DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/GaML/5/">Geo
 metric Statistics for Computational Anatomy</a>\nby Xavier Pennec (INRIA) 
 as part of Workshop on Geometry and Machine Learning\n\n\nAbstract\nAt the
  interface of geometry\, statistics\, image analysis and medicine\, comput
 ational anatomy aims at analysing and modelling the biological variability
  of the organs shapes and their dynamics at the population level. The goal
  is to model the mean anatomy\, its normal variation\, its motion / evolut
 ion and to discover morphological differences between normal and pathologi
 cal groups. However\, shapes are usually described by equivalence classes 
 of sets of points\, curves\, surfaces or images under the action of a tran
 sformation group\, or directly by the diffeomorphic deformation of a templ
 ate in diffeomorphometry. This implies that they live in non-linear spaces
 \, while statistics where essentially developed in a Euclidean framework. 
 For instance\, adding or subtracting curves or surfaces does not really ma
 ke sense. Thus\, there is a need for redefining a consistent statistical f
 ramework for objects living in manifolds and Lie groups\, a field which is
  now called geometric statistics. The objective of this talk is to give an
  overview of the Riemannian computational tools and of simple statistics i
 n these spaces. The talk is motivated and illustrated by applications in m
 edical image analysis\, such as the regression of simple and efficient mod
 els of the atrophy of the brain in Alzheimer’s disease and the groupwise
  analysis of the motion of the heart in sequences of images using the para
 llel transport of surface and image deformations.\n
