Quantification and visualization of anatomical shape variability in different populations is essential for diagnosis and tracking progression of diseases. We present a new 3D med...
We present a method for two-sample hypothesis testing for statistical shape analysis using nonlinear shape models. Our approach uses a true multivariate permutation test that is in...

Statistical analysis of anatomical shape differences between two different populations can be reduced to a classification problem, i.e., learning a classifier function for assignin...

We propose a new approach to compute non-linear, intrinsic shape statistics and to incorporate them into a shape prior for an image segmentation task. Given a sample set of contou...
