The human hand is an important interface with complex shape and movement. In virtual reality and gaming applications the use of an individualized rather than generic hand represen...
Anatomical shapes present a unique problem in terms of accurate representation and medical image segmentation. Three-dimensional (3D) statistical shape models have been extensivel...

Many techniques of knowledge-based segmentation consist of building statistical models that describe the deformations of the structure of interest, and then fit these models to t...

Active contour and surface models, also known as deformable models, constitute a class of powerful segmentation techniques. Geometric deformable models implemented via level-set m...
This paper presents a new deformable modeling strategy aimed at integrating shape and appearance in a unified space. If we think traditional deformable models as "active cont...
