Abstract
This paper presents a new method for image segmentation by deforming the object shape in a template. The deformation process is controlled using a thin-plate spline kernel based regularization method. The proposed method is especially useful for 2D-based segmentation of 3D medical images by treating segmented slices. We have applied the proposed method to extract the scalp contours in brain cryosection images with very encouraging results.
