Statistical models of deformations (SMD) capture the variability of deformations of a group of sample images, and they are often used to constrain deformable registration, thereby...
Statistical shape analysis techniques commonly employed in the medical imaging community, such as Active Shape Models or Active Appearance Models, rely on Principal Component Anal...

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 ...

We describe the use of compact support radial basis functions (CSRBFs) for simulation of soft tissue deformation. CSRBFs allow surface and volumetric deformations to be computed i...
