In this paper we describe a new system for the 3d reconstruction anddistribution on the Internet of models for vessel structures. The system is specifically designed to support measurements of medical interest. We describe 2d and3d segmentation methods implemented and the procedure used to build interactive VRML97 models. The experimental section presents a comparison between segmentation methods, and a first application to surgical planning for endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms.

We present a web-based prototype for the interactive search of items in quality electronic catalogues. Once a subset of images meeting the user's information needs have been identified, these images can be displayed in a virtual exhibition that can be visited interactively by the user exploiting VRML technology.

A "Collaboratory" is a lightweight application component allowing project teams to collaborate and share data and insight while distributed over a network, using intuitive visual navigation techniques. The innovation can be summarised as the integration of network technology used in collaborative games with a 3ddata navigation technique based on a low-level, fine-grained, customisable "atomic" visualization component infrastructure. The paper focuses on 3d medical imaging tools describing a Collaboratory implementation of a "Volume Viewer". This paper is also a blueprint to inform researchers and software engineers about the possibility to extend existing visualisation applications to support collaboration, e.g. making it easier to "collaboratize" visualization applications based on Microsoft's directX class library.

Vision and hearing are inherently different perceptual systems. The vision system is tuned to extract spatial information of surfaces and edges, while the auditory system is better suited to detect the temporal behavior of sources. However there are spatial audio effects that can be used to overcome some limitations of visual displays, especially when time-varying complex scenarios have to be rendered, and when the visual display devices are limited in size and complexity. We review some spatial sound effects and give hints for applications in information visualization.

For the first time since computers were available, the major pieces of the puzzle are in place to deliver interactive 3d to the average end user. Yet, with the exception of games and some E-commerce applications, the take-up of 3d remains slow. This paper surveys current issues related to the potential of 3d for IST applications and gives an overview of activities most relevant to 3d research. The EU's 6/sup th/ Framework Programme is also briefly discussed and orientations for the integration of imaging and3d research are proposed.

In this paper, we propose an efficient low complexity geometry compression scheme for densely sampled irregular 3d meshes. This scheme is based on 3d multiresolution analysis (3ddiscrete wavelet transform) and includes a model-based bit allocation process across the wavelet subbands. Coordinates of 3d wavelet coefficients are processed separately and statistically modeled by a generalized Gaussian distribution. This permits an efficient allocation even at low bitrate with very low complexity. Moreover, we introduce predictive geometry coding of LF subbands by taking into account the correlation of the coarsest level coefficients. Finally, we use the EBCOT coder to efficiently encode the quantized coefficients.

We propose a fast 3d model acquisition system that aligns intensity anddepth images, and reconstructs a textured3d mesh. 3d views are registered with shape alignment based on intensity gradient constraints and a global registration algorithm. We reconstruct the 3d model using a new cubic ray projection merging algorithm which takes advantage of a novel data structure: the linked voxel space. Finally, we present experiments to test the accuracy of our approach on 3d face modeling using real-time stereo images.

This paper addresses the problem of segmenting 3d scan data of human body (HB) into sets corresponding to the HB parts, where the posture of the body is unknown. The approach consists of recognizing first the posture, then exploiting the information retrieved from the posture recognition into the segmentation process. For the recognition, the wavelet transform coefficients are suggested as new 3d shape descriptors. Then segmentation technique integrating the model posture information is presented. The segmentation results are illustrated on human body scans of different postures.

Volume rendering is a well-developed technology for visualization. It had been used for medical datavisualization in both research and clinic. The massive growths of the Internet and the World Wide Web lead us to a completely new way of looking at the development anddistribution of visualization software. Using Java as programming language, we developed the 3d applet that rendered medical images on Internet. The client upload their 2d images, visit WWW server to get the 3d results of renderings. It changes traditional computing mode and realizes the share of information. It provides the tool for telemedicine visualization. different organ images are shown in this paper. The results are clear enough to be involved for clinical diagnosis and proved this method to be practical.

In this paper we present a simple technique to approximate the volume enclosed by a given triangle mesh with a set of overlapping ellipsoids. This type of geometry representation allows us to approximately reconstruct 3d-shapes from a very small amount of information being transmitted. The two central questions that we address are: how can we compute optimal fitting ellipsoids that lie in the interior of a given triangle mesh and how do we select the most significant (least redundant) subset from a huge number of candidate ellipsoids. Our major motivation for computing ellipsoiddecompositions is the robust transmission of geometric objects where the receiver can reconstruct the 3d-shape even if part of the data gets lost during transmission.
