Accurately describing interactions between medical devices and anatomical structures, or between anatomical structures themselves, is an essential step towards the adoption of comp...
In this paper, we present a physically-based simulation framework to build up real-time Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) simulators using pointbased techniques. In our framework, s...
Abstract. Vertebrate and most invertebrate organisms interact with their environment through processes of adaptation and learning. Such processes are generally controlled by comple...
