Characterising shape patterns using features derived from best-fitting ellipsoids

作者:

Highlights:

• A method is developed to characterise highly irregular shape patterns.

• Features are defined based on best-fitting ellipsoids.

• The method is demonstrated successfully on three biomedical data sets.

• Shape patterns are learned automatically from the data.

• Landmark points are not required.
