Abstract
This paper describes a new method for determining correspondence between
points on pairs of surfaces based on shape using a combination of
geodesic distance and surface curvature.
An initial sparse set of corresponding points is generated
using a shape-based matching procedure.
Geodesic interpolation is employed in order to
capture the complex surface. In addition,
surface correspondence and triangulation are computed simultaneously
in a hierarchical way.
Results applied to human cerebral cortical surfaces
are shown to evaluate the approach.
