Abstract. We present a segmentation method for vessels using an implicit deformable model with a soft shape prior. Blood vessels are challenging structures to segment due to their ...
Global shape information is an effective top-down complement
to bottom-up figure-ground segmentation as well
as a useful constraint to avoid drift during adaptive tracking.
We p...
Motivated by improving statistical shape analysis, this paper presents a novel landmark-based method for accurate shape correspondence, where the general goal is to align multiple...
Most 3D character editing tools are complex and non-intuitive. It takes lot of skill and labor from the artists to create even a draft 3D humanoid model. This paper proposes an int...
—Recovering the 3D shape of a nonrigid surface from a single viewpoint is known to be both ambiguous and challenging. Resolving the ambiguities typically requires prior knowledge...
