Combining 3D Deformable Models and Level Set Methods for the Segmentation of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
In this paper we present a system that combines the benefits of 3D deformable models and level set methods for medical volume segmentation. Our 3D deformable model is a very comp...

Elastically deformable models
Abstract: The theory of elasticity describes deformable materials such as rubber, cloth, paper, and flexible metals. We employ elasticity theory to construct differential equations...

Robotic Acquisition of Deformable Models
We describe techniques for automatically acquiring observations of a deforming object and for estimating a model of the deformation from these observations. A robotic system was d...

Motion Tracking of Cattle with a Constrained Deformable Model
In this paper, we propose a method for monitoring the motion of cows by tracking the white patterns on them with constrained deformable models. As input for observation, we use im...

An Approximation for Normal Vectors of Deformable Models
A physically-based deformable model proposed by Terzopoulous et al. is governed by the Lagrange’s form, that establishes the relation between the dynamics of deformable models un...
