This paper introduces a new method for shape registration by matching vector distance functions. The vector distance function representation is more flexible than the conventional...
Analyses of fMRI brain data are often based on statistical tests applied to each voxel or use summary statistics within a region of interest (such as mean or peak activation). Thes...
