A Pattern Theoretic Study of Biological Shapes
Chapter
The experiment has shown that the global shape model has enough descriptive power for the analysis of the real pictures we studied. For picture ensembles of the type studied the model will not need any essential ...

Chapter
Is it possible to mechanize human intuitive understanding of biological pictures that typically exhibit a lot of variability but also possess characteristic structure?
Chapter
The task of restoring a noisy image is facilitated by having models and algorithms already available for synthesis. When we developed the code it was both possible and convenient to use the same code for both ...
Chapter
The synthesis experiments have given us some insight in how the global shape models function and how they are influenced by their parameters. Synthesis experiments should not, of course, be considered as suffi...
Chapter
We shall now apply the random shape model to hand pictures and start with simulation experiments. This will help us to get an intuitive understanding of the model and the prior measure it represents, what is t...
Chapter
The prior induced by the Gibbs density (1.6) cannot be simulated directly for a general acceptor function and for n-values of practical interest. We shall therefore apply stochastic relaxation that has earlier be...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In the study of regular structures the map**s between them play a central role, just as is the case in algebra in general. One there-fore examines homomorphisms, isomorphisms, and deformations between regula...
