A bipartite graph approach to retrieve similar 3D models with different resolution and types of cardiomyopathies

作者:

Highlights:

• Similarity methods based on graphs is underexplored in the literature.

• Retrieval challenge: Cardiomyopathy disease causes subtle shape changes on heart.

• Novel approach based on SPHARM and network flow as similarity measure.

• Our method achieved more than 90% of precision and retrieval for hypertrophic cases.

• Patient age and gender affect the retrieval performance.
