The Point Distribution Model (PDM) has already proved useful for many tasks involving the location or tracking of deformable objects. A principal limitation lies in the fact that n...
We make some simple extensions to the Active Shape Model of Cootes et al. [4], and use it to locate features in frontal views of upright faces. We show on independent test data tha...
Vertebra shape can effectively describe various pathologies found in spine x-ray images. There are some critical regions on the shape contour which help determine whether the shap...

Abstract. In medical imaging, finding landmarks that provide biologically meaningful correspondences is often a challenging and time-consuming manual task. In this paper we propose...
This paper studies image alignment, the problem of learning a shape and appearance model from labeled data and efficiently fitting the model to a non-rigid object with large varia...
