This paper preliminarily reports the robotic system working inside the gantry of vertical field Open MRI. This manipulator is new in terms of the application to vertical field Open...
Navier’s equations modelling linear elastic solid deformations are embedded within an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to compute a sequential Bayesian estimate for the Non-Rigid St...
This paper presents a new method for computing elastic and plastic deformations in the context of discrete deformable model-based registration. Internal forces are estimated by ave...
In this paper we present a technique for image deformation in which the user is given flexible control over what kind of deformation to perform. Freeform image extends available ...
We develop a new motion planning algorithm for a variant of a Dubins car with binary left/right steering and apply it to steerable needles, a new class of flexible beveltip medica...
