The shape of the mitral valve annulus is used in diagnostic and modeling applications, yet methods to accurately and reproducibly delineate the annulus are limited. This paper pres...

Smoothing of biomedical images should preserve gray-level transitions between adjacent tissues, while restoring contours consistent with anatomical structures. Anisotropic diffusi...
We present a model of a `gas of circles', the ensemble of regions in the image domain consisting of an unknown number of circles with approximately fixed radius and short ran...

In this paper, we consider the problem of reconstructing a shape from unorganized cross-sections. The main motivation for this problem comes from medical imaging applications wher...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to robust skeleton extraction. We use undirected graphs to model connectivity of the skeleton points. The graph topology remains unchang...
