Compact Support Radial Basis Functions for Soft Tissue Deformation
We describe the use of compact support radial basis functions (CSRBFs) for simulation of soft tissue deformation. CSRBFs allow surface and volumetric deformations to be computed i...

Planning for Steerable Bevel-tip Needle Insertion Through 2D Soft Tissue with Obstacles
— We explore motion planning for a new class of highly flexible bevel-tip medical needles that can be steered to previously unreachable targets in soft tissue. Planning for thes...
