ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for shape registration are described. In one aspect, training shape vectors are generated from images in an image database. The training shape vectors identify landmark points associated with one or more object types. A distribution of shape in the training shape vectors is represented as a prior of tangent shape in tangent shape space. The prior of tangent shape is then incorporated into a unified Bayesian framework for shape registration.
