Project Description

Objective

Integrate shape matching and shape regression tools into Slicer as command line applications.

Approach, Plan

The first step is to integrate shape matching/registration into Slicer as a command line application. Some key issues to resolve:

• What input parameters should be made available to user?
• Input/Output format: Paths to data or Slicer Models?
• Output is a time series of surfaces, which is not easily explored in Slicer. Should output be simplified? Output could be the deformed source and/or the deformation field that transforms source to target.
• Dependencies on external libraries and licensing issues.

Progress

Summary
