Geometric constraint analysis and synthesis: methods for improving shape-based registration accuracy
Shape-based registration is a process for estimating the transformation between two shape representations of an object. It is used in many image-guided surgical systems to establis...

Physically-based model for simulating the human trunk respiration movements
Abstract. We have developped a physically-based model where an object is represented by a set of mass points on its contour. Each object may be defined locally and physically usin...

Volumetric medical images segmentation using shape constrained deformable models
In this paper we address the problem of extracting geometric models from low contrast volumetric images, given a template or reference shape of that model. We proceed by deforming...

Image registration: convex weighting functions for histogram-based similarity measures
Recently the entropy-similarity measure has been introduced for the registration of image pairs prior to subtraction in medical imaging e.g. digital subtraction angiography (DSA). ...

Rigid registration of CT, MR and cryosection images using a GLCM framework
The majority of the available rigid registration measures are based on a 2-dimensional histogram of corresponding grey-values in the registered images. This paper shows that these ...
