Shape spaces can be endowed with the structure of Riemannian manifolds; this allows one to compute, for example, Euler-Lagrange equations and geodesic distance for such spaces. Un...
Osteoporosis is a bone disease characterized by a reduction in bone mass, resulting in an increased risk of fractures. To diagnose the osteoporosis accurately, bone mineral densit...

This paper proposes to use the Laplace-Beltrami spectrum (LBS) as a global shape descriptor for medical shape analysis, allowing for shape comparisons using minimal shape preproces...

In this paper we introduce a new method for computing the orientation for compound shapes. If the method is applied to single component shapes the computed orientation is consisten...
Abstract. Analysis of shape variability is important for diagnostic classification and understanding of biological processes. We present a novel shape analysis approach based on a ...
