We develop a computational model of shape that extends existing Riemannian models of shape of curves to multidimensional objects of general topological type. We construct shape sp...

Vertebra shape can effectively describe various pathologies found in spine x-ray images. There are some critical regions on the shape contour which help determine whether the shap...

Abstract. Multi-figure m-reps allow us to represent and analyze a complex anatomical object by its parts, by relations among its parts, and by the object itself as a whole entity. ...
