is an important problem in computer-assisted orthopedic surgery (CAOS). As one typical
example, the pre-operative space where the patient-specific surgical plan is usually made …

As a kind of structurally complex workpiece, open impellers made by welding are widely
used in mining and light industries. The traditional robot programming method for open …

Point set registration (PSR) is an essential problem in the field of surgical navigation and

Due to the fact that point clouds are always corrupted by significant noise and large
transformations, aligning two point clouds by deep neural networks is still challenging. This …

Objective: The precise alignment of full and partial 3D point sets is a crucial technique in
computer-aided orthopedic surgery, but remains a significant challenge. This registration …

Registration of two-point sets (PSs) is an essential problem in research areas of robotics,
computer vision, measurements, and computer-assisted interventions (CAIs). Registration …

The decline of point cloud registration efficiency caused by bad initial position and
disordered registration direction has not been effectively solved. Herein, we propose a …

The aim of this chapter is to explore the state-of-the-art kinematic concepts in robotic
manipulators that are used for minimally invasive surgery (MIS). It delves into the philosophy …

Patient-to-medical image registration is a crucial factor that affects the accuracy of image-
guided ENT-and neurosurgery systems. In this study, a novel registration protocol that …
