Table 1.

Experiment on 15 Brainweb phantoms with 5 different noise levels, each at three different inhomogeneity levels (0, 20, 40%). The Dice coefficients between ground truth and hard segmentations of each tissue class, averaged over three inhomogeneity levels, are shown at each noise level. “Mean” is a weighted Dice, weighted by the volumes of each tissue class generated from the corresponding algorithm. The segmentation from Freesurfer is denoted as SURFER.
