Abstract:Shape analysis of biological data is crucial for investigating the morphological variations during development or evolution. However, conventional approaches for quantifying shapes are difficult as exemplified by the ambiguity in the landmark-based method in which anatomically prominent “landmarks” are manually annotated. In this study, a morphological regulated variational autoencoder (Morpho-VAE) is proposed that conducts image-based shape analysis using imaging processing through a deep-learning framework, … Show more
