This paper presents a surface segmentation method which uses a simulated inflating balloon model to segment surface structure from volumetric data using a triangular mesh. The mod...
Heuristics are an increasingly popular solution method for combinatorial optimization problems. Heuristic use often frees the modeler from some of the restrictions placed on class...
In visual processing the ability to deal with missing and noisy information is crucial. Occlusions and unreliable feature detectors often lead to situations where little or no dir...
Fitting statistical models is a widely employed technique for the segmentation of medical images. While this approach gives impressive results for simple structures, shape models a...
Ants provide an attractive metaphor for robots that "cooperate" in performing complex tasks. What, however, are the algorithmic consequences of following this metaphor? ...
