# BridgeLandmarks
*Fig.:* Landmarks on two bear skulls were marked as red points giving two landmark configurations. The "evolutionary change" from one configuration to the other can be modelled
by a stochastic differential equation for landmark trajectories in a Hamiltonian manifold. The animation illustrates the deformation the landmark configurations found by our method. Source for the pictures:

> Abstract: Stochastically evolving geometric systems are studied in geometric mechanics for modelling turbulence parts of multi-scale fluid flows and in shape analysis for stochastic evolutions of shapes of e.g. human organs. Recently introduced models involve stochastic differential equations that govern the dynamics of a diffusion process X. In applications X is only partially observed at times 0 and T > 0. Conditional on these observations, interest lies in inferring parameters in the dynamics of the diffusion and reconstructing the path (Xt, t ∈ [0,T]). The latter problem is known as bridge simulation. We develop a general scheme for bridge sampling in the case of finite dimensional systems of shape landmarks and singular solutions in fluid dynamics. This scheme allows for subsequent statistical inference of properties of the fluid flow or the evolution of observed shapes. It covers stochastic landmark models for which no suitable prior simulation method has been proposed in the literature, that removes restrictions of earlier approaches, improves the handling of the nonlinearity of the con- figuration space leading to more effective sampling schemes, and allows to generalise the common inexact matching scheme to the stochastic setting.
*Fig.:* Starting from an ellipse (initial shape, black), 16 landmarks are transformed representing points on the outline of a human *corpus callosum* (final shape, orange). Here we used the Trouvé-Vialard model (Example 4 of the paper.) The landmarks move along randomized geodesics, the variation of the samples of these curves capture the uncertainty about the actual deformation that took place.
