Abstract

We describe a method of pairwise 3D surface correspondence for the automated generation of landmarks on a set of examples from a class of shape. We show how the pairwise corresponder can be used in an extension of an existing framework for establishing dense correspondences between a set of training examples to build a 3D statistical model. The framework relies upon additional algorithms for the production of surface paths between vertices on a polyhedral mesh, and these are described. An example statistical model is shown for the left lateral ventricle of the brain.
