A model for concentric tube continuum robots under applied wrenches
Abstract— Continuum robots made from telescoping precurved elastic tubes enable base-mounted actuators to specify the curved shapes of robots as thin as standard surgical needles...

On Utilising Template and Feature-Based Correspondence in Multi-view Appearance Models
In principle, the recovery and reconstruction of a 3D object from its 2D view projections require the parameterisation of its shape structure and surface re ectance properties. Exp...

Expression invariant 3D face recognition with a Morphable Model
We describe an expression-invariant method for face recognition by fitting an identity/expression separated 3D Morphable Model to shape data. The expression model greatly improve...
