Statistical shape models are often learned from examples based on landmark correspondences between annotated examples. A method is proposed for learning such contours with inconsistent bifurcations and loops. It evaluated the task of segmenting tibial in knee radiographs. Results presented using various features, distance weighted K nearest neighbours differing eigenspace constraints.
