We propose a novel trace-based method to extract vessel axes from gray-scale angiograms without preliminary segmentations. Our method traces the axes on an optimization framework w...
Abstract. Multi-figure m-reps allow us to represent and analyze a complex anatomical object by its parts, by relations among its parts, and by the object itself as a whole entity. ...

We consider the problem of computing the Euclidean projection of a vector of length n onto a closed convex set including the 1 ball and the specialized polyhedra employed in (Shal...
Nonlinear ICA may not result in nonlinear blind source separation, since solutions to nonlinear ICA are highly non-unique. In practice, the nonlinearity in the data generation pro...
We introduce a robust probabilistic approach to modeling shape contours based on a lowdimensional, nonlinear latent variable model. In contrast to existing techniques that use obj...
