Abstract

A system (400) for generating training images for a pattern recognition classifier (54) from three-dimensional image data representing an output class comprises a model constructor (404) that constructs an image model in a standard coordinate domain from the three-dimensional image data. A model transformer (406) manipulates the image model in the standard coordinate domain to produce at least one manipulated image model. An image restorer (408) maps the at least one manipulated image model from the standard coordinate domain to a coordinate domain associated with an image source utilized during the run-time operation of the pattern recognition classifier.
