β¦ Synopsis
Taking advantage of the known, geometric structure of the data being fit, a generic model having this shape is used as an initial approximation.
The model is first globally sized and aligned with the data on the basis of the min/max box, principal axes and landmarks.
Once aligned, features embedded within the model, corresponding to pertinent characteristics of the data, are adjusted to better fit the data. Finally, vertices and weights of the rational B-spline are optimized to locally deform the model and approximate the data to within a specified tolerance. The feature based modelling approach is demonstrated in 2D by the fitting of facial profiles.

The parametric generalized linear model assumes that the conditional distribution of a response Y given a d-dimensional covariate X belongs to an exponential family and that a known transformation of the regression function is linear in X. In this paper we relax the latter assumption by considering
A novel method that allows the development of surface point-based three-dimensional statistical shape models is presented. Given a set of medical objects, a statistical shape model can be obtained by principal component analysis. This technique requires that a set of complex shaped objects is repres
