dc.description.abstract | Our work purpose is to elaborate a geometric and motional model for deformable solids, known only by a very small number of general crosssections images. We start from a generic 3D model of the studied solid we distort according to detected boundaries in the above mentioned images. To give the solid motion model, our work uses moving point constraints and inbetweening methods on an image sequence : we select keyframes on which we interpolate characteristic points. Then we use Coons patches to compute the inbetween frames and realize an animation? On an echocardiographic application, we obtained good results in the model precision and detected edges by image processing similar to cardiologists' hand drawn edges. Besides, the model distortion, characteristic points tracking and 2D motion simulation are encouraging, although improvements are necessary. | en_US |
