphysical negative eigenvalues appear • ‘swelling effect’: more diffusion than originally. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
Remedies in the literature • First family: • process features from tensors • propagate processing to tensors. • Example: regularization • dominant directions of diffusion [Coulon, IPMI’01] • orientations and eigenvalues separately [Tschumperlé, IJCV, 02, Chefd’hotel JMIV, 04]. • Drawback: some information left behind. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
Remedies in the literature • Second family: specialized procedures • Affine-invariant means [Wang, TMI, 05] • Anisotropic interpolation [Castagno-Moraga, MICCAI’04] • Etc. • Drawback: lack of general framework. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
A general solution: Riemannian geometry • Powerful framework for curved spaces. • Statistics[Pennec, JMIV, 98],PDEs[Pennec, IJCV, 05]. • Riemannian arithmetic mean: ‘Fréchet mean’. • Basic tool:differentiable distance between tensors. http://www.alumni.ca/~wupa4p0/ Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
Choice of distance? • Relevant/natural invariance properties. • In 2004: affine-invariant metrics [Fletcher, CVAMIA’04, Lenglet, JMIV, 05, Moakher, SIMAX, 05, Pennec, IJCV, 05]. • invariance w.r.t. any affine change of coordinate system. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05

Conclusions • Log-Euclidean Riemannian framework: • Riemannian excellent properties. • Euclidean speed and simplicity • Existing vector algorithms readily recycled. • More applications: • Joint estimation and smoothing for DTI:[Fillard, INRIA RR-5607, 2005]. • Statistical priors in non-linear registration[Pennec, MICCAI’05, Post. II-943], [Commowick, Post. II-927]. Vincent Arsigny et al., Log-Euclidean Framework, MICCAI'05
Perspectives • Evaluation/validation (phantoms...).Which metric for which application? • Diffusion tensors(statistics, interpolation, estimation, registration…) • Variability tensors[Fillard, IPMI’05](models of anatomical varibility) • Structure tensors[Fillard, DSSCV’05](classical image processing) • Metric tensors[Allauzet, INRIA RR-4759, 2003](anisotropic mesh adaptation for PDE solving) • Extension of Log-Euclidean framework to: • Generalized diffusion tensors [Özarslan, MRM, 2003] • Q-balls [Tuch, MRM, 2004].
