Shape and Deformable Modelling in Biomedical Image Analysis
(Special session in International Conference on Mathematical
and Computational Biomedical Engineering)
Chairs: Xianghua Xie ([log in to unmask])
Majid Mirmehdi ([log in to unmask])
Important Dates
Submission: 28th February 2009
(max 4 pages, http://www.compbiomed.net)
Registration: 31st April 2009
Meeting: 29th June - 1st July 2009
Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version
to a special issue in Communications in Numerical Methods in
Engineering.
Deformable modelling is a powerful tool in extracting biological
form, structure, and motion patterns. It is particularly suitable
for non-rigid objects and has been widely used to measure and
model biological shape and shape evolution in medical data. Shape
extraction and analysis show enormous promise in, for example,
understanding biological function and disease progresion. This
symposia is devoted to the discussion of recent advances in shape
analysis and deformable modelling, in particular, for biomedical
data processing and understanding. Contributions presenting
recent work on shape representation, extraction, learning,
classification and dynamic modelling are particularly welcome.
The technical topics include, but are not limited to:
• Shape Representation and Learning
• Shape Matching, Classification, and Registration
• Active Shape Model and Active Apperance Model
• Active Contour and Surface Model
• Partial Differential Equations
• Level Set Methods
• Variational Methods
• Anatomical and Biological Structure Segmentation
• Shape Based Motion Analysis
• Functional, Molecular, Metabolic Image Analysis
• Other Biomedical Applications
