Voronoi-Based Segmentation of Cells on Image Manifolds
Abstract. We present a method for finding the boundaries between adjacent regions in an image, where “seed” areas have already been identified in the individual regions to be...

Shape Based Segmentation of Anatomical Structures in Magnetic Resonance Images
Standard image based segmentation approaches perform poorly when there is little or no contrast along boundaries of different regions. In such cases, segmentation is largely perfor...

Elastic Interaction Models for Active Contours and Surfaces
In this paper, we propose a new framework for active contour and surface models. Based on the concepts of the elastic interaction between line defects in solids, this framework de...

Real-Time Simulation of Deformable Soft Tissue Based on Mass-Spring and Medial Representation
In this paper, we present a novel deformable model for soft tissue simulation in a real-time manner. The innovative model consists of two submodels: the surface one and the interna...

Active Contours Under Topology Control Genus Preserving Level Sets
We present a novel framework to exert topology control over a level set evolution. Level set methods offer several advantages over parametric active contours, in particular automat...

A Hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian Approach for Thickness, Correspondence, and Gridding of Annular Tissues
—We present a novel approach to efficiently compute thickness, correspondence, and gridding of tissues between two simply connected boundaries. The solution of Laplace’s equat...

Locally Switching Between Cost Functions in Iterative Non-rigid Registration
In non-rigid image registration problems, it can be difficult to construct a single cost function that adequately captures concepts of similarity for multiple structures, for examp...

Registration of PET and MR Hand Volumes Using Bayesian Networks
Abstract. A method for the non-rigid, multi-modal, registration of volumetric scans of human hands is presented. PET and MR scans are aligned by optimising the configuration of a ...
