Two new arXiv papers introduce advanced statistical frameworks for analyzing shapes in images, particularly focusing on medical applications. The first paper, "Multivariate Planar Curves: A Statistical Framework for Shape Analysis in Images," presents a method to jointly model multiple object contours in an image, preserving inter-component information crucial for diagnosis. This approach was demonstrated to improve classification accuracy in cardiomegaly detection from chest X-rays. The second paper, "Deep Shape Regression for Planar Curves with Multimodal Covariates," proposes a deep learning model for analyzing open planar curves, capable of handling multimodal and high-dimensional covariates, and was applied to hippocampal outlines from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative cohort.
