Object classification by functional parts [PDF]

Proceedings. First International Symposium on 3D Data Processing Visualization and Transmission, 2003
Object classification needs to address not only the changes resulting from various viewpoints but also the different shapes that can be classified into the same category. We present a new framework and its implementation for generic object classification from raw range images, combining structural and functional concepts.

Infant Embryonal CNS Tumors: Molecular Insights and Treatment Considerations for Contemporary Pediatric Neuro‐Oncology

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Embryonal tumors comprise the majority of malignant central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms diagnosed in children under 3 years of age. Compared with their counterparts in older children, these tumors exhibit distinct molecular biology and a more aggressive clinical phenotype, while their management is complicated by the heightened ...
