Spatial Consistency in 3D Tract-Based Clustering Statistics
We propose a novel technique for tract-based comparison of DTI-indices between groups, based on a representation that is estimated while matching fiber tracts. The method involves ...

A Novel Explicit 2D+t Cyclic Shape Model Applied to Echocardiography
In this paper, we propose a novel explicit 2D+t cyclic shape model that extends the Point Distribution Model (PDM) to shapes like myocardial contours with cyclic dynamics. We also ...
