Gerig, Guido | Tumor-induced structural radiometric asymmetry in brain images | This paper presents a general framework for analyzing structural and radiometric asymmetry in brain images. In a healthy brain, the left and right hemispheres are largely symmetric across the mid-sagittal plane. Brain tumors may belong to one or both of the following categories: mass-effect, in whic... | | 2001-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Multiscale medial shape-based analysis of image objects | Medial representation of a three-dimensional (3-D) object or an ensemble of 3-D objects involves capturing the object interior as a locus of medial atoms, each atom being two vectors of equal length joined at the tail at the medial point. Medial representation has a variety of beneficial properties,... | | 2003-01-01 |

Gerig, Guido | Discrimination analysis using Multi-object statistics of shape and pose | A main focus of statistical shape analysis is the description of variability of a population of geometric objects. In this paper, we present work towards modeling the shape and pose variability of sets of multiple objects. Principal geodesic analysis (PGA) is the extension of the standard technique ... | | 2007-01-01 |
