dc.description.abstract | The analysis of shape represented as surface meshes is an important tool in anthropology and biomedicine for the study of aging, post-treatment development or sexual dimorphism. Most approaches rely on nonrigid registration using manually placed homologous landmarks, it is however often the case that some regions cannot be landmarked due to the lack of clear anatomical features. We therefore present a method of analyzing and visualizing the variability of a set of surface models that does not rely on landmarks for feature matching and uses coherent point drift (CPD), a nonrigid registration algorithm, instead. Our approach is based on the topology transfer of one arbitrarily selected base mesh to all other meshes with the use of CPD. The procedure ensures the identical meanings of corresponding vertices across the sample and allows the use of multivariate statistics even with shapes that would be difficult to process with methods that rely on landmarks for feature-matching. | en_US |
