![]() If a joint has greater than a $360^\circ$ range of motion, then its It is faster to rotate the $60^\circ$ CW rather than the $300^\circ$ This isįor a robot to rotate from a heading of $30^\circ$ to $330^\circ$, $0^\circ$ is identical to $360^\circ$ or any multiple thereof. Rotations is that angles "wrap around", so that the direction at The immediate concern that one may have about 2D We will start by introducing topological concepts in terms of the space Topological connectivity propertiesĪre preserved under arbitrary invertible transformations, and hence theyĪre fundamental characteristics of the spaces themselves, and not simply To get a better understanding of rotations, we willįirst introduce little bit of topology, a branch of mathematics that To translations, rotations behave in a fundamentally different fashion Not only is it relatively difficult to visualize 3D rotations compared We will alsoĭiscuss how to represent continuous changes of rotation, and to Well, and there is no "ideal" rotation representation. All representations have some weaknesses as To a rotation transform however, certain representations are moreĬonvenient for certain tasks, like inversion, composition, In thisĬhapter we will discuss the meaning of rotation matrices in more detail,Īs well as the common representations of Euler angles, angle-axis formĪnd the related rotation vector form, and quaternions.Įach representation, in some sense, equivalent, since each may be mapped In a topological sense, meaning that elements of the space of rotationĭo not "connect" in the same way that normal points in space do. Although SO(3) is aģ-dimensional space, it is fundamentally distinct from Cartesian space Rotation representations in frequent use in robotics, aviation, CAD,Ĭomputer vision, and computer graphics. ![]() In SO(3) can be represented as 3x3 matrices, this is not usually the Application to extracting characterization correlation curves for locally controlled simulated shape trajectories demonstrates the stability of the proposed shape descriptor.Although the previous chapter discussed how three-dimensional rotations Intercorrelations between individual motion patterns are computed using the Laplace Beltrami operator eigenfunctions for spherical mapping. An Eulerian PDE approach is used to derive a shape descriptor from the curve-shortening flow. Independent of parameterization and minimizing the length of the geodesic curves, it stretches smoothly the surface curves towards a sphere by minimizing a Dirichlet energy. ![]() To cope with this dependency, we employed a new method for surface deformation analysis. However, the numerical computation of curvature is strongly dependant on the surface parameterization. Since we refer to organs as non flat surfaces, we have also used the mean curvature changes as metric to quantify surface evolution. Then, we performed a statistical characterization of organ dynamics from mechanical parameters such as mesh elongations and distortions. For a compact shape representation, the reconstructed temporal volumes were first used to establish subject-specific dynamical 4D mesh sequences using the LDDMM framework. We present a pipeline for characterization of bladder surface dynamics during deep respiratory movements. Because of the variability of abdominal organ shapes across time and subjects, the objective of this study is to go towards 3D dense velocity measurements to fully cover the entire surface and to extract meaningful features characterizing the observed organ deformations and enabling clinical action or decision.
