A Statisitical Shape Model for Deformable Surface Registration

چکیده
This short paper presents a deformable surface registration scheme which is based on the statistical shape modelling technique. The method consists of two major processing stages, model building and model fitting. A statistical shape model is first built using a set of training data. Then the model is deformed and matched to the new data by a modified iterative closest point (ICP) registration process. The proposed method is tested on real 3-D facial data from BU-3DFE database. It is shown that proposed method can achieve a reasonable result on surface registration, and can be used for patient position monitoring in radiation therapy and potentially can be used for monitoring of the radiation therapy progress for head and neck patients by analysis of facial articulation.

Automatic construction of statistical shape models using deformable simplex meshes with vector field convolution energy
BACKGROUND In the active shape model framework, principal component analysis (PCA) based statistical shape models (SSMs) are widely employed to incorporate high-level a priori shape knowledge of the structure to be segmented to achieve robustness. A crucial component of building SSMs is to establish shape correspondence between all training shapes, which is a very challenging task, especially i...
متن کاملGeneral Deformable Model Approach for Model-based Reconstruction
In this paper we propose a general approach for performing model-based reconstruction. The task consists in deforming a reference shape in order to extract a geometric model from a 3D dataset. To achieve this goal, two complementary approaches have been widely used. The deformable model framework locally applies internal and external forces to fit 3D data. The non-rigid registration framework i...

Although, most of the abnormal structures of human brain do not alter the shape of outer envelope of brain (surface), some abnormalities can deform the surface extensively. However, this may be a major problem in a surface-based registration technique, since two nearly identical surfaces are required for surface fitting process. A type of verification known as the circularity check for th...
متن کاملEvaluation of deformable image registration in HDR gynecological brachytherapy
Introduction: In brachytherapy, as in external radiotherapy, image-guidance plays an important role. For GYN treatments it is standard to acquire at least CT images and preferably MR images prior to each treatment and to calculate the dose of the day on each set of images. Then, the dose to the target and to the organs at risk (OAR) is calculated with worst case scenario from I...
