Aug 4 (BC Day)
Aug 8 (New York)
Jul 28 - Aug 1Create mesh from segmented Ian tongue
... generate smooth surface in Amira
... Perl script to convert to OBJ file
Morph Ian tongue mesh into Ian MRI and OW MRI
... use GUI with segmented Ian tongue mesh as reference model
... calculate error with LW segmentations
Compare OW volunteer MRI with actual OSA patient MRI
... performed LW segmentation to see differences
Jul 21 - Jul 25Overweight volunteer vs. Ian
... performed LW segmentation of tongues
... compared in Amira
Merged MRI sets (w/ Bruno)
... registered and merged data sets using different settings
... performed LW segmentation of tongues
... compared in Amira
Wrap up unimodal segmentation
... summarized work on sagittal-dataset-only segmentation
Jul 14 - Jul 18Error between warp result and LW output
... error method #1: sum of shortest distance from each warp point to a LW point
... error method #2: sum of shortest perpendicular distance from each warp face to a LW point
... executed more warp trials using different sets of corresponding landmark points
... got error for each landmark set to find set with minimal error
Landmark selection GUI
... modified and stripped down warp GUI for Hui's usage in selecting/exporting landmark points
Wrap up unimodal segmentation
... summarized work on sagittal-dataset-only segmentation
Jul 7 - Jul 11Jul 7 - Jul 11 (Hawaii)
Jul 1 - Jul 4Error between warp result and LW output
... 3D Livewire revisit: resegmented tongue
... visually compare results in Amira
... translation transform on LW output to align with warp result
... calculated error: for all intermediate warp result points, sum distances to closest LW surface points
Artisynth export
... tweaked settings (eg. g-force, muscle excitations) in Artisynth so tongue shape is similar to MRI position
... exported new nodes and muscle excitations
