A Non-Rigid Three-Dimensional Image Reconstruction Algorithm Based on Deformable Shape Reliability

Abstract: Most reconstruction algorithms for non-rigid three-dimensional (3D) images assume that non-rigidity can be represented as a linear combination of a fixed number of rigid bases. However, this ...
