We use multi-figure m-reps to represent anatomical objects, such as human livers, with named components. Each component is represented as a single figure m-rep. These figures of t...

Abstract. Multi-figure m-reps allow us to represent and analyze a complex anatomical object by its parts, by relations among its parts, and by the object itself as a whole entity. ...

Principal component analysis has proven to be useful for understanding geometric variability in populations of parameterized objects. The statistical framework is well understood ...
The Gaussian distribution is the basis for many methods used in the statistical analysis of shape. One such method is principal component analysis, which has proven to be a powerfu...

We develop a computational model of shape that extends existing Riemannian models of shape of curves to multidimensional objects of general topological type. We construct shape sp...
