We investigate in this article the rigid registration of large sets of points, generally sampled from surfaces. We formulate this problem as a general Maximum-Likelihood (ML) estim...
Deformable 3–D models can be represented either as explicit or implicit surfaces. Explicit surfaces, such as triangulations or wire-frame models, are widely accepted in the Comp...
In this paper, we extend a computationally efficient framework for real-time 3D tracking and segmentation to support deformable subdivision surfaces. Segmentation is performed in a...
We consider the ICP (iterative closest point) algorithm, which may in general be used for moving `active' elements such as curves and surfaces towards geometric objects whose...
Abstract. In the field of image-guided liver surgery (IGLS), the initial registration of the intra-operative organ surface with preoperative tomographic image data is performed on...
