Human head modeling using NURBS method

Abstract

Human head modeling is the foremost research topic of the multi-modal fusion for medical information in brain function research based on EEG/fMRI. Finding an effective way to construct the geometric model of human head is one of the focal point of research. Here a new method based on NURBS surface reconstruction is proposed. In the experiment, surface interpolation is employed, and a fairly good result is got with comparatively less points. Thus NURBS is proved a rapid and effective method for head modeling. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
