Nonlinear registration is mostly performed after initialization by a global, linear transformation (in this work, we focus on similarity transformations), computed by a linear reg...

Abstract. In this paper we introduce the concept of statistical deformation models (SDM) which allow the construction of average models of the anatomy and their variability. SDMs a...

Abstract. Concepts from elasticity are applied to analyze modes of variation on shapes in two and three dimensions. This approach represents a physically motivated alternative to s...
In this paper we develop a theory for characterizing how deformable a shape is. We define a term called “deformability index” for shapes. The deformability index is computed ...
Many of the computer vision algorithms have been posed in various forms of differential equations, derived from minimization of specific energy functionals, and the finite eleme...
