Robust similarity registration technique for volumetric shapes represented by characteristic functions

作者：

Highlights：

• We propose a similarity registration method that registers volumetric shapes.

• The method naturally handles shapes with topological differences.

• The method is validated by registering a lung database.

• The method can be applied to shape-based image segmentation.
