A 3-D Active Shape Model Driven by Fuzzy Inference: Application to Cardiac CT and MR
Abstract--Manual quantitative analysis of cardiac left ventricular function using Multislice CT and MR is arduous because of the large data volume. In this paper, we present a 3-D ...

Statistical Multi-Object Shape Models
The shape of a population of geometric entities is characterized by both the common geometry of the population and the variability among instances. In the deformable model approach...

A Comparison of Shape Constrained Facial Feature Detectors
We consider the problem of robustly and accurately locating facial features. The relative positions of different feature points are represented using a statistical shape model. We...

A priori information in image segmentation: energy functional based on shape statistical model and image information
In this paper, we propose an energy functional to segment objects whose global shape is a priori known thanks to a statistical model. Our work aims at extending the variational ap...

Estimating the Confidence of Statistical Model Based Shape Prediction
We propose a method for estimating confidence regions around shapes predicted from partial observations, given a statistical shape model. Our method relies on the estimation of the...

Adapting Active Shape Models for 3D Segmentation of Tubular Structures in Medical Images
Active Shape Models (ASM) have proven to be an effective approach for image segmentation. In some applications, however, the linear model of gray level appearance around a contour ...
