Mathematical Tools for Shape Analysis and Description

چکیده
is book is a guide for researchers and practitioners to the new frontiers of 3D shape analysis and the complex mathematical tools most methods rely on. e target reader includes students, researchers and professionals with an undergraduate mathematics background, who wish to understand the mathematics behind shape analysis. e authors begin with a quick review of basic concepts in geometry, topology, differential geometry, and proceed to advanced notions of algebraic topology, always keeping an eye on the application of the theory, through examples of shape analysis methods such as 3D segmentation, correspondence, and retrieval. A number of research solutions in the field come from advances in pure and applied mathematics, as well as from the re-reading of classical theories and their adaptation to the discrete setting. In a world where disciplines (fortunately) have blurred boundaries, the authors believe that this guide will help to bridge the distance between theory and practice.

ISOGEOMETRIC STRUCTURAL SHAPE OPTIMIZATION USING PARTICLE SWARM ALGORITHM
One primary problem in shape optimization of structures is making a robust link between design model (geometric description) and analysis model. This paper investigates the potential of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) for solving this problem. The generic framework of shape optimization of structures is presented based on Isogeometric analysis. By discretization of domain via NURBS functions, the a...
متن کاملA mathematical morphology approach to cell shape analysis
Morphological analysis of cells (size, shape, texture, etc.) is fundamental in quantitative cytology. Anomalies and variations from the typical cell are associated with pathological situations, e.g., useful in cancer diagnosis, in cellbased screening of new active molecules, etc. Mathematical morphology is a nonlinear image processing technique based on minimum and maximum operations [SER82], i...

The possibility of hydroxylamine electrochemical determination over a CoO(OH)-modified electrode, accompanied by complex-formation, has been studied from the theoretical point of view. The correspondent mathematical model has been developed and analyzed by means of linear stability theory and bifurcation analysis. It was shown that CoO(OH) may be applied as an efficient electrode modifier i...
متن کاملSoftware Tools for the Analysis of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become the most popular method for imaging of brain functions. Currently, there is a large variety of software packages for the analysis of fMRI data, each providing many features for users. Since there is no single package that can provide all the necessary analyses for the fMRI data, it is helpful to know the features of each software package. ...
متن کاملApplication of Shape Analysis on 3D Images - MRI of Renal Tumors
The image recognotion and the classification of objects according to the images are more in focus of interests, especially in medicine. A mathematical procedure allows us, not only to evaluate the amount of data per se, but also ensures that each image is pro- cessed similarly. Here in this study, we propose the power of shape analysis, in conjunction with neural networks for reducing white n...
