With the recent success of computer vision and deep learning, remarkable progress has
been achieved on automatic personal recognition using vein biometrics. However, collecting …

Favouring or thwarting the development of a vascular network is essential in fields as
diverse as oncology, cardiovascular disease or tissue engineering. As a result …

Given the relevance of the inextricable coupling between microcirculation and physiology,
and the relation to organ function and disease progression, the construction of synthetic …

In this paper, we introduce a new framework for generating synthetic vascular trees, based
on rigorous model-based mathematical optimization. Our main contribution is the …

Here we document the deterministic evolution of capillary networks that morph by
connecting more and more branches to water sources. The network grows with the objective …

Biological tissues receive oxygen and nutrients from blood vessels by developing an
indispensable supply and demand relationship with the blood vessels. We implemented a …

We present a data-driven generative framework for synthesizing blood vessel 3D geometry.
This is a challenging task due to the complexity of vascular systems, which are highly …

Angiogenesis, arteriogenesis, and pruning are revascularization processes essential to our
natural vascular development and adaptation, as well as central players in the onset and …

The cardiovascular system plays a key role in the transport of nutrients, ensuring a
continuous supply of all cells of the body with the metabolites necessary for life. The blood …

Tumour angiogenesis leads to the formation of blood vessels that are structurally and
spatially heterogeneous. Poor blood perfusion, in conjunction with increased hypoxia and …
