Models that predict the soft tissue deformation caused by needle insertion could improve the accuracy of procedures such as brachytherapy and needle biopsy. Prior work on needle in...

This paper presents a needle-tissue interaction model that is a 3D extension of a prior work based on the finite element method. The model is also adapted to accommodate arbitrary ...

The purpose of this paper is to measure the variability of a population of white matter fiber bundles without imposing unrealistic geometrical priors. In this respect, modeling fib...

When given a small sample, we show that classification with SVM can be considerably enhanced by using a kernel function learned from the training data prior to discrimination. Thi...
We investigate a new, fast and provably convergentMAP reconstruction algorithm for emission tomography. The new algorithm, termed C-OSEM has its origin in the alternating algorith...
