Polyrigid and Polyaffine Transformations: A New Class of Diffeomorphisms for Locally Rigid or Affine Registration
We introduce a novel family of geometrical transformations for the non-rigid registration of medical images, called polyrigid and polyaffine. These transformations have nice mathem...

Tensor Splats: Visualising Tensor Fields by Texture Mapped Volume Rendering
Abstract. We describe a new method for visualising tensor fields using a textured mapped volume rendering approach, tensor-splatting. We use an image order method to calculate the ...
