This paper describes a novel registration approach that is based on a combination of visual and 3D range information. To identify correspondences, local visual features obtained f...
Abstract. Endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (ESBS) requires high accuracy to ensure safe navigation of the critical anatomy at the anterior skull base. Current navigation sys...

In recent years Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods have been applied to handle some of the problems inherent to model-based tracking. In this paper two issues regarding SMC are ...
Particle filter is a powerful algorithm to deal with non-linear and non-Gaussian tracking problems. However the algorithm relying only upon one image cue often fails in challengin...
In this paper we present a new probabilistic feature-based approach to multi-hypothesis global localization and pose tracking. Hypotheses are generated using a constraintbased sea...
