An Optimization Method for Elastic Shape Matching

چکیده
This note addresses the following shape matching problem: given a ‘template’ shape, numerically described by means of a computational mesh, and a ‘target’ shape, known only via a signed distance function to its boundary, we aim at deforming iteratively the mesh of the template shape into a computational mesh of the target shape. To achieve this goal, we rely on techniques from shape optimization. Under the sole assumption that both shapes share the same topology, the desired transformation is realized as a sequence of elastic displacements, which are obtained by minimizing an energy functional based on the distance between the two shapes. The proposed method has been implemented in a finite elements setting and numerical examples in two and three dimensions are presented to illustrate its efficiency.

Shape Matching by Elastic Deformation
In this paper we present a new one-dimensional shape matching technique based on elastic deformation of a model or template. Deformations of the given template are introduced as a way to improve the matching with the image data. A trade-o is made between the amount of deformation and a gure of merit that accounts for the match. This approach yields a new optimization functional so that the opti...

متن کاملSimulation-Based Joint Estimation of Body Deformation and Elasticity Parameters
Physically-based elastic body simulation has been applied to medical image registration to enforce physical constraints, since each organ in the image can be viewed as an elastic body. However, it requires hand adjustment for the material properties to achieve the desired output shape, and the boundary conditions (forces or displacements on boundary nodes) cannot be acquired directly from the i...
متن کاملShape Aware Matching of Implicit Surfaces based on Thin Shell Energies
A shape sensitive, variational approach for the matching of surfaces considered as thin elastic shells is investigated. The elasticity functional to be minimized takes into account two different types of nonlinear energies: a membrane energy measuring the rate of tangential distortion when deforming the reference shell into the template shell, and a bending energy measuring the bending under th...
متن کاملAirfoil Shape Optimization with Adaptive Mutation Genetic Algorithm
An efficient method for scattering Genetic Algorithm (GA) individuals in the design space is proposed to accelerate airfoil shape optimization. The method used here is based on the variation of the mutation rate for each gene of the chromosomes by taking feedback from the current population. An adaptive method for airfoil shape parameterization is also applied and its impact on the optimum desi...
