NIH-Funded Project: Shape-Based Retrieval of 3D Craniofacial Data:
We are developing tools for analysis of 3D data, both 3D meshes and
3D (CT) volumes. We are expected to organize our tools and provide
them to the FaceBase Consortium, sponsored by NIH. The initial work
would include cleaning and organizing already-developed code, producing
documentation (tutorials), and then implementing a GUI,
probably workflow-based, to allow users to easily try our tools.
(This is not trivial; the users are quite varied in skills,
from professional programmers to surgeons.)
Required skills: Java, C/C++, Linux (scripts, makefiles, etc),
calling C and Matlab from Java
Desirable: Matlab, CVS, VTK
Image processing skills would be nice, but not required. We will
teach you.
Can lead to research projects and further employment.
