Poor convergence to concave shapes is a main limitation of snakes as a standard segmentation and shape modelling technique. The gradient of the external energy of the snake represe...
In this paper, we address the problems of deformable object matching (alignment) and segmentation with cluttered background. We propose a novel hierarchical log-linear model (HLLM...

In this paper we present a hierarchical, learning-based approach for automatic and accurate liver segmentation from 3D CT volumes. We target CT volumes that come from largely dive...

We propose a shape population metric that reflects the interdependencies between points observed in a set of examples. It provides a notion of topology for shape and appearance m...
We describe a technique for reconstructing probable occluded surfaces from 3-D range images. The technique exploits the fact that many objects possess shape symmetries that can be...
