Figure 4.2: Parameterization of quadrilateral. The square face (bold) on the<br />

physical surface (left) is mapped to the parameter space of unit sphere (right).<br />

The length of each edge ei in the quadrilateral equals to the corresponding<br />

center angle. Image adapted from Brechbühler et al. (1995).<br />

4.1.2 Reparameterization by rotation<br />

Since the parameterization is performed on each surface Xi individually, the cor-<br />

respon<strong>de</strong>nce across the training set {Xi : i = 1, · · · , n} is not guaranteed. In<br />

the implementation by Styner et al. (2006), the first <strong>de</strong>gree of SPHARM coeffi-<br />

cients for each shape is computed, <strong>and</strong> the first or<strong>de</strong>r ellipsoid is oriented to fit<br />

the shape surface. The parameterizations are rotated to coinci<strong>de</strong> both poles of the<br />

parameterization to that of the first or<strong>de</strong>r ellipsoid. In our implementation, the<br />

parameterizations are rotated to minimize the shape difference between surfaces<br />

up to similarity transformations based on the parameterization correspon<strong>de</strong>nce.<br />

The L2 distance between parameterizations can be <strong>de</strong>fined based on the st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />

Lebesgue measure on S 2<br />
