[ITK] [ITK-users] ASM and AAM in ITK

[Timothee Evain]

Thanks a lot Ziv!

I will take a look into that library. From a quick search, I'm not sure it will be able to model the intensity of the data, I will see.
Anyway, this project is a quite interesting contribution to statistical modelling with it implementation-independant model approach, and deserve to be known. Thanks for the hint :)

Hi Tim,

Before you continue on this path I would recommend that you take a look at
the Statismo project (http://www.si-cas.com/ncssm/software.htm) . It may
be doing what you want, to quote from their github documentation "Although
the main focus of statismo lies on shape modeling, it is designed such
that it supports any kind of PCA based statistical model, including
statistical deformation models and intensity models."

It is built on top of ITK.

    hope this helps
           Ziv
