Quantification and visualization of anatomical shape variability in different populations is essential for diagnosis and tracking progression of diseases. We present a new 3D med...
We propose a novel Active Volume Model (AVM) which deforms in a free-form manner to minimize energy. Unlike Snakes and level-set active contours which only consider curves or surfa...
We present a novel histogram method for statistically characterizing the appearance of deformable models. In deformable model segmentation, appearance models measure the likelihoo...

Surgical simulation is the coming training method for medical education. The main reasons for this are the reduced risk for the patients and the easy repeatability of complicated ...
— This paper presents an analytical model for calculating the deformation behavior of an elastic, composite strut comprising any number of materials, which are represented by an ...
