• Abstract: In the wood industry, logs are commonly quality screened by discrete X-ray scans on a moving conveyor belt from a few source positions. Typically, two-dimensional (2D) slice-wise measurements are obtained by a sequential scanning geometry. Each 2D slice alone does not carry sufficient information for a three-dimensional tomographic reconstruction in which biological features of interest in the log are well preserved. In the present work, we propose a learned iterative reconstruction method based on the Learned Primal-Dual neural network, suited for sequential scanning geometries. Our method accumulates information between neighbouring slices, instead of only accounting for single slices during reconstruction. Our quantitative and qualitative evaluations with as few as five source positions show that our method yields reconstructions of logs that are sufficiently accurate to identify biological features like knots (branches), heartwood and sapwood.

  We propose a novel Cycle-Consistent Domain Adaptation Network (C2DA-Net) to efficiently transfer the knowledge learned from high-quality isotropic volumes for accurate tissue segmentation of thick-slice scans. Our C2DA-Net can fully utilize a small set of annotated isotropic volumes to guide tissue segmentation on unannotated thick-slice scans.

• Enforcing 3D Topological Constraints in Composite Objects via Implicit Functions [60.56741715207466]
  Medical applications often require accurate 3D representations of complex organs with multiple parts, such as the heart and spine. This paper introduces a novel approach to enforce topological constraints in 3D object reconstruction using deep implicit signed distance functions. We propose a sampling-based technique that effectively checks and enforces topological constraints between 3D shapes by evaluating signed distances at randomly sampled points throughout the volume.

  3D reconstruction techniques have widely been used for digital documentation of archaeological fragments. We aim to develop a portable, high- throughput, and accurate reconstruction system for efficient digitization of fragments excavated in archaeological sites. We develop a new batch-based matching algorithm that pairs the front and back sides of the fragments, and a new Bilateral Boundary ICP algorithm that can register partial scans sharing very narrow overlapping regions.

  This paper proposes a self-supervised deep learning approach for discovering landmarks from images that can directly be used as a shape descriptor for subsequent analysis. We use landmark-driven image registration as the primary task to force the neural network to discover landmarks that register the images well. The proposed method circumvents segmentation and preprocessing and directly produces a usable shape descriptor using just 2D or 3D images.

  Face recognition is a widely accepted biometric verification tool, as the face contains a lot of information about the identity of a person. In this study, a 2-step neural-based pipeline is presented for matching 3D facial shape to multiple DNA-related properties. Results obtained by a 10-fold cross-validation for biometric verification show that combining multiple properties leads to stronger biometric systems.
