In this paper, we design linear time algorithms to recognize and determine topological invariants such as genus and homology groups in 3D. These invariants can be used to identify...
Segmentation in ultrasound data is a very challenging field of research in medical image processing. This article presents a method for automatic segmentation of biopsy needles and...

We describe a means to automatically and efficiently isolate the outer surface of the entire heart in Computer Tomography (CT) cardiac scans. Isolating the entire heart allows the...

In this paper, we propose to address the semanticoriented 3D mesh hierarchical segmentation problem, using enhanced topological skeletons [18]. This high level information drives ...
Previous works on range image segmentation concentrate on surface patches that can be well represented by certain mathematical functions. In this paper we consider the more qualit...
