Steve Pizer has made a notable research accomplishment that was published in the Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision entitled “Interior Object Geometry via Fitted Frames.” He writes: “The culmination of 45 years of research has developed a computer representation for anatomic objects, the evolutionary s-rep, that is designed to support statistical operations, such as diagnosis (classification) based on shape properties. It is tested to do that particularly effectively. An important geometric underpinning is the discovery of how to produce shape properties not only on the boundary but also in the interior of an object.” Steve is a Kenan Distinguished Professor of Computer Science at the University of North Carolina. He is in his 59th year there and will be retiring from that position on June 30, 2026. However, thereafter he will be continuing his research in anatomic shape analysis at a leisurely pace as research professor of computer science. Contact Steve at [email protected].
