Mechanics of Flexible Needles Robotically Steered through Soft Tissue
The tip asymmetry of a bevel-tip needle results in the needle naturally bending when it is inserted into soft tissue. This enables robotic needle steering, which can be used in me...

Learning Nonlinear Image Manifolds by Global Alignment of Local Linear Models
Appearance-based methods, based on statistical models of the pixel values in an image (region) rather than geometrical object models, are increasingly popular in computer vision. I...
