Project

Objective

  • In our recent work[1] on studying the variation of nuclear structure in tumor microenvironments [2], we have used SPHARM-PDM [3] to model 3D nuclear shape. We are interested in using itkQuadEdgeMesh as the mesh representation to this end and will be evaluating the use of this class for our system.

Approach, Plan

  • Use implementation of SPHARM-PDM [3] as a starting point
  • Evaluate efficacy of itkQuadEdgeMesh to compute other descriptors [4] of nuclear surface

Progress

  • Current system for statistical shape analysis of nuclear morphology uses [3] to generate the representation
  • With Arnaud Gelas, initiated work on using itkQuadEdgeMesh for generating and representing PDM for nuclei
  • With Manasi Datar, initiated experiments on using particle based correspondence for generating PDMs
  • With Marco Ruiz, used GWE to set up the PDM generation on a large dataset of nuclei
