This paper presents a new framework for shape modeling and analysis. A shape instance is described by a curvature-based shape descriptor. A Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) is ...
The goal of this work is to develop an approach to shape representation and classification that will allow us to detect and quantify differences in shape of anatomical structures d...
Reliable segmentation of the left ventricle is a long sought objective in medical imaging for automatic retrieval of anatomical and pathological measurements and detection of malf...
The assessment of surgical skills for Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has traditionally been conducted with visual observation and objective scoring. This paper presents a practic...
