The global shape prior knowledge has been exploited by many image segmentation approaches in order to improve segmentation results when there are such problems as occlusion, clutt...
Statistical shape modeling using point distribution models (PDMs) has been studied extensively for segmentation and other image analysis tasks. Methods investigated in the literat...
