— We explore motion planning for a new class of highly flexible bevel-tip medical needles that can be steered to previously unreachable targets in soft tissue. Planning for thes...

We present a method for nonrigid registration of 2-D geometric shapes. Our contribution is twofold. First, we extend the classic chamfer-matching energy to a variational functional...
The paper deals with the problem of remeshing and fairing of undersampled areas (called ”holes”) in triangular meshes. In this work, we are particularly interested in meshes co...
We propose a novel method for reconstructing a complete 3D model of a given anatomy from minimal information. This reconstruction provides an appropriate intra-operative 3D visual...
This paper proposes a statistical model for fingerprint ridge orientations. The active fingerprint ridge orientation model (AFROM) iteratively deforms to fit the orientation fi...
